Hitman 2

Note that in all the graphs the video cards are compared by price.  The most expensive video card by MSRP is on top, while the least expensive video card by MSRP is on bottom.  In this way you can compare pricing from bottom to top and see where performance lies.

In the graph we are using the latest version of Hitman 2.  The game is running in DX12 and we have all of the in-game settings at their maximum values for graphics.  We are using the built-in benchmark (Miami) for testing results and we verified playability in gameplay.  Feel free to test your video cards performance and see how it compares against ours.     

AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT and RX 5700 Hitman 2 Performance at 1440p

In Hitman 2 the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT outperforms the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER just barely.  It is exactly on par with GeForce RTX 2070 FE performance.  The AMD Radeon RX 5700 is just on par with GeForce RTX 2060 performance, usually it’s faster, but in this game it is at the same performance level.  Though all of these video cards are playable at this resolution with the highest settings. 

AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT and RX 5700 Hitman 2 Performance at 1080p

At 1080p we see a bit of a bunching up of the video card performance.  This could be indictive of a CPU bottleneck, or other factors.  Though the numbers are close in performance, the performance scaling is still the same compared to other games.  The Radeon RX 5700 XT is as fast as the RTX 2070 FE, but the 2070 SUPER is faster.  The Radeon RX 5700 is slightly faster than the RTX 2060.  Though at these performance levels all the video cards have similar gameplay experience and are all playable at 1080p.
