✅Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 41.3 vs 0 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
✅Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than RTX A4500 Mobile across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌Less VRAM, with 8 GB vs 16 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌Weaker long-term outlook: RTX A4500 Mobile is the safer future-proof pick thanks to newer hardware and better gaming feature support.
❌25% higher power demand at 175W vs 140W.

RTX A4500 Mobile

2022

Why buy it

✅21.2% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.

Quick Answers

So, is RTX A4500 Mobile better than GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER?

Yes. RTX A4500 Mobile is the better GPU overall here. You are getting 21.2% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data, 0.8% higher PassMark G3D performance, and 16 GB vs 8 GB of VRAM. It also comes from 2022 instead of 2019, which helps its case as the more complete modern gaming card.

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

RTX A4500 Mobile is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2022 generation instead of 2019, more VRAM at 16 GB instead of 8 GB, the stronger feature stack with no meaningful modern upscaling stack instead of DLSS Super Resolution, and a 8nm process instead of 12nm. That extra memory headroom makes it the safer pick for newer games, heavier textures, and higher settings over time.

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

RTX A4500 Mobile is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus $399 MSRP, and you are getting 21.2% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 0.8% higher G3D Mark. GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER still holds the G3D-per-dollar lead, so the performance win comes with a real value premium. If you are comfortable paying the premium for the stronger gaming result, RTX A4500 Mobile is the one to buy. If staying closer to budget matters more, GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER still makes more sense on price alone and remains capable enough for modern gaming.

Is GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

Yes. GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is still a strong gaming GPU in 2026: it is very strong for 1080p, good for 1440p, and more limited at 4K. This mostly comes down to price. If you want to stay closer to $399 MSRP, it remains a strong choice; if you are comfortable paying more, RTX A4500 Mobile earns that extra money with a clearly stronger gaming result and a more complete overall package.
