Nvidia's RTX 2060 Super was launched as a mid-cycle upgrade to the 2060 back in the Turing generation. Even almost four years after release, it is still better than the minimum requirements of most modern titles. It can handle the latest games like Modern Warfare 3 at decent framerates at 1080p without presenting major performance hiccups.

However, do note that the graphics card isn't capable of running recent titles at their highest graphics settings. Gamers with the Turing-based 2060 Super need to spend some time fine-tuning MW3's graphics options to ensure the best experience in this Call of Duty shooter.

The game packs dozens of customizable graphics options. This article will list the best settings to use in the game when it's running on Nvidia's 2060 Super.
