GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Max-Q vs GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Max-Q graphics card is better than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q in our tests.

The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Max-Q 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 RTX 2070 SUPER Max-Q also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that they both have the same amount of memory at 8 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, both the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Max-Q and the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q have an identical TDP. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Max-Q is faster than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q.
