Theoretically speaking, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER should be 343% quicker than the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti overall, due to its greater data rate. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		507904 MB/sec
GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		114688 MB/sec
	Difference: 393216 (343%)

Texel Rate

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is quite a bit (approximately 412%) better at AF than the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		316800 Mtexels/sec
GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		61920 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 254880 (412%)

Pixel Rate

If running with a high screen resolution is important to you, then the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is a better choice, by far. (explain)

GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER		105600 Mpixels/sec
GeForce GTX 1050 Ti		41280 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 64320 (156%)

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 largest amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be moved past the external memory interface within a second. It's worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by the speed of its memory. In the case of DDR type memory, it should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by ANOTHER 2x. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and higher screen resolutions.

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

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. Pixel rate is worked out by multiplying the amount of Raster Operations Pipelines by the the core clock speed. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to reach the maximum fill rate.
