GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs Radeon RX 580 2048SP benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti beats the Radeon RX 580 2048SP in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti has a slightly 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 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.

In addition, the Radeon RX 580 2048SP has a significantly lower TDP at 150 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 terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is better than the Radeon RX 580 2048SP.
