We begin with our usual pages that show the ins and outs of this graphics card with photos, all taken with an in-house photo-shoot of course. MSI does offer a really proper looking card here with a dark PCB and dual-fan cooler.
The Gaming Z of the GeForce RTX 2060 is powered by NVIDIA's more modest offering in Turing, the A revision TU106 graphics processor. So it really is a modified version of the Turing TU106 GPU used in the GeForce RTX 2070, the GeForce RTX 2060 brings the GeForce RTX architecture, including DLSS and (Hybrid) raytracing, to the midrange GPU segment. These cards are fitted with 6 GB GDDR6 memory running at an effective data rate of 14 Gbps, which is the same value as the 2070/2080 cards. The product will sell for roughly 379 USD/EUR (at least it should be in that range).
The card has a new gunmetal look dual-fan design (TwinFrozr 7) and has been fitted with one HDMI port and three DisplayPort connector. Interestingly enough MSI stripped away the DVI and space-occupying virtual link connector for VR purposes. The GeForce RTX series has DisplayPort 1.4 connectors 1.4a Ready, enabling support for 8K displays at 60Hz.
- Boost: 1,830 MHz / Base: 1,365 MHz
- Memory 14.0 Gbps GDDR6 (effective data-rate)
Leaving out these display ports creates room for an exhaust vent. Mind you. lacking is a virtual link and NVLINK connector, SLI is not supported much like the RTX 2070. Currently, the only RTX cards that are SLI compatible are the GeForce RTX 2080 and 2080 Ti
