GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs GeForce RTX 2080 Ti

Intro

Compare those specifications to the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, which comes with a core clock speed of 1350 MHz and a GDDR6 memory frequency of 1750 MHz. It also makes use of a 352-bit bus, and uses a 12 nm design. It is comprised of 4352 SPUs, 272 TAUs, and 88 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

Theoretically, the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti should perform much faster than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER in general. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 Ti		630784 MB/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		507904 MB/sec
	Difference: 122880 (24%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti will be a bit (about 16%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 Ti		367200 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		316800 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 50400 (16%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti is a better choice, but it probably won't make a huge difference. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 Ti		118800 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		105600 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 13200 (13%)

Please note that the above 'benchmarks' are all just theoretical - the results were calculated based on the card's specifications, and real-world performance may (and probably will) vary at least a bit.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (counted in MB per second) that can be moved across the external memory interface in a second. It is calculated by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that can be applied in one second. This is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly record to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also sometimes called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on many other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to get to the max fill rate.
