Nvidia RTX 2060 Founders Edition 6GB Review

Here, we take a further look at the impact of our overclock, looking at the increased temperatures, acoustics, power draw, and lastly, the effect had on the average clock speed.

Overview

The 2060 Founders was able to cope with the extra frequency (and heat) very well. The GPU temperature rose 4C, which is still only a peak of 72C, and noise emissions peaked at just under 43dB – still a very good result for an overclocked Founders card, and still quieter than a stock-clocked GTX 1060 Founders Edition.

In terms of power, we saw the card draw almost 30W more, bringing the total power draw to 190.1W – so only marginally more than a reference clocked RTX 2070 card. The last metric to look at is average frequency, and here the card fell just short of the magic 2GHz figure, but an average clock speed of 1982MHz is still very impressive for a Founders card.
