When it comes to battle royal games, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) is one of the most popular titles. The gameplay is fun, simple, and addictive – a big map, huge amount of players on it, and the last man standing wins. Probably it sounds like a piece of cake but it isn’t. If you want to survive you have to scavenge for ammo and weapons and if you want to win the match you need to play strategically and yes – have some patience, don’t rush at all.
The game isn’t that heavy – old GPUs like GeForce GTX 1050 or 1050 ti are good enough for 60 FPS on Low. On the other hand, let’s see what the VIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 (90W) and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 (115W) are capable of.

| PUBG | Full HD, V.Low (Check settings) | Full HD, Medium (Check settings) | Full HD, High (Check settings) | Full HD, Ultra (Check settings) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GeForce RTX 2060 [90W] | 173 fps | 145 fps | 134 fps | 115 fps (+1%) |
| GeForce RTX 2060 [115W] | 198 fps (+14%) | 159 fps (+10%) | 146 fps (+9%) | 114 fps |
Verdict
The performance of the two GPUs is decent. No matter the TGP level, you can probably expect 100+ FPS on every preset that the game offers. Despite that, the 90W version is around 10% slower until switching to Ultra settings. On this preset, our two rivals show almost equal FPS results.
