What we don't like about Palit GeForce RTX 2060 Super Dual

  • Plasticky build quality and lack of a premium aesthetic
  • Can run hot (up to 80°C+) in poorly ventilated cases or summer conditions
  • Fans do not always have an idle/zero-RPM mode on this specific 'Dual' model
  • Older architecture compared to current RTX 30/40 series cards
  • Some users report audible fan noise when the card is under 100% load

Verdict

The Palit GeForce RTX 2060 Super Dual is a high-performance Turing-based graphics card featuring 2,176 CUDA cores, a base clock of 1470 MHz, and a boost clock of 1650 MHz. It is equipped with 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM on a 256-bit bus, delivering 448 GB/s bandwidth to support smooth 1080p and 1440p gaming with real-time ray tracing and DLSS capabilities. Main pros include its expanded memory over the original 2060, a compact dual-slot design with 90mm axial fans for efficient cooling, and a solid 175W TDP that balances power and performance. However, some users note that the fans can become audible under heavy loads and its plastic shroud lacks the premium feel found on high-end models.
