GeForce RTX 2060 vs Quadro P620: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GeForce RTX 2060

2019

Why buy it

  • 268.0% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Delivers 85.9% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 40.4 vs 21.8 G3D/$ ($349 MSRP vs $170 MSRP).
  • Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
  • 200% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (6 GB vs 2 GB).
  • Better long-term bet: Turing (2018−2022) on 12nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 300% higher power demand at 160W vs 40W.
  • 57.9% longer card at 229mm vs 145mm.

Quadro P620

2018

Why buy it

  • Costs $179 less on MSRP ($170 MSRP vs $349 MSRP).
  • Draws 40W instead of 160W, a 120W reduction.
  • Measures 145mm instead of 229mm, a 84mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 2060 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 2 GB vs 6 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • No DLSS support; it relies on Upscaling support instead.
  • 2018 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 21.8 vs 40.4 G3D/$ ($170 MSRP vs $349 MSRP).

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 2060 is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 268.0% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 281.7% in PassMark G3D (14,114 vs 3,698), so the answer here is pretty clean.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 2060 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 6 GB vs 2 GB of VRAM, the newer upscaling stack, DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, a 12nm process instead of 14nm, and 30 vs 0 ray-tracing units. That gives it more room for heavier textures and higher settings over time.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GeForce RTX 2060 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $179 more expensive on MSRP at $349 vs $170, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 85.9% (40.4 vs 21.8), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.
