    About the measurement and source
    A · NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060

    1,712.1 samples/min · community measurement, sample 255 · November 14, 2026

    Blender Open Data (Blender Foundation)

    Median of 255 submissions (12 outliers excluded), interquartile range 1566.86–1816.88; submissions 2022-03-09 to 2022-07-01; OPTIX backend. Snapshot 2026-11-14.

    B · NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q

    Blender Open Data (Blender Foundation)

    Median of 57 submissions (5 outliers excluded), interquartile range 1810.47–1909.13; submissions 2022-05-21 to 2022-06-18; OPTIX backend. Snapshot 2026-11-14.

    difference = |A − B| ÷ the smaller value × 100%. The 5% noticeable threshold is a UX heuristic, not statistical significance.

    Cycles render in Blender Benchmark. Median of the sum of samples per minute over three scenes after removing outliers.

    Clocks of different architectures do not reflect performance directly. For laptop chips, the clock depends on the laptop’s power limit.
