GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Radeon RX 5700: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Radeon RX 5700

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is dramatically faster, around 40% 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, $112 EUR less than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER at $538 EUR. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER wins on performance-per-dollar by about 11%. The Radeon RX 5700 still sits about $77 EUR above its $349 EUR MSRP. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is trading below its $699 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal.

Power & Efficiency

On power, the Radeon RX 5700 is the gentler choice at 180W versus 250W. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 250W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 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.
