Gigabyte RTX2060 Windforce OC 6Gb Graphic Card

Gigabyte RTX 2060 Windforce OC 6GB Graphics Card:

The Gigabyte GeForce RTX™ 2060 Windforce OC 6G Graphics Card is a performance-segment graphics card powered by the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 GPU. It’s designed to deliver an enhanced gaming experience with features like real-time ray tracing and AI-enhanced graphics. The “Windforce OC” in its name refers to Gigabyte’s custom cooling solution and a factory overclock for improved performance out of the box.

Key Features for Immersive Gaming:

This graphics card is built on NVIDIA’s Turing architecture, featuring 1920 CUDA Cores, 120 Texture Mapping Units (TMUs), 48 ROPs, 240 Tensor Cores, and 30 Ray Tracing (RT) Cores. These dedicated RT Cores enable real-time ray tracing, delivering physically accurate shadows, reflections, and global illumination for incredibly realistic visuals in supported games. The Tensor Cores accelerate AI workloads, which are used for features like NVIDIA’s DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) to boost frame rates while maintaining image quality.

The “OC” in its name signifies that it comes with a factory overclocked core clock of 1770 MHz (compared to the reference card’s 1680 MHz), providing a performance boost for demanding games and applications. It is integrated with 6GB of GDDR6 RAM on a 192-bit memory interface, offering a memory bandwidth of 336 GB/s, which is crucial for handling high-resolution textures and complex scenes.

The WINDFORCE 2X Cooling System is a key highlight, featuring two 100mm unique blade fans. These fans utilize “Alternate Spinning” technology, a Gigabyte patent that rotates adjacent fans in opposite directions. This design effectively reduces turbulent airflow between the fans, enhancing airflow pressure and improving heat dissipation efficiency. The cooling system also includes composite copper heat pipes that directly touch the GPU and cover the VRAM through a large metal plate for optimal heat transfer. The 3D Active Fan feature provides semi-passive cooling, meaning the fans remain off when the GPU is under a low load or temperature, allowing for silent operation during less demanding tasks.

Connectivity options include three DisplayPort 1.4 outputs and one HDMI 2.0b output, supporting a maximum digital resolution of 7680 x 4320 @ 60 Hz. The card is built with a 4+2 power phase design and Ultra Durable certified chokes and capacitors for enhanced durability and overclocking stability. It also features a protective back plate for structural reinforcement and aesthetics.
