GeForce RTX 2080 Ti vs Radeon RX 580 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti GPU is faster than the Radeon RX 580 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 2080 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 RTX 2080 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 GeForce RTX 2080 Ti has slightly more memory with 11 GiB of memory compared to 8 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the Radeon RX 580 has a slightly lower TDP at 185 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 2080 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 RTX 2080 Ti is better than the Radeon RX 580.
