RTX 2080S (Super)

Average Bench: 131% (35th of 714)

Based on 261,508 user benchmarks.  Device: 10DE 1E81 Model: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER

The high performance ray-tracing RTX 2080 Super follows the recent release of the 2060 Super and 2070 Super, from NVIDIA’s latest range of refreshed Turing RTX GPUs. The 2080 Super is a higher binned version of the original RTX 2080 which it replaces at the same price of $700 USD. In terms of specification changes between the two, the 2080 has 2944 CUDA cores, compared to 3072 in the 2080 Super, core and boost clocks have increased from 1515 MHz and 1710 MHz to 1650 MHz and 1815 MHz, respectively, memory bandwidth has increased from 14 Gbps to 15.5 Gbps and the TDP has increased from 215 W to 250 W. This translates to a roughly 10% effective speed advantage over the original 2080. The RTX 2080S also features Turing NVENC which is far more efficient than CPU encoding and alleviates the need for casual streamers to use a dedicated stream PC. Competition in this price bracket is in the form of the AMD’s Radeon VII, over which, early benchmarks suggest, the 2080 Super commands a 15% effective speed advantage. The RTX 2080 Super however, is not a value champion and those seeking more bang for their buck may do well to consider Nvidia’s own $500 USD RTX 2070 Super (which has 17% lower effective speed). [Jul '19 GPUPro]

I am running two of these together in SLI and I have not found anything it can not handle, 60 FPS. Streaming league of legends I get 220 fps with spotify and lots of backround apps. Arma 3 maxed out, Dark Souls Elden ring etc maxed easily, I dont play the most resource intensive games obviously but very happy with the performance overall and after 3.5 years it hasn't had any issues.

Personally own one, have used it since release. For the price and specs is my most preferred GPU. If you have the money obviously go for the RTX 4090, But if you have less of a budget I recommend RTX 2080 super.

Covering the stopgap between RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti, this GPU is slightly more powerful than the non-Super counterpart thanks to higher amount of CUDA cores, higher memory clock and higher core clock as well. This GPU has sufficient amount of horsepower to run raytraced games at 1080p without DLSS or 1440p with DLSS turned on. Users looking for performance at lower price may opts for much cheaper yet slightly weaker AMD RX 5700 XT instead.

It's a slightly faster 2080, at the 2080's price point. What's not to like?

Better performance than 2080 for the same price as a 2080. I was gonna buy a 2080 anyway, so free fps gain.

Terribly over priced took over 6 months to become reasonably priced for 400 sure its good enough but the 3080 for 525 is much better. the 2080 super was 750 when released
