GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB vs GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB vs GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER

The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB is significantly faster, around 32% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB is comfortable at 1440p, while the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is better matched to 1080p. The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB packs 4,608 CUDA cores versus 3,072 on the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER.

Price & Value

Right now the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB starts at $370 EUR against $878 EUR for the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB wins on performance-per-dollar by about 213%. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER still sits about $179 EUR above its $699 EUR MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB draws just 180W versus 250W for the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Blackwell architecture on a TSMC 4N 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 448 GB/s (256-bit vs 128-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.

Generation & Longevity

The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB is roughly 6 years newer than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER (Blackwell vs Turing), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.

Which should you buy: GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER or GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB?

The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB 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 2080 SUPER if you find it at a steep discount.

Frequently Asked Questions
