GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs Quadro RTX 5000 Max-Q specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti beats the Quadro RTX 5000 Max-Q in gaming performance.

The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, the Quadro RTX 5000 Max-Q has significantly more memory with 16 GiB of memory compared to 11 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the Quadro RTX 5000 Max-Q has a significantly lower TDP at 80 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti at 250 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti over the Quadro RTX 5000 Max-Q.
