GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 1070 Ti: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 1070 Ti
The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is dramatically faster, around 75% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti is better matched to entry-level 1080p. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER packs 3,072 CUDA cores versus 2,432 on the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti.
Price & Value
Right now the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti starts at $270 CAD against $2,005 CAD for the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. Despite being slower, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti offers the better performance-per-dollar (~324% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce GTX 1070 Ti is trading below its $449 CAD MSRP — a genuine deal. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER still sits about $1,306 CAD above its $699 CAD MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce GTX 1070 Ti pulls less power (180W vs 250W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it. Its more modern Turing architecture on a TSMC 12nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Memory & Bandwidth
The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER's memory is faster — 496 GB/s versus 256 GB/s — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is roughly 2 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti (Turing vs Pascal), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1070 Ti or GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER?
Choose the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
