GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile)

2023

Why buy it

✅Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
✅More future proof: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.
✅Draws 115W instead of 300W, a 185W reduction.

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than Radeon Instinct MI60 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌Less VRAM, with 6 GB vs 8 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 1.9 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $6,000 MSRP).

Radeon Instinct MI60

2018

Why buy it

✅0.3% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
✅Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 1.9 vs 0 G3D/$ ($6,000 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
✅33.3% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (8 GB vs 6 GB).

Trade-offs

❌No DLSS support; it relies on FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead.
❌Limited future-proofing: older hardware, 8 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in upcoming AAA games.
❌160.9% higher power demand at 300W vs 115W.

Quick Answers

So, is Radeon Instinct MI60 better than GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile)?

Yes. Radeon Instinct MI60 is clearly the better overall GPU here. Radeon Instinct MI60 averages 0.3% more FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 11,638 vs 11,353 in G3D Mark. On top of that, Radeon Instinct MI60 is a 2018 card with FSR upscaling, while GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) is a 2023 model from an older generation with DLSS Super Resolution. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.

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

GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2023 generation instead of 2018, the stronger feature stack with DLSS Super Resolution instead of FSR upscaling, and a 5nm process instead of 7nm. That broader feature stack should age better as more games lean on modern upscaling and frame-generation support.

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

Radeon Instinct MI60 can still make sense if you find it at the right price, especially around $6,000 MSRP. Radeon Instinct MI60 is still the smarter buy for most people, though, because the raw performance is close while the overall package is cleaner. Radeon Instinct MI60 is priced in an unclear MSRP range at $6,000 MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 0.3% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and 2.5% higher G3D Mark. GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) is the newer 2023 card, so it still has a real case if you care more about newer architecture, lower power draw (115W vs 300W), and future-proofing than about squeezing out the strongest gaming value today.

When does GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) make more sense than Radeon Instinct MI60?

Yes. GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) is still an excellent gaming GPU in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. It makes more sense if your priority is newer architecture, lower power draw (115W vs 300W), future-proofing, and staying closer to an unclear MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of Radeon Instinct MI60. The trade-off is that Radeon Instinct MI60 currently gives you 2.5% higher G3D Mark and 0.3% more estimated average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 100+%.
