GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs Radeon RX 5700: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs Radeon RX 5700
The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is noticeably faster, around 13% ahead of the Radeon RX 5700. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.
Price & Value
The Radeon RX 5700 currently lists from $426 EUR, $578 EUR less than the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti at $1,004 EUR. Despite being slower, the Radeon RX 5700 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~108% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The Radeon RX 5700 still sits about $77 EUR above its $349 EUR MSRP. The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti still sits about $305 EUR above its $699 EUR MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 180W against 250W, the Radeon RX 5700 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern RDNA architecture on a TSMC N7 process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti carries 11GB versus 8GB on the Radeon RX 5700. The extra 3GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers.
Generation & Longevity
The Radeon RX 5700 is roughly 2 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti (RDNA vs Pascal), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 5700 offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti or Radeon RX 5700?
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 Radeon RX 5700 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
