NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Super
The final card in NVIDIA's 2019 Super refresh: a fully enabled TU104 die with 3,072 CUDA cores, 48 RT cores and 384 Tensor cores, paired with 15.5 Gbps GDDR6 for 496 GB/s of bandwidth, launched at the same $699 as the RTX 2080 it replaced.
Pros
- Ships with a fully enabled TU104 die: all 3,072 CUDA cores, 48 RT cores and 384 Tensor cores active, unlike the cut-down original RTX 2080
- 15.5 Gbps GDDR6 lifts memory bandwidth to 496 GB/s, about 11% higher than the original RTX 2080
- Launched at the same $699 price as the RTX 2080 it replaced
- Scored higher than the RTX 2070 Super and original RTX 2080 in review 3DMark Time Spy graphics testing
Cons
- TDP rose to 250W, up from 225W on the original RTX 2080, for the added performance
- VRAM stayed at 8GB, unchanged from the card it replaced
- No Multi Frame Generation support; that arrived only with the RTX 50 series
