GeForce RTX 2060

2019

Why buy it

✅1008.7% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
✅Delivers 349.7% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 40.4 vs 9.0 G3D/$ ($349 MSRP vs $130 MSRP).
✅Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
✅500% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (6 GB vs 1 GB).
✅More future proof: Turing (2018−2022) on 12nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌86% higher power demand at 160W vs 86W.

Radeon HD 5750

2009

Why buy it

✅Costs $219 less on MSRP ($130 MSRP vs $349 MSRP).
✅Draws 86W instead of 160W, a 74W reduction.

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 2060 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌Less VRAM, with 1 GB vs 6 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌No DLSS support; it relies on FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead.
❌Very weak future-proofing: 2009-era hardware with 1 GB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 9.0 vs 40.4 G3D/$ ($130 MSRP vs $349 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 2060 better than Radeon HD 5750?

Yes. GeForce RTX 2060 is clearly the better overall GPU here. GeForce RTX 2060 averages 1008.7% more FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 14,114 vs 1,169 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 2060 is a 2019 card with DLSS Super Resolution, while Radeon HD 5750 is a 2009 model from an older generation with FSR upscaling. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

GeForce RTX 2060 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2019 generation instead of 2009, 1107.4% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 6 GB instead of 1 GB, and the stronger feature stack with DLSS Super Resolution instead of FSR upscaling. That leaves it with more room for heavier textures, tougher ray tracing loads, and higher-end 1440p or 4K gaming over the next few years.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

GeForce RTX 2060 is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce RTX 2060 is about 168.5% more expensive on MSRP at $349 MSRP versus $130 MSRP, and you are getting 1008.7% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 1107.4% higher G3D Mark. Radeon HD 5750 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is Radeon HD 5750 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. Radeon HD 5750 is 2009 hardware with 1 GB of VRAM, 1,169 in G3D Mark, and FSR upscaling. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.
