The GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q is a mobile graphics chip by NVIDIA, launched on January 29th, 2020. Built on the 12 nm process, and based on the TU106 graphics processor, in its N18E-G1 variant, the chip supports DirectX 12 Ultimate. This ensures that all modern games will run on GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q. Additionally, the DirectX 12 Ultimate capability guarantees support for hardware-raytracing, variable-rate shading and more, in upcoming video games. The TU106 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 445 mm² and 10,800 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked GeForce RTX 2070, which uses the same GPU but has all 2304 shaders enabled, NVIDIA has disabled some shading units on the GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q to reach the product's target shader count. It features 1920 shading units, 120 texture mapping units, and 48 ROPs. Also included are 240 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. The card also has 30 raytracing acceleration cores. NVIDIA has paired 6 GB GDDR6 memory with the GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q, which are connected using a 192-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 975 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1185 MHz, memory is running at 1375 MHz (11 Gbps effective).
Being a mxm module card, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 65 W maximum. This device has no display connectivity, as it is not designed to have monitors connected to it. Rather it is intended for use in laptop/notebooks and will use the output of the host mobile device. GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 3.0 x16 interface.
