What does this comparison mean?
The RTX 5060 Ti 16GB improves the recorded average and offers 4GB more memory than the RTX 2060 12GB. Check the Ti's capacity explicitly: its separate 8GB version would reverse the memory advantage. The extra capacity and the benchmark gain answer different questions; neither proves the speed of a particular editing, rendering or gaming workload.
RTX 2060 12GB has 12GB and RTX 5060 Ti 16GB has 16GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.

The two GPUs in context
RTX 2060 12GB
This is the later 12GB GDDR6 RTX 2060, retaining Turing architecture. MSI documented a December 2021 release for its 12GB board.
RTX 5060 Ti 16GB
This is the 16GB GDDR7 RTX 5060 Ti, introduced in April 2025. NVIDIA also offers a separate 8GB Ti configuration.

How the figures are compared
Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage compares the higher model average with the lower one using the original FPS values. Our rating uses a compressed scale, with the fastest GPU at 100; it is separate from the percentage difference. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS.
GPUsed reports its physical-card checks typically last 30 to 60 minutes while temperature and stability are checked. The owner supplied the model-level FPS workbook on 2 October 2026; this benchmark dataset was last reconciled 3 October 2026. Historical cards tested are separate from the number of FPS runs behind a model average. Full benchmark method.
