Prime Day: Asus RTX 2060 OC EVO, GPU at a very low price (€246.99)

The right plan

Launched in 2019, the RTX 2060 is no longer young. However, at the end of this dark period of shortage of components, it still has something to smile about gamers.

This graphics card thus embeds a TU106 chipequipped with 1,920 CUDA compute unitsof 240 Tensor Cores for AI calculations and 30 RT Cores for Ray Tracing. She is accompanied by 6GB GDDR6 VRAM. This little chip clocked at 1365MHzdelivers very good performance in Full-HD. If she supports Ray Tracingthis is done on the other hand at the cost of sacrifices at the level of the frame ratedespite the DLSS which raises the bar a bit. But what does it matter since this small card still has resources to play the latest games in 1080p and will even delight lovers of competitive games who will appreciate being able to exceed the 144Hz in QHD 1440p on some titles.

This model custom from home Asus is very compact and integrated 2 fans above the radiator. L’Asus Dual RTX 2060 OC EVO Edition is obviously overclocked factory and thus runs at 1635MHz, enough to benefit from a nice performance gain compared to a model Founder Edition. A touch of RGBa semi-passive cooling (0 dB mode) and a backplate end up convincing us.

You guessed it, this little card is not for gamers who want it pinnacle performance, but rather to those who want an extra card or a small GPUs to accompany a small modest PC, cut to play competitive games in very good conditions. Although old, it still has a good reserve of power to launch recent titles at 60fpssometimes at the cost of some graphic concessions, but nothing serious, especially for the price.
