RTX 2070 Super vs GTX 1080 Ti faces in a performance comparison

To put the rest in context, the RTX 2070 Super is a Turing-based graphics card that improves the performance of its younger sister, the normal RTX 2070. This card has a clock frequency of 1770 MHz and an 8GB GDDR6 memory that reaches 14 Gbps.

The GTX 1080 Ti is the flagship of the Pascal generation that was launched in 2017. This graphic reaches a clock frequency of 1582 MHz and uses 11GB GDDR5X @ 11 Gbps memory.

Performance comparison

The comparison was made by the YT Testing Games channel on a PC with an i9-9900K processor running at 4.7 GHz. The motherboard is the Asus ROG Strix Z390-F Gaming accompanied by 16GB of memory @ 3200 MHz. All games were tested at a resolution of 1440p.

	GTX 1080 Ti	RTX 2070 Super
Battlefield v	91	86
Forza Horizon 4	124	113
Assassins Creed Odyssey	74	74
Exodus Metro	122	117

The Division 2	71	72
Rage 2	91	85

Actually the performance difference between the two seems very close, with a small advantage of the GTX 1080 Ti at all times. Let's say around 10% or less. The price is definitely decisive and the GTX 1080 Ti is a more expensive graphics card than the RTX 2070 Super on the market. Also, the Super variant comes with Ray Tracing support.

Although the Pascal-based graphics offers higher performance even 2 years after its launch, the difference does not justify its price at this time, so an RTX 2070 Super would be a more recommended option.
