Our Verdict: With some tuning, the RTX 3080 makes the most sense for gamers with 4K monitors and it is better than RTX 2080 Ti by a margin. Though serious gamers hardly play at 4k. The RTX 3080 is faster by 40% for 1440p gaming. However, RTX 2080 Ti is still capable of producing more than 60 frames per second. For 1080p games, upgrading from RTX 2080 Ti to RTX 3080 is not worth it if targeting 60 frames per second. The price/performance ratio is much better for RTX 3080 .

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080

The RTX 3090 might be the extreme flagship of the latest Ampere set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most high-end PC gamers. On the other hand, the RTX 3080 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 699. The good news is, with the release of the RTX 3080 Ti, the RTX 3080 's price is getting more discount.

Spec for spec, this RTX 3080 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RTX 2080, by boasting 69.4 % more fps. The RTX 3080 has 10 GB RAM compared to the RTX 2080 's 8 GB video memory.

Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 3080 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RTX 2080, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and it really justifies an upgrade. Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX 6800 XT, the RTX 3080 was -1.6 % slower.

For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Microsoft Flight Simulator, Immortals of Aveum, The Callisto Protocol, Remnant II, The Last of Us Part I at 67 fps to 85 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 75 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play The Last of Us Part I, Forspoken, Atomic Heart, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Hogwarts Legacy at 65 fps to 85 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 73 fps.

For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Halo Infinite, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, GreedFall, Cyberpunk 2077, Godfall at 61 fps to 64 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 62 fps.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti

Spec for spec, this RTX 2080 Ti leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 1080, by boasting 47.3 % more fps. The RTX 2080 Ti has 11 GB RAM compared to the GTX 1080 's 8 GB video memory.

Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 2080 Ti consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 1080, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti and it really justifies an upgrade. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play The Last of Us Part I, Forspoken, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Atomic Heart, Halo Infinite at 60 fps to 76 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 70 fps.

For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Hogwarts Legacy, Dead Space, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, A Plague Tale: Requiem, F1 22 at 60 fps to 66 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 64 fps.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 / Core i9-10900K

It is worth noting that the RTX 3080 is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit. In terms of memory, the RTX 3080 's 10240 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. Deciding whether to invest so much money in a high-end GPU like RTX 3080 requires careful thought. 4K gaming is joyous on this RTX 3080 , and with a little tweaking to your AA settings, it'd be hard to imagine a title not capable of 60 fps on average.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti / i7-8700K

In terms of cost, pricing clearly is a genuine issue here and the price of RTX 2080 Ti is simply ridiculous. For those on 1080p or even 1440p monitors, the RTX 2080 Ti is very expensive and there are better value choices in the short term. It is worth noting that the RTX 2080 Ti is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit. In terms of memory, the RTX 2080 Ti 's 11264 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. 4K gaming is joyous on this RTX 2080 Ti , and with a little tweaking to your AA settings, it'd be hard to imagine a title not capable of 60 fps on average.
