Graphics Performance
The GeForce RTX 2070 Super with Max-Q Design scores 13,444 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the Mid-Range tier as a Aging generation graphics card. It is built on the Turing (2018−2022) architecture (codename: TU104), manufactured on a 12 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 2560 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 160 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 64 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 5.914 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1155 MHz from a base of 930 MHz.
