Nvidia Rtx 2080 Vs Gtx 1080
Without AMD apparently nipping at its high-end PC heels, Nvidia enjoys some bandwidth to try some crazy things. In this case, those come in the form of proprietary standards for anti-aliasing, ray tracing, and rasterization. We will be covering the software technologies revealed by NVIDIA shortly so stay tuned and don’t forget to comment which GeForce 20 series cards you are going to purchase for your PC in the poll below. There are a lot of design changes that went in developing GDDR56 to achieve the faster transfer speeds, higher bandwidth and in a package that consumers just around the same power or even lower.
Now that we’re a couple of months into the RTX laptop era, it’s time to pause and look at how this first wave of laptops with Nvidia’s hyped-up new mobile graphics technology fares in real-world testing. Unless the tasks you are throwing at it require more than 11GB of graphics memory, it comes very close to the performance of the Titan RTX, for less than half the cost. Synthetic benchmarks don’t accurately predict how a GPU will perform in production, but they do provide a way to compare the cards on test with older models, since scores for a wide range of GPUs are available online. Unlike previous reviews, I haven’t included Cinebench here, since the last version to feature a GPU benchmark is now over six years old. The first set of applications either don’t use OptiX for ray tracing, or don’t make it possible to turn the OptiX backend on and off, so it isn’t possible to assess the impact of RTX acceleration on performance. Without any ray tracing or DLSS features, the investigation showed Shadow of the Tomb Raider to prefer the RTX 2080 Ti at 1080p and 1440p, with clear leads for the older card.

PC World called the super editions a “modest” upgrade for the price, and the 2080 Super chip the “second most-powerful GPU ever released” in terms of speed. In June 2020, graphic cards including the RTX 2060, RTX 2060 Super, RTX 2070 and the gtx 1090 Super were announced as discounted by retailers in expectation of the GeForce RTX 3080 launch. In April 2020, Nvidia announced 100 new laptops licensed to include either GeForce GTX and RTX models. After the initial release, factory overclocked versions were released in the fall of 2018. The first was the “Ti” edition, while the Founders Edition cards were overclocked by default and had a three-year warranty. In January 2019, Tom’s Hardware also stated the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Xtreme was “the fastest gaming graphics card available,” although it criticized the loudness of the cooling solution, the size and heat output in PC cases.
In Hitman, for example, the breezed through Agent 47’s Paris catwalk benchmark with an average frame rate of 78fps on Ultra at 4K, and even hitting an average of 93fps on Ultra at 1440p. That’s a couple of frames ahead of the GTX 1080Ti, but highly-optimised games such as Doom and Wolfenstein II showed even greater gains. Here, the RTX 2080 was hitting up to 120fps in both shooters on max settings at 4K, while the GTX 1080Ti often maxed out around the 100fps mark. Neither of these results will be much use if you only have a 60Hz monitor, of course, but those with higher refresh rate screens may appreciate the extra leeway. Across the board, the RTX 2080 proved itself a highly capable card that’s got more than enough chops for 4K gaming on high graphics settings, as well as a very admirable partner for those after max settings at higher refresh rates further down the resolution scale.
RTX graphics cards are optimized for your favorite streaming apps to provide maximum performance for your live stream. This wasn’t the only game where the GTX 1080Ti got the upper hand, either, as both The Witcher III and Final Fantasy XV saw Nvidia’s previous gen card pip the RTX 2080 to the frame rate post. In The Witcher III, the GTX 1080Ti hit a solid 60fps on Ultra at 4K compared to the RTX 2080’s occasional dips down to 50fps, while Final Fantasy XV saw an even bigger gap start to emerge.
The GeForce RTX 2080 takes the GeForce platform to the next level with a range of new features aside from performance which we will be detailed completely. In games, you’ll witness an even bigger jump in performance if you choose to pick up this new RTX graphics card. Meanwhile, at 4K the Nvidia RTX 2080 is hitting as high as 60 fps, and that’s damn impressive. GeForce RTX™ graphics cardsare powered by the Turing GPU architecture and the RTX platform. This gives you up to 6X the performance of previous-generation graphics cards and brings the power of real-time ray tracing and AI-powered DLSS 2.0 to games. So if the price tag of the Titan RTX makes you uneasy, one alternative would be to buy two RTX 2080 Ti cards.
In the V-Ray trolls scene, the Titan RTX – in which the entire scene fits into on-board memory – performs much better than the GeForce Ti, while the GeForce RTX 2080 won’t render the scene at all. Neither the 2080 nor the 2080 Ti will render the other two scenes, crashing every time in the V-Ray architectural scene, and quitting with out-of-memory errors in the Arnold for Maya scene. The viewport benchmarks include many of the key DCC applications – both general-purpose 3D software like 3ds Max, Blender and Maya, and more specialist tools like Substance Painter – plus CAD package SolidWorks and game engine Unreal Engine. If you discount the Titan RTX, which occupies a halfway house between traditional gaming and workstation cards, it’s Nvidia’s current top-of-the-range consumer GPU.
