Power, Temperatures, & Noise
Last, but not least of course, is our look at power, temperatures, and noise levels. While a high performing card is good in its own right, an excellent card can deliver great performance while also keeping power consumption and the resulting noise levels in check.
GeForce Video Card Voltages | |||||
RTX 2070S Boost | RTX 2070 Boost | RTX 2060S Boost | RTX 2060 Boost | ||
1.043v | 1.05v | 1.043v | 1.043v |
Looking quickly at boost voltages, there aren’t any big surprises. Like the non-Super cards they’re based on, both of the new Super cards will max out at either 1.043v or 1.05v at their highest boost bin. In reality, these cards are typically not boosting quite so high due to TDP limits, in which case power consumption is often under a volt(a).
GeForce Video Card Average Clockspeeds | |||||
Game | RTX 2080 | RTX 2070S | RTX 2070 | RTX 2060S | |
Max Boost Clock | 1900MHz | 1950MHz | 1875MHz | 1950MHz | |
Boost Clock | 1710MHz | 1770MHz | 1620MHz | 1650MHz | |
Tomb Raider | 1785MHz | 1875MHz | 1725MHz | 1800MHz | |
F1 2019 | 1785MHz | 1875MHz | 1770MHz | 1815MHz | |
Assassin's Creed | 1815MHz | 1890MHz | 1785MHz | 1860MHz | |
Metro Exodus | 1785MHz | 1875MHz | 1725MHz | 1815MHz | |
Strange Brigade | 1770MHz | 1875MHz | 1725MHz | 1800MHz | |
Total War: TK | 1785MHz | 1875MHz | 1725MHz | 1815MHz | |
The Division 2 | 1740MHz | 1845MHz | 1680MHz | 1755MHz | |
Grand Theft Auto V | 1815MHz | 1890MHz | 1785MHz | 1860MHz | |
Forza Horizon 4 | 1800MHz | 1890MHz | 1785MHz | 1875MHz |
Meanwhile the average in-game clockspeeds largely echo NVIDIA’s official claims. The new Super cards tend to have higher clockspeeds, owing to their higher starting points within NVIDIA’s specifications. These higher clockspeeds allow these cards to punch a bit harder than they otherwise would, narrowing the gap with their RTX 2080/2070 analogs. The trade-off for this is that TDP becomes a very careful balancing act, as these higher clockspeeds are farther up on the voltage/frequency curve where the underlying GPUs aren’t quite as efficient.
