GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs GeForce RTX 5060 comparison

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 5060 graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti in our tests.

The GeForce RTX 5060 has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the GeForce RTX 5060 also has a significantly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 5060 has a significantly lower TDP at 145 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti at 250 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 5060 over the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti.
