Question Strix gaming 1080ti or rtx 2080?

[Jeff_120]

I want to replace my old 1070 but dunno which card to pick.
There is a used asus Strix 1080ti for 200$ less than the less expensive zotac 2080.
Should I get it or the rtx 2080 is still a better fps giver?
I have a Ryzen 7 2700 cpu

The 1080Ti performs better than the 2080 in some games, while in others it's vice versa. I'd save the $200 and get the 1080Ti.

I'd say this does a pretty good comparison and explanation for your needs: https://www.pcgamesn.com/nvidia-rtx-2080-vs-gtx-1080-ti

But Raytracing on a RTX 2080 means lower fps so goign to lower resolutions like I do now on 1070.
There are no comparison by specific models like the Strix Gaming 1080ti and a basic 2080?

If you want to look a spec comparisons, then look at this one BHP Strix 1080 Ti VS Zotac AMP 2080

Generally the 1080 ti will have less CUDA cores but lower clock speed - you'll find on userbenchmarks that generally the 1080 ti is the slightly better performer, but it can depend on the application.

You'll also typically tend to find that more performance requires less power with newer generations. And overall you'll probably find the actual FPS difference between the 2 to be minimal. But the 2080 probably gives you more "future proofing" / performance in the long run - for want of a better phrase.

What games and what screen resolution?

If you are playing at 1080P the 2700 will bottleneck both cards.

It is a very well known and very well documented problem.

Would be fine at 1440P though.

If playing at 1080P the RTX 2060 would be a much better choice or an RTX 2070.
