Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti: Which should you buy?
The Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti spent a couple of years as the unchallenged dominant force in the GPU world, but that’s all changed now with the arrival of the RTX 2080.
The Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti follows the Ti tradition with an alarming spec increase over the standard RTX 2080 – and a price so high that it would once have been in the “pros only” category of card.
But with new features such as ray tracing and DLSS, the RTX 2080 Ti looks to be an even more formidable rival to the GTX 1080 Ti than we first anticipated.
But is it worth the outlay? Let’s take a look at how special the RTX 2080 Ti is, and compare it to its predecessor the Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti.
Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti — Overview
Nvidia’s 10-series graphics card arrived more than two years before those of this new Turing generation. However, the GTX 1080 Ti was not in that first May 2016 wave of releases.
It arrived almost a year later, announced in March 2017. As such, it’s almost 18 months older than the RTX 2080 Ti.
Nvidia’s RTX series was officially detailed on 20 August, a month before its 20 September available date.

Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti – Price and release date
The Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti is a completely different proposition to the GTX 1080 Ti in terms of cost. Where the older model originally cost £699 (its real-world price rose quickly, mind), this one will set you back £1099.
That gets you the Founders Edition card, which is overclocked as standard. MSi and Gigabyte have already launched rival designs, with the former’s model using a triple-fan layout, and they actually cost more than Nvidia’s own at launch.
The 2017 GTX 1080 Ti’s current cost is, by comparison, a near-sensible £639-£730. Price drops are expected. Of course, like most graphics cards, we’ve seen higher prices in its lifespan thanks to the increased demand caused by Bitcoin miners.
However, it would have taken a supply disaster for the old GTX 1080 Ti to remotely approach the cost of the 2080 Ti.
The GTX 1080 Ti, which went on sale in March 2017, is still available to buy. The RTX 2080 Ti was released as recently as September 2018.
Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti – Performance
With a gulfing difference in price between the GTX 1080 Ti and RTX 2080 Ti, you’d expect the latter to have a pretty meaty performance boost.
After benchmarking a slew of games in 4K with maxed out graphic settings, we can attest that there’s a noticeable frame rate improvement across the board. In most cases, the RTX 2080 Ti hits the gold standard of 60fps, only falling short with the ultra-intensive Ghost Recon Wildlands.
The gaming rig that we used for all of our benchmarks had the following components:
- Motherboard: Asus Prime Z370
- Processor: Intel Core i7-8700K (not overclocked)
- RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2666MHz, 16GB DDR4
- Cooler: Corsair H60 liquid cooler
- PSU: Corsair CX750M
- SSD: Samsung 850 EVO
- OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
GTX 1080 Ti (4K) | RTX 2080 Ti (4K) | RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti (4K) | |
Shadow of the Tomb Raider | 44 | 57 | +29.6% |
Ghost Recon Wildlands |
37.1 | 45.9 | +23.7% |
Dirt Rally | 93.9 | 117.4 | +25% |
Ashes of the Singularity | 53.3 | 65 | +22% |
But while the RTX 2080 Ti results show a satisfying frame rate spike for 4K performance, the difference in benchmark scores for HD content was underwhelming. With the GTX 1080 Ti already delivering exceptional results for games at 1920×1080, the RTX 2080 Ti struggles to deliver a significant boost.
That’s not really a surprise though, nor a significant issue. Given the RTX 2080 Ti’s steep price, anyone considering buying the graphics card has likely already bought a 4K monitor. But if, for some reason, you are still committed to a HD setup, then these results prove that the GTX 1080 Ti definitely represents better value.
GTX 1080 Ti (HD) | RTX 2080 Ti (HD) | RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti (HD) | |
Shadow of the Tomb Raider | 104 | 110 | +5.8% |
Ghost Recon Wildlands |
69.07 | 71.30 | +3.2% |
Dirt Rally | 135.27 | 140.82 | +4.1% |
Admittedly, we’ve been limited to a few games for benchmarking. We intend on posting more benchmark scores once we’ve got our hands on more review codes.
For now, though, Nvidia has has provided some in-house 4K benchmarking results that can be seen below. Of course, it’s best advised to take their results with a pinch of salt, but the Shadow of the Tomb Raider results shown below do match up with our own tests.
Nvidia’s test rig had the following specification:
- Processor: Intel Core i9-7900X 3.3GHz CPU
- RAM: 16GB Corsair DDR4
- Motherboard: Asus X299 Rampage VI Apex
- OS: Windows 10 (v1803) 64-bit

Note that we’re likely to see some new motherboards hitting shelves in the coming months which should see you able to push frame rates even further. Intel’s new 9th generation i9 CPU is also likely to give these benchmark results a boost. Once we’ve finished our testing process, we’ll be able to let you know for certain.
In terms of noise, the 2080 Ti Founders Edition is significantly quieter than its 1080 Ti counterpart, as you can see in the graphs below.

Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti – Specs
RTX 2080 Ti | GTX 1080 Ti | |
Generation | Turing | Pascal |
Announcement | August 2018 | March 2017 |
Cuda cores | 4352 | 3584 |
Tensor cores | Y | N |
Base speed | 1350 | 1493 |
Boost speed | 1545 | 1582 |
RAM | 11GB GDDR6 | 11 GB GDDR5X |
Memory speed | 14Gbps | 10Gbps |
Memory bandwidth | 616 GB/sec | 484GB/sec |
Power draw | 250W | 250W |
Rec. system power | 650W | 600W |
The Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti has roughly 21.5% more CUDA cores than the GTX 1080 Ti; 4352 to 3584. Just like the step-down RTX 2080, though, quoted Boost clock speed is actually slightly lower in the new model.
It’s 1545MHz in the RTX 2080 Ti, and 1582MHz in the GTX 1080 Ti. However, such a small difference isn’t that meaningful and the actual speeds used will vary between manufacturer cards anyway. The Founders Edition card’s clock speed is 1635MHz, for example.
Memory bandwidth is more important. Like the GTX 1080 Ti, the RTX 2080 Ti has 11GB of RAM, but it’s of the GDDR6 variety rather than GDDR5x. Memory bandwidth is up from 484GB/sec to 616GB/sec – a 27% increase.
Capability increases of 21-27% don’t sound too impressive when you consider that the RTX 2080 Ti costs 50% more than the GTX 1080 Ti.
The performance difference between the RTX 2080 Ti and GTX 1080 Ti with current games is unlikely to be eye-opening. And certainly not ‘£1000 eye-opening’. However, there’s more to the RTX range.
It features the Tensor core hardware previously only seen in the far more expensive $10,000 Tesla V100 and $3000 Titan V cards. This, combined with the new Turing SM and RT Core, is what makes the Turing generation interesting.
This new hardware provides AI-assisted real-time ray tracing. The RT Core handles the ray tracing, and the Tensor core is designed for denoising, which would be used to make graphics look sharper and cleaner in games.
Nvidia says you’ll get up to 6x performance in this field with a Turing card.
What this means in practice is we’ll see games developers start to implement more advanced reflection and shadow effects. The trailer for the RTX optimised version of Battlefield V shows off these effects best.
Battlefield V uses the Frostbite engine. Unreal Engine 4 also showed off the effects of real-time ray tracing to incredible effect back in March:
The GTX 1080 Ti won’t be unable to create these effects, but the performance hit for such advanced graphical effects will be greater. As long as developers fully buy into these ideas, RTX cards could offer quite a distinct appeal.
However, in terms of getting modern games to run well, the GTX 1080 Ti still has plenty of life remaining. We found it can play demanding games at 60fps – not just at 4K but a 5K resolution too. And with more modest improvements in the number of CUDA cores and RAM speed, some of you may still want to consider the older card if the price drops are appealing enough.
Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti – Verdict
If you’ll tolerate nothing less than optimum 4K performance, then the RTX 2080 Ti deserves the crown here.
There’s only a handful games that you won’t be able to run at 60fps in 4K with an RTX 2080 Ti slapped into your gaming rig. The GTX 1080 Ti often struggles to achieve the same standard with new AAA releases.
And once ray tracing and DLSS updates finally unlock the RTX 2080 Ti’s full potential, this graphics card is likely to blitz through the competition.
But don’t forget, the RTX 2080 Ti costs a pretty penny. The colossus price difference between the two GPUs is enough to make most people consider the GTX 1080 Ti instead, especially since it still packs enough power to deliver solid 4K experiences for the next few years.

GTX 1080 Ti vs RTX 2080 Ti: Which should you buy?
Eighteen months after it debuted as the undisputed champion of Nvidia’s consumer graphics card lineup, the GTX 1080 Ti relinquished its throne to the RTX 2080 Ti. As well as boasting better raw performance, the new flagship adds features like hardware acceleration for real-time ray tracing and deep learning super sampling — technology that could change the way we play games. Of course, all of this comes at a price, and for the RTX 2080 Ti, that price often reaches four figures. Is the RTX 2080 Ti worth the upgrade, or does the GTX 1080 Ti remain a credible option — especially if you can find it used at a good price? In this article, we’ll give you all the information you need to make that decision for yourself.
The new RTX branding for the new Turing cards suggest a seismic shift in what GPUs can do, so we’ll first look at these new features to see whether they’re worth the early adopter tax. Real-time ray tracing (RTX) offers more realistic visuals and deep learning super sampling (DLSS) could provide a performance advantage, but how many games support this new technology and what kind of numbers are we talking about? There are other new additions too, so it’s worth discussing all of this in a little more detail so you can know what you’re getting yourself into.
Of course, outside of games that support these new features, raw performance is the most important metric. We’ll show you exactly what kind of frame-rates you can expect in some of the most demanding recent games, including a smorgasbord of 4K results and an in-depth analysis of 1080p and 1440p high-fps performance too.
Pricing and availability are the final pieces of the puzzle, as an all-singing, all-dancing new graphics card isn’t worth considering unless you can actually get your hands on one for a reasonable price. Before we head into the head-to-head, it’s also worth noting that we’ve covered some of these issues in greater detail in our full GeForce RTX 2080 and 2080 Ti review, so feel free to open that up in a new tab to read later.
The RTX 2080 Ti is the fastest graphics card in the world.
RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti: feature comparison
Deep learning super-sampling (DLSS)
Let’s start with DLSS, because it could be the single most important feature to debut on the new RTX cards. That’s because in games that support it, DLSS can provide an incredible performance boost that launches the RTX 2080 and 2080 Ti clear of the competing GTX 1080 Ti by a considerable margin. That extra performance can be key to offsetting the graphical demands of real-time ray tracing, or merely running new games at the high frame-rates demanded by modern 144Hz or 240Hz monitors.
So how does this new technique actually deliver these performance gains? We’ve covered the topic in an in-depth DLSS feature, but essentially DLSS is a shortcut: a game is rendered at a lower resolution than your screen’s native resolution, then upscaled using an efficient deep learning algorithm that has been fed extremely high resolution imagery of the game. This allows the algorithm to fill in the gaps and produce a final image that looks similar to a standard full-size image, while only using around 50 per cent of the shading power, thus allowing for significantly higher frame-rates.
This all sounds well and good, but how much of a performance advantage does DLSS provide? Right now, it’s difficult to answer that question broadly, as DLSS has only appeared in a handful of shipping titles. Therefore, we’ve chosen a Final Fantasy XV demo provided by Nvidia, which could be a best-case scenario or a representative one; at this point, we still don’t know. In the Final Fantasy demo at least, the performance gains are monumental — the RTX 2080 Ti gains nearly 40 per cent when switching from traditional temporal anti-aliasing to DLSS, while the combined difference between the GTX 1080 Ti and RTX 2080 Ti is a whopping 80 per cent. It will be extremely interesting to see whether these differentials are mirrored in the twenty-five games that Nvidia has announced will support DLSS in the future; expect a full Digital Foundry examination once these start to arrive later this year!

Real-time ray tracing
You may have noticed that Nvidia’s new Turing cards have dropped the GTX moniker, instead opting for the RTX brand. This refers to the card’s unique real-time ray tracing abilities, where light is accurately modelled as it bounces around a scene to boost graphical fidelity. Real-time ray tracing requires an immense amount of effort even with the RTX cards’ dedicated hardware, so expect to toggle this effect on and off to see whether the more realistic lighting and reflections are worth the heavy performance hit. In Battlefield 5, the only game with Nvidia’s ray tracing implementation thus far, we’ve seen even the RTX 2080 Ti lose over half of its performance with RTX on at 1080p. In titles that support both technologies, DLSS and real-time ray tracing could be used together to ensure playable frame-rates, but we haven’t seen this combination used yet in a shipping game. That means, like DLSS, RTX on the 2080 Ti largely remains an unknown quantity. Games in five or ten years will almost certainly use this technology or something similar to it, but what about this year or next? We will have to wait and see.
Turing architecture: new rendering features
While RTX and DLSS are the two standout features of the new Turing graphics cards, they’re far from the only new additions. Nvidia have also included new shading models, such as mesh shading, which allow graphics cards to have greater control over level of detail settings. That could result in performance gains without any regressions in image quality. Variable rate shading is another clever addition which focuses processing power on scene elements that players are likely to be looking at. A Wolfenstein 2 demo suggests that we could see a healthy 15 to 20 per percent frame-rate boost when the feature is enabled, although as usual, developers will need to specifically implement these new shaders in their games for the advantages to be realised.
The physical connectors on the RTX 2080 Ti are also upgraded over the previous generation, with DisplayPort 1. 4a allowing the connection of an 8K display at its full 60Hz refresh rate using only a single cable. Perhaps more practical in the short term, USB-C VirtualLink combines data and video over a single reversible cable for next-generation VR headsets.
Finally, streamers and game video creators will be able to take advantage of an upgraded NVENC encoder. This more efficient hardware and software combination supports a wider range of video standards and should allow for higher resolutions too. More importantly, the encoder uses less CPU resources than its predecessor, especially at high resolutions, which could allow mainstream gaming PCs to stream at full 4K resolution.
RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti: performance benchmarks
In order to give you a better idea of the gulf in performance between the RTX 2080 Ti and GTX 1080 Ti, we’ve tested these cards in nine titles from the past few years. To round out our comparison, we’ve included the RTX 2080 and the GTX 1080 as well. Eight of the games have been tested at 4K resolution, as higher resolutions will best emphasise the difference in performance between these graphics cards. We will however also share our initial 1080p and 1440p results at the end of this section, in order to give more information for gamers using high refresh rate (eg 100Hz, 144Hz or 240Hz) displays.
To give you a better idea of their raw performance, you can also see some of the most relevant stats in the table below. Note that Founders Edition figures are given first, with their reference equivalents in parentheses, as the RTX FE cards we tested come factory overclocked.

A YouTube video embedded below will show you exactly the scene that we tested each card on, with live frame-rate and frame time data embedded below. Use the controls to the right of the video to swap in different cards or resolutions, and find summarised results in the bar charts below. For these, remember that you need to mouse over the chart to see the average, best and worst one per cent and five per cent figures; you can also click to change between absolute values and percentages. That’s enough jibber jabber, so let’s get into the results!
Assassin’s Creed Odyssey
First up is Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, the latest game to be added to our benchmark suite. The game’s well-crafted textures and richly detailed materials, combined with the large open world, make for a challenging test even for the Nvidia’s top-end consumer card. The RTX 2080 Ti is able to manage 75fps at 1440p, but only 52fps at 4K — so if you want a 4K/60 experience, you’ll need to turn down some settings (or, if you really can afford to flash the cash, pick up a second RTX 2080 Ti). The RTX 2080 Ti is 24 per cent faster at 4K than the GTX 1080 Ti.

Assassin’s Creed Unity
We continue with Assassin’s Creed Unity, the 2014 release that saw protagonist Arno stalk the streets of Revolution-era Paris. The RTX 2080 Ti is the only card that is able to break a 60fps average at 4K, dipping below the prescribed frame-rate only when detailed characters are large on the screen at the ultra high preset that we’ve chosen. The GTX 1080 Ti is about 28 per cent behind, recording an average of 43fps. That means you’d need to make visual tweaks to achieve a 60fps average on the 1080 Ti, but not on the newer card — progress!

Battlefield 1
Next up is 2016 title Battlefield 1, specifically its War Stories mode as there’s no built-in benchmark for us to use here. The RTX 2080 Ti eclipses 100fps this time around, coming within tweaking distance of maxing out a 4K 144Hz gaming monitor. The 103fps of the RTX 2080 Ti is a solid 30fps ahead of the GTX 1080 Ti, a difference of about 30 per cent. Note that the frame time spikes in the benchmark results are the result of randomised explosions, and aren’t an indicator of performance instability as you would normally expect.

Crysis 3
Crysis 3, released all the way back in 2013, is the oldest test we’ve included in our current benchmark suite. The RTX 2080 Ti is the first card that we’ve tested to pass the 60fps threshold at 4K here, actually scoring a comfortable 68fps on average. The GTX 1080 Ti sits 20 per cent behind, at a less playable 54fps. As common with older titles, the RTX 2080 is less competitive, offering just 53fps, although few games released five years ago will challenge a modern graphics card to quite the extent that Crysis does!

Far Cry 5
Far Cry 5 is one of the newest titles in our tests, having been released in 2018. The RTX 2080 Ti again is the only card to score in excess of 60fps at 4K, with a final average result of 75fps. In comparison, the GTX 1080 Ti sits relatively far behind at 56fps, a span of nearly 25 per cent. The RTX 2080 is the middle child in this situation, with the smaller RTX card managing just 4fps better than the fastest GTX card.

Ghost Recon Wildlands
At last, we’ve found it: a game where the RTX 2080 Ti can’t push 60 frames per second at 4K! Ghost Recon Wildlands, released last year, is the game in question and it remains the most challenging benchmark we have with a challenging built-in benchmark. The RTX 2080 Ti manages just 47fps on average, while the GTX 1080 Ti and RTX 2080 manage 38fps. Overall, the gap between the Ti cards is around 25 per cent. Of course, a G-Sync monitor would allow for playable results at 4K, no matter which card of the three that you’re using — especially if you’re willing to drop from the ridiculous ultra preset to a more sensible high or very high.

Rise of the Tomb Raider
We’ve chosen to evaluate performance in both of the recent Tomb Raider titles, with the first being 2016 release Rise of The Tomb Raider. This game’s integrated benchmark remains a good test of GPU performance, although actual gameplay can be significantly more demanding. The RTX 2080 Ti is about 20 per cent ahead of the GTX 1080 Ti here, with an average score of 80fps for the RTX card compared to 63fps for the GTX 1080 Ti. The GTX 1080 Ti outperforms its closest RTX competitor here, although as we’ll see that trend doesn’t hold forever.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Next is the 2018 Tomb Raider game, Shadow of the Tomb Raider. This game is more graphically challenging than its predecessor, and its benchmark is also more representative of in-game performance. The RTX 2080 Ti is the only card to exceed an average of 60fps once more, and this time there’s less than a single frame per second in it! The GTX 1080 Ti doesn’t perform as well in this newer game, with an average frame-rate of 43fps and a 28 per cent gap to the RTX 2080 Ti. It’s also worth keeping in mind using deep learning super sampling could boost these scores higher, as we saw earlier from the Final Fantasy XV DLSS demo.

The Witcher 3
2015’s The Witcher 3 remains a favourite for gamers and system builders alike, as we evaluate performance by a good old-fashioned Roach ride through the muddy streets of Novigrad. The RTX 2080 Ti manages a solid result of 77fps on average, compared to 60fps for the RTX 2080 — a differential of around 22 per cent. The GTX 1080 Ti is also competitive at 64fps average, so it’s another solid result for the older card here.

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus
Our final benchmark addition is Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus, which came out late last year. In our benchmark run of a campaign section that sees BJ riding a Panzerhund in New Orleans, the uber preset only limits the RTX 2080 Ti to an impressive 104fps average score. That’s a solid 36 per cent improvement over the GTX 1080 Ti, indicating again that newer games seem better suited to RTX hardware.

1080p/1440p performance at high refresh rates
We noted earlier that the majority of our testing had been performed at 4K, as this best illustrates the differences between GPUs, in comparison to lower resolutions which are intrinsically more CPU-bound. However, it’s still worth investigating how the top cards from Nvidia’s Pascal and Turing series compare at lower resolutions in games like Rise of the Tomb Raider, shown below. Here, we can see that at 1080p, there’s only a 12 per cent gap between the two flagship cards, rising to nearly 20 per cent at 1440p.
Rise of the Tomb Raider: Very High, SMAA
Please enable JavaScript to use our comparison tools.
This shows that if you’re targeting lower resolutions at high frame-rates, a GTX 1080 Ti card could prove to be the better performer pound-for-pound. However, more recent DirectX 12 titles like Shadow of the Tomb Raider result in better results for the RTX cards, meaning that while you may save money initially, you also may need to upgrade earlier to play modern games — and that’s before taking RTX-exclusive technologies like DLSS and variable rate shading or driver improvements into account.
RTX 2080 Ti vs GTX 1080 Ti: price and availability
The RTX 2080 Ti is far and away the best-performing graphics card on the market, delivering at least 60 frames per second at 4K in all but one of the games that we tested. By comparison, the GTX 1080 Ti only manages that feat in three of the games in our benchmark suite, and largely in older titles.
Another nail in the coffin for the GTX 1080 Ti is that finding the card at a reasonable price is becoming near-impossible as stock has dried up and even used models are sold at a premium. The cheapest GTX 1080 Ti spotted for sale in our retailer survey was £759 in the UK and $1200 in the US; compare this to the RTX 2080 at £600/$700 and you’re paying much more for a card that’s often slower. By comparison, the cheapest 2080 Ti examples we found retailed for £950 in the UK and $1000 in the US, so choosing the GTX 1080 Ti doesn’t really make any sense even if you don’t hold any stock in DLSS or RTX.
Of course, while the GTX 1080 Ti is a mature card that’s unlikely to get much better, the RTX 2080 and 2080 Ti could well be improved over time. Driver updates and greater developer adoption of technologies like RTX, DLSS and variable rate shading could make the RTX series the only sensible option for gamers building high-end rigs. Even if they end up as niche technologies, the calculus still favours picking up one of Nvidia’s Turing cards — or at least waiting for a second RTX generation whenever it comes, perhaps in a few years.
For the moment, the RTX 2080 is the strongest choice of these three high end cards, offering GTX 1080 Ti performance levels at a lower price plus extra technology. Meanwhile, the RTX 2080 Ti makes the most sense for early adopters who want to try the newest technology and 4K gamers who don’t want to sacrifice visual fidelity in order to hit a solid 60fps. For other groups, especially gamers using 1080p or 1440p monitors, going with a GTX 1080 Ti and a faster processor is a sensible choice only if you can find one significantly cheaper than a new RTX 2080 card.
