GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 1080: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 1080
The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is significantly faster, around 31% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1080. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce GTX 1080 pulls less power (180W vs 215W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster GeForce RTX 2070 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 2070 SUPER's memory is faster — 448 GB/s versus 320 GB/s — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is roughly 3 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1080 (Turing vs Pascal), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
