Galax / KFA2 GeForce RTX 2060 1-Click OC review – real savings buns or forced minimalism? | igorsLAB

The GeForce RTX 2060 1-Click OC from KFA2 deliberately places itself at the lower end of all GeForce RTX 2060, which is also expressed in the purchase price. But in addition to the savings that the manufacturer has to make for this, there are also various restrictions by the chip manufacturer, which must be reconciled. You can read what exactly it is about and what came out in the end in this test.

Overclocking

When factory condition, the card already sprints to 1785 to 1800 MHz in the heated state, only to be brutally braked by the power limit. However, what KFA2 calls 1-Click-OC can be dismissed as a nice gimmick, because there is no air up, because the power limit is not increased with it. The meagre 15 MHz increase at the base clock is no longer noticeable at all on the heated card. The performance is identical in the measurement inaccuracies of both variants except for the decimal point.

The rest is told quickly, because you can raise the bar manually, but it just does zero-point nothing, because Nvidia’s boost closes. I forcibly flashed a BIOS of another card with a non-A chip, but even then not much is actually happening anymore. So you’re going to have to live with it. Only with memory there are up to 400 MHz more in it, if you dare. However, the measurable effect remains within an extremely manageable framework.

We see that the difference to the GeForce RTX 2060 Founders Edition is less than two percent, depending on the game. The gaming performance is surprisingly the same, which is also due to the fact that the cooler is not so bad.
