NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti (Desktop)
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080
► remove from comparisonThe Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 is a high-end desktop graphics card based on the AD103 chip using the Ada Lovelace architecture. The 4080 offers 9,728 cores and 16 GB GDDR6X graphics memory with a 256-bit memory bus and clocked at 22.4 Gbits. The card offers a very good ray tracing performance thanks to the 76 dedicated ray tracing cores. For AI calculations (and DLSS 3 in games), the RTX 4080 has 304 Tensor cores.
Performance
The gaming performance is well-suited for 4k60 gaming in maximum detail settings and 2K gaming with higher frame rates. Even ray tracing effects can be used with DLSS in most games. Compared to the competition, the RTX 4080 is on par with the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT, with a noticeable advantage when raytracing is used.
Power consumption
The AD103 chip is manufactured in the modern 5nm process at TSMC (4N with EUV) and specified with a TGP (Total Graphics Power) of 320 Watts (compared to the 450 Watts of the RTX 4090). Nvidia is recommending a 750-watt power supply for the RTX 4080.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti (Desktop)
► remove from comparison
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti is the fastest consumer desktop graphics card in 2018 and the fastest Turing RTX card at launch. It offers 4,352 shaders, 11 GB GDDR6 with a 352 bit interface (14 GHz, 616 GB/s for the Founders Edition). Furthermore, the 2080Ti includes 544 Tensor cores and 68 raytracing cores.
Features
NVIDIA manufacturers the TU102 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 Ti 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
The gaming performance of the 2080 Ti is around 27% faster than a RTX 2080 in 4K and around 35% faster than a GTX 1080 Ti. Therefore, the 2080 Ti is capable of max settings in 4K for all current AAA games. Adding raytracing may however reduce the performance below 60 fps.
Power Requirements
NVIDIA estimates that the RTX 2080 Ti should consume a maximum of 250 W or 260 W for the Founders Edition, which is on a level with the GTX 1080 Ti (250 Watt).
