GeForce RTX 3070 Ti vs GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 3070 Ti vs GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER
The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is dramatically faster, around 43% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is comfortable at 1440p, while the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is better matched to 1080p. The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti packs 6,144 CUDA cores versus 3,072 on the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER.
Price & Value
The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti currently lists from $66,300 JPY, $93,406 JPY less than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER at $159,706 JPY. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti wins on performance-per-dollar by about 244%. The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti still sits about $65,701 JPY above its $599 JPY MSRP. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER still sits about $159,007 JPY above its $699 JPY MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
On power, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is the gentler choice at 250W versus 290W. The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 290W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU. Its more modern Ampere architecture on a Samsung 8nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Memory & Bandwidth
The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti's memory is faster — 608 GB/s versus 496 GB/s — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is roughly 2 years newer than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER (Ampere 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 3070 Ti?
The GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 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.
