Core clock speed	no data	1500 MHz
Boost clock speed	1650 MHz	3000 MHz
Number of transistors	10,800 million	25,390 million
Manufacturing process technology	12 nm	4 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	184 Watt	54 Watt (35 - 54 Watt TGP)
Texture fill rate	224.4	139.2

Form factor & compatibility

Information on GeForce RTX 2060 12 GB and Radeon 780M compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility). For notebook video cards it's notebook size, connection slot and bus, if the video card is inserted into a slot instead of being soldered to the notebook motherboard.
