GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs GeForce RTX 2070: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs GeForce RTX 2070
The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is noticeably faster, around 13% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2070. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p. The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti packs 3,584 CUDA cores versus 2,304 on the GeForce RTX 2070.
Price & Value
Right now the GeForce RTX 2070 starts at $644 EUR against $1,004 EUR for the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti. Despite being slower, the GeForce RTX 2070 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~38% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 2070 still sits about $145 EUR above its $499 EUR MSRP. The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti still sits about $305 EUR above its $699 EUR MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce RTX 2070 draws just 175W versus 250W for the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Turing architecture on a TSMC 12nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
With 11GB against 8GB, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce RTX 2070's 8GB can fall short. The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti's memory is also faster — 484 GB/s versus 448 GB/s (352-bit vs 256-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti or GeForce RTX 2070?
Choose the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce RTX 2070 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
