GeForce RTX 3080 vs GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 3080 vs GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER
The GeForce RTX 3080 is dramatically faster, around 133% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 3080 is comfortable at 1440p, while the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is better matched to 1080p. The GeForce RTX 3080 packs 8,704 CUDA cores versus 2,176 on the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER.
Price & Value
Right now the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER starts at $2,698 BRL against $4,875 BRL for the GeForce RTX 3080. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 3080 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 29%. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER still sits about $2,299 BRL above its $399 BRL MSRP. The GeForce RTX 3080 still sits about $4,176 BRL above its $699 BRL MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER pulls less power (175W vs 320W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster GeForce RTX 3080 draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it. Its more modern Ampere architecture on a Samsung 8nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
With 10GB against 8GB, the GeForce RTX 3080 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER's 8GB can fall short. The GeForce RTX 3080's memory is also faster — 760 GB/s versus 448 GB/s (320-bit vs 256-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Which should you buy: GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER or GeForce RTX 3080?
The GeForce RTX 3080 is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER if you find it at a steep discount.
