In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Super are significantly better than the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 MSI Gaming X 8GB Edition.
The GTX 1080 has a 358 MHz higher core clock speed than the RTX 2080 Ti, but the RTX 2080 Ti has 128 more Texture Mapping Units than the GTX 1080. As a result, the RTX 2080 Ti exhibits a 115.5 GTexel/s better Texture Fill Rate than the GTX 1080. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.
The GTX 1080 has a 358 MHz higher core clock speed than the RTX 2080 Ti, but the RTX 2080 Ti has 32 more Render Output Units than the GTX 1080. As a result, the RTX 2080 Ti exhibits a 20.3 GPixel/s better Pixel Fill Rate than the GTX 1080. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.
The GTX 1080 was released over three years more recently than the RTX 2080 Ti, and so the GTX 1080 is likely to have far better driver support, meaning it will be much more optimized and ultimately superior to the RTX 2080 Ti when running the latest games.
Both GPUs exhibit very powerful performance, so it probably isn't worth upgrading from one to the other, as both are capable of running even the most demanding games at the highest settings.
The RTX 2080 Ti has 4096 MB more video memory than the GTX 1080, so is likely to be much better at displaying game textures at higher resolutions. This is supported by the fact that the RTX 2080 Ti also has superior memory performance overall.
The RTX 2080 Ti has 444.7 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the GTX 1080, which means that the memory performance of the RTX 2080 Ti is massively better than the GTX 1080.
The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Super has 4608 Shader Processing Units and the GeForce GTX 1080 MSI Gaming X 8GB Edition has 2560. However, the actual shader performance of the RTX 2080 Ti is 8156 and the actual shader performance of the GTX 1080 is 6383. The RTX 2080 Ti having 1773 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the RTX 2080 Ti delivers a massively smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the GTX 1080.
The RTX 2080 Ti transistor size technology is 4 nm (nanometers) smaller than the GTX 1080. This means that the RTX 2080 Ti is expected to run very slightly cooler and achieve higher clock frequencies than the GTX 1080.
The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Super requires 280 Watts to run and the GeForce GTX 1080 MSI Gaming X 8GB Edition requires 180 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 650 Watts for the RTX 2080 Ti and a PSU with at least 500 Watts for the GTX 1080. The RTX 2080 Ti requires 100 Watts more than the GTX 1080 to run. The difference is significant enough that the RTX 2080 Ti may have an adverse affect on your yearly electricity bills in comparison to the GTX 1080.

| Mini Review | Overview The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Super is a rumoured RTX 20 Series graphics card and considered an Enthusiast graphics card based on the Turing architecture. Architecture The Turing architecture represents a process shrink down to 12nm compared to 14nm Pascal. The Turing architecture provides the world's first consumer support for real-time ray-tracing technology, or RTX. GPU It is rumoured this equips a GPU Codenamed Turing TU102 which has 4608 Shader Processing Units, 288 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. The central unit runs at 1350MHz and goes up to 1750MHz in Boost mode. It also has 576 Tensor Cores for AI purposes and 72 RT Cores for real-time ray-tracing. Memory The GPU accesses a 12GB frame buffer of first-gen GDDR6 memory through a 384-bit memory interface, while the Memory clock operates at 2000MHz, or 16GHz effective. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 280W, it requires at least a 650W PSU with two 8-pin power connectors. System Suggestions GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Super is best suited for resolutions up to and including 3840x2160. We recommend a top-End Processor and at least 16GB of RAM for optimal performance. | Overview GeForce GTX 1080 MSI Gaming X 8GB Edition is a Special Edition of NVIDIA's High-End GeForce GTX 1080, created by MSI. Overclock: Central Unit The Central Unit has been increased from 1607MHz to 1708MHz, whereas the Boost Clock can now achieve 1847MHz, instead of 1733MHz. Overclock: Memory Clock The Operating Memory Clock has been increased from 1250MHZ to 1263MHz. Frame Buffer Untouched. Cooling Solution Just like in games, the exclusive MSI TORX 2.0 Fan technology uses the power of teamwork to allow the TWIN FROZR VI to achieve new levels of cool. TORX 2.0 Fan design generates 22% more air pressure for supremely silent performance in the heat of battle. Performance At 1920x1080, Benchmarks Indicate a 5% Performance Boost over the Reference GeForce GTX 1080. This goes up to 7% at 3840x2160. | |||
