Wow this is the only benchmark video of rtx 2080 ti in 2024 .I think I should buy 2080 ti used because it is now worth buying over 3060 ti and 3070 and having more vram.
@@greatexpectation6456 I was very shocked myself at that fact. When I started recording this video I went to search for RTX 2080 Ti in 2024 to see what kind of games other channels were testing but I couldnt find any. Definitely agree that it is a better buy performance wise than a 3060 Ti and 3070, with a single caveat. The 3070 is slightly better with ray tracing, but the 11GB of VRAM on the 2080 Ti is kind of a no brainer over the other two, especially considering the 2080 Ti and 3070 perform very similarly.
That is a very decent pairing. I used a 9700K and 3070 back in 2020 to 2022, and at the time only Cyberpunk struggled on the CPU as it had no hyperthreading. Cyberpunk fixed a lot of its issues, including CPU usage, and now runs fine. A friend still has the 3070 / 9700K setup as a secondary PC, and has no issues running modern games at 1080p High, or 1440p with DLSS or medium settings native.
@@thebashunter what chip do you recommend with the 2080ti ? Its runs everything fine without any issue man Flight simulator en all shooter games on high ultra max no any lag or overheating. Its on 75degrees all time
Great video, love seeing how older GPU's are doing in newer games and engines. For some reason it's really satisfying to see a 5 year old GPU still be extremely playable at great visual settings on 1440p. I wonder how current GPU's (other than the 4090) will age 5 years into the future and if they will still be really good.
At the rate games are increasing in required specs I think only the 4080 and 4090 will age as well as this. What gives the 2080 Ti some leeway is the 11GB of VRAM. Crazy to think a 1080 Ti and 2080 Ti have more VRAM than a 3080 🤦
I've been running 2080ti since 2019, it worked perfectly in 4k. all i had too do is turning dlss quality on in some games, but with pre 2020 games it works in 4k with no problem. It's frame rates are very similar to that of 3080, a few frames behind in 4k, and 3080 and 4070 essentially runs at the same fps in 4k, so i would say 2080ti ≈ 4070, which a bit less efficient power consumption.
3080 is faster than 4070 by a solid 10% and 2080ti is 20% behind a 3080… Listen, 2080ti is a solid card, but there’s no need to lie to yourself about it being a 4070 equivalent, it’s not really a great card anyway. 4070s are trash and there won’t be a solid card for RT for a long time. But all of these cards are great for rasterized, so enjoy it as long as you can!
@@Seongbin99 2080TI is more or less a 3070 with more vram and less rt, with the new drivers the 4070 is more or less a 3080. between a 3070 and a 4070 it's 30% in rt more or less the same. With rt the 3080 and 4070 are +40% faster than the 2080ti. the 2080ti only beats the 3070 in vram intensive games, does 8gb are a pain in the ass.
@@Seongbin99 Hardware Unboxed back then in 2020 on old drivers tested the 3070 on 14 games and it beat the 2080ti in average. the 3080 is 31% faster in average than the 2080ti in 4k tested on 14 games. The moment you turn on ray tracing the 20 cards in modern games like cp2077 are just far slower than the nvidia 30 and 40 cards. just watch some reviews digital foundry is another where the 3080 stumps the 2080ti and with the new drivers the 4070 is even faster than the 3080 by 5% average.
I love this card, im still usng it with a 13600K using it untill the 5080 drops, still runs games great even at 4k! I dont often game lately and use using a small usb c dongle u can even get up to 4K 144Hz 10 bit HDR10 which it does not support through HDMI and DP only 4K 60
The USB C port is a very nice addition indeed. Not many cards have those nowadays. And the 11GB of VRAM means it surpasses GPUs like the 3070 and 4060 Ti in longevity for sure. A pity it was so very expensive at launch, but those who got it a little while later for cheaper definitely scored.
Appreciate the support, as always. Yeah, it's really doing not too bad, but I want to test more UE5 games with Lumen etc. Will do a dedicated UE5 video next week, thanks for the idea 🤣
Just went from an 8700k and a FTW3 2080 ti to a 4080 Super. and I am building out a new machine with a 12900k and a wateblock for the 4080 S. But moving to just the 480s and the 8700k it is a huge difference from the 2080 ti. I do play at 4k so if you play at 1440p, I wouldn't even worry about an upgrade until the 50 series.
I had a 2080ti and a 8700k. I was torn on upgrading either the gpu, cpu, or both. I decided to go with a 13600k on sale for 250 and paired it with ddr5 memory and kept the 2080ti. My fps didn't improve, but the stability of my games did. Only reason I am not going to upgrade my gpu yet is because I would be upgrading it for one game which is cyberpunk. Everything else I play is from 2020 or older lol
Hahaha! I upgraded my 1080 Ti to a 3070 just for Cyberpunk! I waited a little bit and managed to get a 3070 at MSRP even during the crypto craze so I was happy about that. That said, you now have a very decent CPU and should be able to upgrade to a pretty decent GPU as well if you so desire, the CPU will be fine. I am guessing your 1% lows etc are much better compared to your 8700K?
Very much so. FF7 remake is a good example. It would stutter with the 8700k and runs buttery smooth with the 13600k. Cyberpunk would just drop fps in cities and now it runs smooth at high settings, but no ray tracing. I am waiting for the 5 series and am going to aim for the 5070 level.
@@TheJeffBala I currently daily drive a 4070 Super. The 70 class GPUs have always been my go-to for daily driving as they are often the best bang for buck. That obviously depends on which way the wind is blowing on release day, as prices can vary wildly haha!
Best used GPU in the market imo from NVIDIA. Your gimping it using 300w though, I am pretty sure 90% of buyers using this will use a 380w VBIOS to get more juice out of it. 2100mhz Core Clock should be easy to achieve as long as thermals are in check with that PL. if you find one with Samsung Memory that’s like another 5-10 fps since you can push it to 8200mhz
RTX 2080 TI is great for anything still, up to 1440P, but it certainly needs a model that has large heatsink. I haven't tried RTX 4060 TI but those should offer similar performance at 100W less power, making everything much cooler and quieter.
Yeah, it's amazing how efficient the 40-ssries GPUs are. If you still have a 2080 Ti it's still very capable indeed, but if you are looking for 2080 Ti performance today it's definitely a better choice to buy something newer that's more efficient, like you said.
I would still go for 2080ti vs 4060ti 8Gb or vs 7700XT(weak RT, and trash FSR) 11GB of Vram is actually the perfect amount for a midrange GPU in 2024. If you are lucky to have Samsung memory you can easily OC bandwidth from 616GB/s to 704GB/s (+1000MHz) Reference design has 250W TDP, so only 5W more than 5y younger RX 7700 XT. I'm still using the MSI Gaming X Trio, 300W OC model but undervolted to 1800MHz@0.825, +1000MHz mem, 180-220W. This gives the same performance like stock settings, but 80-100W less power.
Hi MPR 👋 The mic is fine, I couldn't notice any problem from my smartphone. The video quality is also perfect, the capture card seems to work fine. It's interesting to discover 2080ti is still offering such performance in 2024. Alan Wake 2 is the only game that actually puts the card in difficulty. I left a like. Keep up the good work 💪
Appreciate the comments, likes and feedback more than you know, thanks! The mic recently fell and since then lacks warmth / lower frequencies, and it also distorts at times even when talking softer. I couldnt hear it on a TV or phone, but on headphones you can. I have another mic that I will use and see if it works better.
Didnt Nidia now have updated drivers for all RTX cards to use DLSS 3.0 and 3.5 now? My 2080Ti still beats 4060ti and 3070 8GB in performance. Most 8GB cards are getting obsolete for anything beyond 1080p. But the 2080Ti is the sweet spot for 1440p on high DLSS in most games and even 4K and can be had in the used market for the same price as the new 8GB cards that are less performance.
The DLSS naming convention is very confusing. All RTX cards support DLSS 2.0 version 3.7, which is the latest version of DLSS upscaling. DLSS 3 refers to DLSS frame generation, and that is still only available on RTX 40 series cards. DLSS 3.5 is ray reconstruction, and that is supported on all RTX cards as well.
I've successfully ran Helldivers in 4k at 60-70 fps on my i9 7920X with both a 1080TI (medium preset) and a base RTX 2070 (medium to low custom). I think with the increase in performance it looks like a 2080ti would be a aolid upgrade in both quality and FPS.
Yeah, the RTX 2080 Ti is about 30-45% faster than the 1080 Ti / 2070 Super on average. It does pull quite a bit ahead of the 1080 Ti in newer games though due to it's newer architecture and mesh shader support. The 2080 Ti is still a great GPU for modern games.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Thank you for clarifying that. I'm shopping for a new GPU in the near future and I'm currently debating with getting a used 2080ti to hold me off till the next tech advancement or price drops, or buying the best card I can afford now and hunker down with that for the foreseeable future. 🤷♂
@@biggboysouth You're welcome! Yeah, it's a tough one because we actually have no idea what the next gen of GPUs will look like when it comes to ray tracing and feature sets. I know a lot of people that were so angry because they bought a 3090 Ti for $2000 3 months before the 40 series launched, and by then you could get 3090 Ti performance in gaming with better RT and frame generation for $800. The same happened to people that bought 2080 Tis at launch for $1500, because 20 months later you could get similar performance with a 3070 for $500. So personally, if I were in your shoes, I'd get the 2080 Ti and see what the next gen brings. I doubt you'll lose much money, if any, if you sell the 2080 Ti again in 4 months time, but if you buy a 4070 Super new now you might regret it because its used price will probably drop by that time.
Quality video thanks, Im using this 300w 2080Ti video and the eTeknix 2080Ti vs 4060Ti video to show off my 2080Ti 370watt with 45*c 240mm AIO when I sell it next month, thanks for taking the time.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Yeah thats what the 240mm AIO is for, every 5*c after 30*c on nvidia loses 15Mhz, so I gained back plenty of boost bins vs Air coolers. 1920-1980Mhz standard now holds 2025Mhz stock clocks,..due to lower temps. VBIOS up to 370watt, not always there, but thats the PWR limit. Clockspeed forced to 2115Mhz at 1.0v holds steady all day 300w-340w loads. It can go as high as 2175Mhz at 1.065v-1.075v but it's just wasted power holding 340w-370wfor little gains at that point. I love this GPU its a tweakers dream with 370w to play with, it's a pity to let go but the new buyer will enjoy "faster than 4060Ti" at a nice price.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews You'll see a LOT of 2080Ti launch reviews used the 260w PWR limits at launch before all the aftermarket cards arrived. Its faster than the 3070 by a decent margin, except everyone started with the 260w at 80*c Founders card boostclock baseline of course so it makes the 3070 look good when compared to it. My 2080Ti is around 15% Faster than those.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviewsand also its a 165hz ips lg 1440p monitor,reflex automatically set it to 158fps in games where it reaches above 165hz..im totally satisfied,i can notice a lil bit when it reaches to 110fps or lower..
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews aha,i also noticed that cyberpunk looks a bit sluggish without FG on even on high refresh rate scenario,fg makes it silky smooth
At 1080p the only thing that is limiting the 2080ti is the CPU. In my example the old Ryzen 2700x is the limiting factor, as it simply cant provide the frames for the GPU to process (not even at a 4,1ghz OC, only 4-5fps gain). At 1080p the gpu usage is 55-60% 😂 its not a bad situation though, as its almost always over 100fps, and this way i can crank everything to MAX settings, and even AA on MAX with supersampling on aswell WITHOUT an fps hit. The only thing that changes is the gpu utilization is up from 55-60% to about 80-85%. So all in all this gpu is an absolute beast for an absolute high-end 1080p experience. It has such a performance headroom that its bearly breaking a sweat at 58-60c degrees after longer sessions. Plus, it also handles a decent OC, i'm running it stable at 2085Mhz at these temperatures (and +400 on the memory). Also i'm using the ROG Strix version of the 2080ti. Its a beast! I'm positive that i wont upgrade for the next few years, because i dont plan on gaming in higher resolutions, 4k gaming for example is very expensive for what it is.
Yeah, I used to own a 9700K + 3070 system and it was almost always CPU bound at 1080p. The 12400F does a decent job, but it still falls short at 1080p in some games, but it doesnt feel right running a 13900K + RTX 2080 Ti for 1080p gaming 🤣 So I agree, even though it is slightly CPU bottlenecked, it's still a great experience, and will still be viable for 1080p gaming for a while. Heavier games will just use more GPU resources, meaning the headroom will shrink as it will take something very graphically heavy for the 2080 Ti to become the bottleneck at 1080p when paired with a 2700X. All in all it's still a great GPU today, even for 1440p gaming, but I agree with your sentiment that it will last a while still at 1080p.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Yes, the 13900k seems like an overkill 😀 For my system i have one more upgrade in mind, and that is the Ryzen 7 5800x on the cpu front, instead of the 2700x. The whole system would benefit from that, the system memory would clock higher (3200mhz ram is stuck at 2833 on the 2700x (thanks memory controller 😂)) , the GPU would have additional support, plus it's still AM4 so i'm good with my old mobo. I also thought about the R7 5800x3d, but I think that would fry the VRMs on my pretty mediocre mobo pretty fast 😅
Yeah, that's the awesome thing about still running on an older AM4 CPU, there's plenty of drop-in upgrade options. I actually think a 5800X3D should fare better than a 5800X due to lower power and clock speeds? I used to have a 5800X and it was a damn imoressive chip, especially with PBO2!
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Yes, i thought so myself, and it really is the same ballpark if i look at the prices (with far superior stats on the X3d), but the question is if an old Prime b450plus mobo can hold up 😬 i think it's kind of sketchy, even if its officially supported. Those werent the best boards ever made 😅
@@ThePeca1988 Yeah, the prime boards dont look very convincing from looking at it. I have one for my Ryzen 5 5600 non-X system. Not sure if you watch Hardware Unboxed? The did a lot of motherboard testing, maybe there is a 5800X3D B450 Prime combo somewhere? Let me see if I can find something.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews being sold here in sweden for around 250-300 bucks, great price for a great card, id rather take 2080ti over a 3070 just cause of the added 3 gb vram over the 3070, my friend still rolls a 10600k and a 2080ti and he has no problems at all in 1440p. great gpu
Hello, nice video. 2080 ti is good to play fps competitive game like overwatch/valorant (low quality) and stream in 1080p* pair with a ryzen 5 3600 ? Cheers :)
@@ghakorp2552 I am really sorry, I did not see you asked a question, I thought you were telling me it was good for both. My bad! It does very well still when doing both. I didnt test streaming specifically, but I did test playing and recording using OBS and NVENC. There is a bit of performance loss doing that, around 15%, but nothing major. You'd be able to stream and play perfectly with no issues as long as you use the GPU for your encoding and not the CPU.
I my sold my 2080ti after 4 years of use for $880 au and got a 1080ti for $100 which I installed in my old PC with i9900k, which is only a backup PC now. My new PC has 14900k, 4090 and 64 gig of quick ram and damn. I play at 4K and always get 100 plus FPS. The 2080ti was good, but not for high FPS at 4k, just saying. PS; DLSS 3 is great if /when I use it.
Yeah, even back in the day it was more a 60 fps 4K GPU, depending on the game obviously. Doom Eternal etc was running fine 120 fps at 4K without RT, but it just wasnt powerful enough to get high refresh rate gaming going at 4K. The 4090 is the only true high refresh rate 4K GPU.
12400F? I actually have one and it slightly bottlenecks at 1080p in some games, but nothing to be too concerned about. It's a difficult choice between these 2 for sure, but I think the 11GB of the 2080 Ti will serve you bettet for longer. Edit: Missed the i3 part, so 12100F. It will be a bit of a bottleneck unfortunately, but still playable. What GPU do you have now?
This is indeed a tough one. It would depend on the price. Get the cheaper one :) But on a serious note... The 3070 is slightly better when it comes to RT, and is newer, but it only has 8GB of VRAM. The 2080 Ti is older, slightly worse at RT, but has 11GB of VRAM. 8GB is getting long in the tooth, and many modern games are struggling. So if you dont care about RT (the difference is very small anyway) I would get the 2080 Ti, depending on price.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Thanks for your advice since raytracing is a must i just had to get the 3070. 8gb is more than enough for my 1080p needs. I only paid 20 bucks more than the cheapest rtx 2080 ti i could find its a steal getting that card for under 300 bucks used
@@CryingWolf916 Yeah, probably what I would've gone for as well seeing that it is only 20 bucks more! I had one for quite a while and loved every minute of it. Enjoy!
Hmm, not sure why it's not higher on yours. My power consumption is inline with the tests Techpowerup did as well. Not sure if the link will show: www.techpowerup.com/review/msi-geforce-rtx-2080-ti-gaming-x-trio/31.html#:~:text=The%20MSI%20RTX%202080%20Ti,draw%20being%20only%20307%20W.
There are lots of different models with varied default power limits, even at 100% PL. Mine is a 300w model at 100%, it goes up to 373watts at Max PL. My other 2080Ti i bought from a friend has a 290w max PL, 260w at 100% PL
This is an MSI Gaming X Trio model and it has very decent cooling. I recently did a repaste and it stays very cool. I have a custom fan curve, but it's more for noise than cooling. It stays at 30% fan speed until 40 degrees then it goes to 40. 50C goes to 50%, 60C goes to 60% and so forth. So this wouldve been 65% fan speed at 65C.
Fantastic video. I'm curious if anyone has encountered a situation similar to mine. Over the last few months, I've observed that my MSI 2080 Ti Gaming X Trio crashes either immediately upon entering gameplay or within a few seconds after exiting from the menu. The only temporary solution I've found is reducing the core clock by -100MHz. While this resolves the issue for some games, others still experience crashes.
What are your temps like? Do you have an overlay to show this? You can also check HWINFO64 as that will show you hotspot and memory temps as well. If temps are fine, I suggest take off the shroud, cleaning it a bit and putting new thermal paste on. It would be very sad if your card itself has gone faulty 😔
@@elinbarrage9638 I havent tested much at 4K wit this GPU. This is the MSI Gaming X Trio with quite a high power limit though, but I will test Cyberpunk and see how it goes. Any specific game you are interested in?

These cards were made to last for year's same as 1080-ti; the same goes for 3060-3080; all these cards are monsters for 1080p-1440. 1080p has been mastered since the 20th series. 1440p has been mastered since the 30s There's no need to use DLSS with these resolutions unless a game is optimised badly.
Thanks for the look at the 2080ti in all these titles. But this isn't an accurate depiction of Remnant 2's framerate most game. Everywhere you go has a highly different fps. One area will literally half your framerate or worse. Even at potato mode at 1080p with upscaling you'll go below 60fps.
Yeah, it's impossible to show every scenario though. I speak about this in most of my benchmarks and say that performance will be different in other areas. Some higher and some lower 👍
I am aware of the poor microphone quality in some places. I will try and resolve it as soon as possible.

The USB C port is a very nice addition indeed. Not many cards have those nowadays. And the 11GB of VRAM means it surpasses GPUs like the 3070 and 4060 Ti in longevity for sure. A pity it was so very expensive at launch, but those who got it a little while later for cheaper definitely scored.
Great look at the 2080ti and great work on the video you have been busy
Appreciate the support, as always.
Yeah, it's really doing not too bad, but I want to test more UE5 games with Lumen etc. Will do a dedicated UE5 video next week, thanks for the idea 🤣
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews heck yea
Running a 10900k / Aorus Waterforce 2080ti and it’s still a very solid system even pushing a 5120x1440 32:9 panel
Impressive!
Just went from an 8700k and a FTW3 2080 ti to a 4080 Super. and I am building out a new machine with a 12900k and a wateblock for the 4080 S. But moving to just the 480s and the 8700k it is a huge difference from the 2080 ti. I do play at 4k so if you play at 1440p, I wouldn't even worry about an upgrade until the 50 series.
Rocking the Aorus 2080 Ti (the rare normal one, not xtreme not waterforce) it’s still outstanding performance
I had a 2080ti and a 8700k. I was torn on upgrading either the gpu, cpu, or both. I decided to go with a 13600k on sale for 250 and paired it with ddr5 memory and kept the 2080ti. My fps didn't improve, but the stability of my games did. Only reason I am not going to upgrade my gpu yet is because I would be upgrading it for one game which is cyberpunk. Everything else I play is from 2020 or older lol
Hahaha! I upgraded my 1080 Ti to a 3070 just for Cyberpunk! I waited a little bit and managed to get a 3070 at MSRP even during the crypto craze so I was happy about that.
That said, you now have a very decent CPU and should be able to upgrade to a pretty decent GPU as well if you so desire, the CPU will be fine. I am guessing your 1% lows etc are much better compared to your 8700K?
Very much so. FF7 remake is a good example. It would stutter with the 8700k and runs buttery smooth with the 13600k. Cyberpunk would just drop fps in cities and now it runs smooth at high settings, but no ray tracing. I am waiting for the 5 series and am going to aim for the 5070 level.
@@TheJeffBala I currently daily drive a 4070 Super. The 70 class GPUs have always been my go-to for daily driving as they are often the best bang for buck. That obviously depends on which way the wind is blowing on release day, as prices can vary wildly haha!
Best used GPU in the market imo from NVIDIA. Your gimping it using 300w though, I am pretty sure 90% of buyers using this will use a 380w VBIOS to get more juice out of it. 2100mhz Core Clock should be easy to achieve as long as thermals are in check with that PL. if you find one with Samsung Memory that’s like another 5-10 fps since you can push it to 8200mhz
RTX 2080 TI is great for anything still, up to 1440P, but it certainly needs a model that has large heatsink. I haven't tried RTX 4060 TI but those should offer similar performance at 100W less power, making everything much cooler and quieter.
Yeah, it's amazing how efficient the 40-ssries GPUs are. If you still have a 2080 Ti it's still very capable indeed, but if you are looking for 2080 Ti performance today it's definitely a better choice to buy something newer that's more efficient, like you said.
I would still go for 2080ti vs 4060ti 8Gb or vs 7700XT(weak RT, and trash FSR)
11GB of Vram is actually the perfect amount for a midrange GPU in 2024. If you are lucky to have Samsung memory you can easily OC bandwidth from 616GB/s to 704GB/s (+1000MHz)
Reference design has 250W TDP, so only 5W more than 5y younger RX 7700 XT.
I'm still using the MSI Gaming X Trio, 300W OC model but undervolted to 1800MHz@0.825, +1000MHz mem, 180-220W.
This gives the same performance like stock settings, but 80-100W less power.
Hi MPR 👋
The mic is fine, I couldn't notice any problem from my smartphone.
The video quality is also perfect, the capture card seems to work fine.
It's interesting to discover 2080ti is still offering such performance in 2024.
Alan Wake 2 is the only game that actually puts the card in difficulty.
I left a like. Keep up the good work 💪
Appreciate the comments, likes and feedback more than you know, thanks!
The mic recently fell and since then lacks warmth / lower frequencies, and it also distorts at times even when talking softer. I couldnt hear it on a TV or phone, but on headphones you can. I have another mic that I will use and see if it works better.
Didnt Nidia now have updated drivers for all RTX cards to use DLSS 3.0 and 3.5 now? My 2080Ti still beats 4060ti and 3070 8GB in performance. Most 8GB cards are getting obsolete for anything beyond 1080p. But the 2080Ti is the sweet spot for 1440p on high DLSS in most games and even 4K and can be had in the used market for the same price as the new 8GB cards that are less performance.
The DLSS naming convention is very confusing. All RTX cards support DLSS 2.0 version 3.7, which is the latest version of DLSS upscaling. DLSS 3 refers to DLSS frame generation, and that is still only available on RTX 40 series cards. DLSS 3.5 is ray reconstruction, and that is supported on all RTX cards as well.
I've successfully ran Helldivers in 4k at 60-70 fps on my i9 7920X with both a 1080TI (medium preset) and a base RTX 2070 (medium to low custom). I think with the increase in performance it looks like a 2080ti would be a aolid upgrade in both quality and FPS.
Yeah, the RTX 2080 Ti is about 30-45% faster than the 1080 Ti / 2070 Super on average. It does pull quite a bit ahead of the 1080 Ti in newer games though due to it's newer architecture and mesh shader support. The 2080 Ti is still a great GPU for modern games.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Thank you for clarifying that. I'm shopping for a new GPU in the near future and I'm currently debating with getting a used 2080ti to hold me off till the next tech advancement or price drops, or buying the best card I can afford now and hunker down with that for the foreseeable future. 🤷♂
@@biggboysouth You're welcome!
Yeah, it's a tough one because we actually have no idea what the next gen of GPUs will look like when it comes to ray tracing and feature sets. I know a lot of people that were so angry because they bought a 3090 Ti for $2000 3 months before the 40 series launched, and by then you could get 3090 Ti performance in gaming with better RT and frame generation for $800. The same happened to people that bought 2080 Tis at launch for $1500, because 20 months later you could get similar performance with a 3070 for $500.
So personally, if I were in your shoes, I'd get the 2080 Ti and see what the next gen brings. I doubt you'll lose much money, if any, if you sell the 2080 Ti again in 4 months time, but if you buy a 4070 Super new now you might regret it because its used price will probably drop by that time.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews I appreciate your input! You essentially laid out what I've been battling with in my brain lol.
Yeah, I think we've all been there haha!
2080Ti with AMD Ryzen 9 3900X and liquid cooled here and I can freeze food on my PC LOOOOOL
Quality video thanks, Im using this 300w 2080Ti video and the eTeknix 2080Ti vs 4060Ti video to show off my 2080Ti 370watt with 45*c 240mm AIO when I sell it next month, thanks for taking the time.
Really appreciate this 🙏
Your 2080 Ti is running 45C? And at 370W? Or am I reading that incorrectly? If I did read correctly, that's crazy good!
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Yeah thats what the 240mm AIO is for, every 5*c after 30*c on nvidia loses 15Mhz, so I gained back plenty of boost bins vs Air coolers. 1920-1980Mhz standard now holds 2025Mhz stock clocks,..due to lower temps.
VBIOS up to 370watt, not always there, but thats the PWR limit. Clockspeed forced to 2115Mhz at 1.0v holds steady all day 300w-340w loads. It can go as high as 2175Mhz at 1.065v-1.075v but it's just wasted power holding 340w-370wfor little gains at that point.
I love this GPU its a tweakers dream with 370w to play with, it's a pity to let go but the new buyer will enjoy "faster than 4060Ti" at a nice price.
Nvidia shouldve used the 3080 instead of the 3070 to compare against your 2080 Ti it seems. That's extremely good!
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews You'll see a LOT of 2080Ti launch reviews used the 260w PWR limits at launch before all the aftermarket cards arrived. Its faster than the 3070 by a decent margin, except everyone started with the 260w at 80*c Founders card boostclock baseline of course so it makes the 3070 look good when compared to it. My 2080Ti is around 15% Faster than those.
hello again.
just built the pc,i went from intel hd 530 to rtx 4080 and surprised about how creespy everything is..

What do you think of the zotac 2080ti amp extreme? I just picked one up from a friend almost 200€ below market price
The Amp lineup is pretty decent, and the Extreme 2080 Ti is a very good looking card indeed 👍
At 1080p the only thing that is limiting the 2080ti is the CPU. In my example the old Ryzen 2700x is the limiting factor, as it simply cant provide the frames for the GPU to process (not even at a 4,1ghz OC, only 4-5fps gain). At 1080p the gpu usage is 55-60% 😂 its not a bad situation though, as its almost always over 100fps, and this way i can crank everything to MAX settings, and even AA on MAX with supersampling on aswell WITHOUT an fps hit. The only thing that changes is the gpu utilization is up from 55-60% to about 80-85%. So all in all this gpu is an absolute beast for an absolute high-end 1080p experience. It has such a performance headroom that its bearly breaking a sweat at 58-60c degrees after longer sessions. Plus, it also handles a decent OC, i'm running it stable at 2085Mhz at these temperatures (and +400 on the memory). Also i'm using the ROG Strix version of the 2080ti. Its a beast! I'm positive that i wont upgrade for the next few years, because i dont plan on gaming in higher resolutions, 4k gaming for example is very expensive for what it is.
Yeah, I used to own a 9700K + 3070 system and it was almost always CPU bound at 1080p. The 12400F does a decent job, but it still falls short at 1080p in some games, but it doesnt feel right running a 13900K + RTX 2080 Ti for 1080p gaming 🤣
So I agree, even though it is slightly CPU bottlenecked, it's still a great experience, and will still be viable for 1080p gaming for a while. Heavier games will just use more GPU resources, meaning the headroom will shrink as it will take something very graphically heavy for the 2080 Ti to become the bottleneck at 1080p when paired with a 2700X.
All in all it's still a great GPU today, even for 1440p gaming, but I agree with your sentiment that it will last a while still at 1080p.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Yes, the 13900k seems like an overkill 😀
For my system i have one more upgrade in mind, and that is the Ryzen 7 5800x on the cpu front, instead of the 2700x. The whole system would benefit from that, the system memory would clock higher (3200mhz ram is stuck at 2833 on the 2700x (thanks memory controller 😂)) , the GPU would have additional support, plus it's still AM4 so i'm good with my old mobo. I also thought about the R7 5800x3d, but I think that would fry the VRMs on my pretty mediocre mobo pretty fast 😅
Yeah, that's the awesome thing about still running on an older AM4 CPU, there's plenty of drop-in upgrade options.
I actually think a 5800X3D should fare better than a 5800X due to lower power and clock speeds? I used to have a 5800X and it was a damn imoressive chip, especially with PBO2!
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Yes, i thought so myself, and it really is the same ballpark if i look at the prices (with far superior stats on the X3d), but the question is if an old Prime b450plus mobo can hold up 😬 i think it's kind of sketchy, even if its officially supported. Those werent the best boards ever made 😅
@@ThePeca1988 Yeah, the prime boards dont look very convincing from looking at it. I have one for my Ryzen 5 5600 non-X system.
Not sure if you watch Hardware Unboxed? The did a lot of motherboard testing, maybe there is a 5800X3D B450 Prime combo somewhere? Let me see if I can find something.
still a great gpu for 1440p 60fps most games.
Yeah indeed! Its only issue was its launch price, but nowadays they can be picked up for a very decent price if you dont care about warranties.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews being sold here in sweden for around 250-300 bucks, great price for a great card, id rather take 2080ti over a 3070 just cause of the added 3 gb vram over the 3070, my friend still rolls a 10600k and a 2080ti and he has no problems at all in 1440p. great gpu
@@user-fi5hc9um6q Yeah for sure, the additional VRAM capacity does help a lot. 8GB is really getting long in the teeth now, especially modern games.

Cheers :)
Thanks for stopping by!
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews i mean, i know to play, it still good but what about streaming? 🤔
@@ghakorp2552 I am really sorry, I did not see you asked a question, I thought you were telling me it was good for both. My bad!
It does very well still when doing both. I didnt test streaming specifically, but I did test playing and recording using OBS and NVENC. There is a bit of performance loss doing that, around 15%, but nothing major. You'd be able to stream and play perfectly with no issues as long as you use the GPU for your encoding and not the CPU.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews No worries ^^, thank you so much for your answer ! 😁
Is anyone playing DayZ on a 3070 or 2080 Ti in 1440p? I'm thinking about going from 1080p to 1440p. Is the performance good in 1440p?
I my sold my 2080ti after 4 years of use for $880 au and got a 1080ti for $100 which I installed in my old PC with i9900k, which is only a backup PC now. My new PC has 14900k, 4090 and 64 gig of quick ram and damn. I play at 4K and always get 100 plus FPS. The 2080ti was good, but not for high FPS at 4k, just saying. PS; DLSS 3 is great if /when I use it.
Yeah, even back in the day it was more a 60 fps 4K GPU, depending on the game obviously. Doom Eternal etc was running fine 120 fps at 4K without RT, but it just wasnt powerful enough to get high refresh rate gaming going at 4K. The 4090 is the only true high refresh rate 4K GPU.
Ok it does look like some UE5 titles are further along in the videp was curious how it did
My 2080ti aorus extreme waterforce is Crazy
could i3 1200f bottleneck a 2080 ti ? i could get a 3060 ti founders edition or a 2080 ti and i can't choose lol
12400F? I actually have one and it slightly bottlenecks at 1080p in some games, but nothing to be too concerned about. It's a difficult choice between these 2 for sure, but I think the 11GB of the 2080 Ti will serve you bettet for longer.

rtx 3070 vs 2080 ti what do you recommend i should get
This is indeed a tough one. It would depend on the price. Get the cheaper one :)
But on a serious note... The 3070 is slightly better when it comes to RT, and is newer, but it only has 8GB of VRAM. The 2080 Ti is older, slightly worse at RT, but has 11GB of VRAM. 8GB is getting long in the tooth, and many modern games are struggling. So if you dont care about RT (the difference is very small anyway) I would get the 2080 Ti, depending on price.
@@Mostly_Positive_Reviews Thanks for your advice since raytracing is a must i just had to get the 3070. 8gb is more than enough for my 1080p needs. I only paid 20 bucks more than the cheapest rtx 2080 ti i could find its a steal getting that card for under 300 bucks used

your 2080ti consumes 300w and above at 100% powerlimit in afterburner.
My strix 2080ti is at 100% powerlimit consuming around 260w.
how?
Hmm, not sure why it's not higher on yours. My power consumption is inline with the tests Techpowerup did as well. Not sure if the link will show:

There are lots of different models with varied default power limits, even at 100% PL.
Mine is a 300w model at 100%, it goes up to 373watts at Max PL.

How is the gpu only reaching 65C at 99% usage? 🤨 Running max fan speed? :|
This is an MSI Gaming X Trio model and it has very decent cooling. I recently did a repaste and it stays very cool. I have a custom fan curve, but it's more for noise than cooling. It stays at 30% fan speed until 40 degrees then it goes to 40. 50C goes to 50%, 60C goes to 60% and so forth. So this wouldve been 65% fan speed at 65C.

Fantastic video. I'm curious if anyone has encountered a situation similar to mine. Over the last few months, I've observed that my MSI 2080 Ti Gaming X Trio crashes either immediately upon entering gameplay or within a few seconds after exiting from the menu. The only temporary solution I've found is reducing the core clock by -100MHz. While this resolves the issue for some games, others still experience crashes.
What are your temps like? Do you have an overlay to show this?
You can also check HWINFO64 as that will show you hotspot and memory temps as well.
If temps are fine, I suggest take off the shroud, cleaning it a bit and putting new thermal paste on.
It would be very sad if your card itself has gone faulty 😔
why did you joke about showing shadow of the tomb raider? is it a inside joke i dont understand
So many people use Shadow for benchmarks, and so many viewers complain about using it because it's an old game.

Thanks for the look at the 2080ti in all these titles. But this isn't an accurate depiction of Remnant 2's framerate most game. Everywhere you go has a highly different fps.
One area will literally half your framerate or worse. Even at potato mode at 1080p with upscaling you'll go below 60fps.
Yeah, it's impossible to show every scenario though. I speak about this in most of my benchmarks and say that performance will be different in other areas. Some higher and some lower 👍
