What the card is

The MSI RTX 2060 VENTUS XS 6G OC V1 is a GeForce RTX 2060 graphics card with 6GB GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus and a boost clock of 1710 MHz. It targets 1440p gaming and VR workloads that benefit from 1920 CUDA cores and DirectX 12 support.

Build fit and outputs

The dual-slot card measures 8.07" x 5.04" and connects via PCI Express 3.0 x16. One HDMI 2.0b and three DisplayPort 1.4 connectors drive up to four monitors at 7680 x 4320 resolution. The 160 W TDP keeps power draw predictable for a suitably rated power supply.

Sustained-load behaviour

The Ventus XS dual-fan cooler dissipates heat from the 160 W GPU during extended sessions. GDDR6 running at 14 Gbps feeds the 1920 cores without throttling the 1710 MHz boost clock. Stable thermals maintain consistent frame rates in long gaming or rendering runs.

Questions about this item

Will the 160W TDP become the first limit under sustained load?

The 160W thermal design power is the rated ceiling; the dual-slot cooler with twin fans is built to dissipate that heat continuously, so the power limit is reached before the cooling capacity is exceeded.

How loud and hot does the dual-fan cooler get when the card runs at 1710 MHz all day?

The two fans on the 8.07-inch dual-slot board move enough air to keep the 160W TDP in check, so temperatures and noise stay at typical mid-range levels during extended sessions.

What power connector and PSU headroom does the 160W board need?

The card draws up to 160W through a single 8-pin PCIe connector on the PCI Express 3.0 x16 interface, so the system power supply must provide that connector and enough spare wattage for the rest of the build.
