GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Geforce GTX 1080 Ti

Intro

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER makes use of a 12 nm design. nVidia has clocked the core speed at 1650 MHz. The GDDR6 RAM works at a speed of 1937 MHz on this specific card. It features 3072 SPUs as well as 192 Texture Address Units and 64 ROPs.

Compare those specs to the Geforce GTX 1080 Ti, which has core clock speeds of 1480 MHz on the GPU, and 1376 MHz on the 11264 MB of GDDR5X memory. It features 3584 SPUs as well as 224 Texture Address Units and 88 ROPs.

Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks

Both cards have the same power consumption.

Memory Bandwidth

As far as performance goes, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER should in theory be a small bit superior to the Geforce GTX 1080 Ti in general. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 507904 MB/sec
Geforce GTX 1080 Ti 495616 MB/sec
Difference: 12288 (2%)

Texel Rate

The Geforce GTX 1080 Ti will be a bit (approximately 5%) faster with regards to AF than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. (explain)

Geforce GTX 1080 Ti 331520 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 316800 Mtexels/sec
Difference: 14720 (5%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the Geforce GTX 1080 Ti is a better choice, by a large margin. (explain)

Geforce GTX 1080 Ti 130240 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 105600 Mpixels/sec
Difference: 24640 (23%)

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.

Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the maximum amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the interface width by its memory speed. If the card has DDR type memory, it must be multiplied by 2 once again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels that the graphics chip could possibly write to its local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The figure is worked out by multiplying the amount of colour ROPs by the the card's clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
