The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Super with Max-Q design is the power saving variant of the mobile GeForce RTX 2080 Super with reduced clock speeds, performance and of course power consumption. It is intended for thin gaming laptops and based on the same TU104 chip with 3,072 shaders, 8 GB GDDR6 memory and a 256 Bit memory bus.
Currently it looks like there are three variants with a TGP of 80, 85 and 90 Watt. The clock speed ranges from 735 - 975 MHz for the base clock speed and 1080 - 1230 for the boost.
With the refresh, Nvidia also reworked the Max-Q technologies for more efficiency. Low Voltage GDDR6 (lower clocked but more headroom for the GPU) and improved regulator efficiency should improve the performance per Watt. Two new optional features can also be implemented by the OEM. Max-Q Dynamic Boost is able to shift power from the CPU to the GPU on a per frame basis to increase overall performance. Furthermore, the laptop manufacturer can also implement Advanced Optimus with a dynamic display switch (hardware) to enable Optimus, G-SYNC and high refresh rate displays (up to 4K 120 Hz).
Features
NVIDIA manufacturers the TU104 chip on a 12 nm FinFET process and includes features like Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) and Real-Time Ray Tracing (RTRT), which should combine to create more realistic lighting effects than older GPUs based on the company's Pascal architecture (if the games supports it). The RTX 2080 Super Max-Q is also DisplayPort 1.4 ready, while there is also support for HDMI 2.0b, HDR, Simultaneous Multi-Projection (SMP) and H.265 video en/decoding (PlayReady 3.0).
Performance
Due to the lower clock rates, the Max-Q variant is clearly slower than the mobile RTX 2080 Super. In our benchmarks with the first devices, the performance is very similar to the old RTX 2080 Max-Q and only on a level with the non Max-Q RTX 2070. Therefore, the performance is ideal for 1440p gaming at max details for demanding games like Red Dead Redemption 2, Control or Borderlands 3. Less demanding games like F1 2019 can be played in 4k with maximum settings. Detailed gaming benchmarks can be found at the end of this page.
The power consumption of the card is between 80 - 90 Watt TGP and therefore significantly lower than the RTX 2080 Super Mobile (150 - 200 Watt).
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 sits behind the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti as the second fastest desktop GPU in NVIDIA's current Turing line-up. The RTX 2080 has 2,944 shader units, 8 GB GDDR6 VRAM and a 256-bit interface that runs at 14 GHz and delivers up to 448 GB/s.

Performance
The RTX 2080 should perform on par with a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, but it will outclass the latter in games that support DLSS and RTRT. The RTX 2080 is at the pinnacle of consumer desktop GPUs and can play most triple-A games released in 2018 at high graphics in 4K.
Power Requirements
NVIDIA estimates that the RTX 2080 should consume a maximum of 215 W, which is 35 W higher than the company rates its GeForce GTX 1080.
Die Nvidia Titan RTX bietet mit dem Vollausbau des TU102-Grafikprozessors nochmals mehr Leistung als das bisherige Topmodell Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti. Dieses Topmodell für High-End-Consumer auf Basis der aktuellen Turing-Grafikkarten für Desktop-PCs wurde im Dezember 2018 vorgestellt. Die GPU verfügt über die 4.608 Shadereinheiten, sowie 24 GB GDDR6-Speicher an einem 384-Bit-Interface (14 GHz, 672 GB/s). Zusätzlich integriert die 2080 Ti 576 Tensor-Kerne und 72 Raytracing-Kerne.
Features
Der TU102-Chip wird in 12nm gefertigt und bietet eine Reihe neuer Features, wie DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) und Real Time Ray Tracing. Dadurch lassen sich vor allem Bleuchtungseffekte sehr viel realistischer darstellen. Weiterhin gibt es Support für DisplayPort 1.4 (ready), HDMI 2.0b, HDR, Simultaneous Multi-Projection (SMP) sowie H.265 Video De- und Encoding (PlayReady 3.0). Im Vollausbau bietet der TU102 4.608 Shader, 576 Tensor Kerne und 72 Raytracing Kerne. Damit bietet die Nvidia Titan RTX die gleichen Spezifikationen wie die Nvidia Quadro RTX 8000. Leider bleiben die vielen Quadro-Features weiterhin nur der teureren Quadro-Familie erhalten.
Performance
Die Performance der Titan RTX liegt in 4K zwar vor der GeForce RTX 2080 ti, jedoch ist dieser mit wenigen Prozent schon fast zu vernachlässigen. Eine übertaktete RTX 2080 ti sollte somit einer Titan RTX wieder überlegen sein. Im Gegen die Titan X auf Pascal-Basis kann sich das Turing-Modell einen Vorsprung von bis zu 30 % erzielen. Mit dieser Leistung ordnet sich die Titan RTX zweifelsohne im High-End-Segment ein und kann die meisten Spiele des Jahres 2018 in hohen Einstellungen und 4K-Auflösung flüssig darstellen.
Leistungsaufnahme
Die Leistungsaufnahme der Nvidia Titan RTX wird vom Hersteller mit 280 Watt beziffert. Im Vergleich zur Titan X (Pascal) benötigt das neue Spitzenmodell bei voller Auslastung 30 Watt mehr.
