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

  • +15.2% higher PassMark G3D performance.
  • Costs $1,850 less on MSRP ($349 MSRP vs $2,199 MSRP).
  • Delivers 626% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 40.4 vs 5.6 G3D/$ ($349 MSRP vs $2,199 MSRP).
  • Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
  • Better long-term bet: Turing (2018−2022) on 12nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Radeon Pro WX 9100 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 6 GB vs 16 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.

Radeon Pro WX 9100

2017

Why buy it

  • 7.2% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Radeon Pro WX 9100 is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 7.2% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward GeForce RTX 2060 instead at 14,114 vs 12,250, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.
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: a 12nm process instead of 14nm, 30 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2019 generation instead of 2017. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GeForce RTX 2060 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $1,850 cheaper on MSRP at $349 vs $2,199, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 626% (40.4 vs 5.6), which is enough to swing the recommendation its way. Radeon Pro WX 9100 still makes more sense if max raw gaming performance matters more than value.
