Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you are asking yourself this question, then the answer is probably no. That is my answer to the question "Is it worth it" but I bought one anyways. Why? Because I could actually use the performance in the games and resolution I play at (4K), I love new technology, and I can afford to buy the card without too much concern other than grief from the wife. That said, who should seriously consider buying this card, worth it or not: 1) Anyone gaming at 4K and wants 60 FPS average or 3440x1440p and wants 100+ FPS on a G-Sync panel. This card is NOT going to wow you at lower resolutions like 1080p or 2560x1440p, but at 4K the difference is 40% over 1080Ti which is a pretty big boost and often enough to put you over that elusive 4K/60 barrier where the 1080Ti was close but not quite there. 2) Anyone who doesn't mind dropping $1K on a video card, previous Titan buyers, benchmark enthusiasts, that kind of thing. 3) Anyone who already owned a 1080Ti and understands there's nothing else faster for the foreseeable future. So why isn't it worth it? Most people will correctly point out RTX 2000 series is the smallest performance jump and one of the biggest price increases from one generation of Nvidia cards to another. That said, the price increase also contains a lot of forward looking and speculative features like Ray Tracing and Tensor cores for a new method of anti-aliasing that boasts of improved image quality at a fraction of the previous performance. If you buy this card, you are basically funding the R&D and adoption rate for these features as an investment for the future. Not everyone is going to go for it, and that's certainly understandable, but that's why this card is so expensive. Its massive, its forward looking and its expensive to make. As for the performance, I ran a few benchmarks and they are in-line with published benches, Farcry5, FFXV, AC: Odyssey, all within 2-3 FPS of online benches. Overclocking is good, about the same as Pascal 2080Ti. The new FE cooler is outstanding in terms of build quality, but temps will touch into high 70s when overclocked so you need to turn the speed up. Overall its much quieter than the old blower fans but make sure you have good case airflow. I took one star off which had nothing to do with the performance of the card which is definitely impressive. 1/2 star off for the price hike from Nvidia to $1200 for a non-Titan card. Another 1/2 star off for a poorly executed launch where this card was announced on 8/20 and supposed to ship on 9/20 but was delayed 2x. BestBuy was also late, but that wasn't their fault, it was an Nvidia supply issue and they still managed to only be 2 days late for me, which was great. Also, no RTX case badge from Nvidia this time, they've had this with their GTX founders cards since the 900 series. Overall VERY pleased with this card despite the price, and not being worth it, but hey, I'm going to keep it anyways. I would not recommend it to a friend though, because what kind of friend would recommend a $1200 graphics card to their friend???

If you have the extra cash laying around, buy this card. I upgraded from a GTX 1080 Ti and noticed a jump from 90 FPS to 140 FPS at 3440x1440. The card runs quieter and is smaller than my MSI DUKE 1080 Ti and fits better in my case. This thing is a beast. Although it supports RTX, I’ve yet to even enable it. Best Buy was great too for sending me the 3 free game codes as well. Thanks guys!

I got lucky and recived a card that is not currently defective. Easy installation and boot up once in the game nividia experience auto set the graphic configurations. Ultra everything no problem at 1080 144hz runs most games at 170 plus to max game settings. But it auto scaled resolution to 200% on everything which without realizing it was dipping fps to 120 plus but big spike dips. Still super good for 2 k 144hz but 4k is still not up to par you'll still be getting roughly 60 to 75fps on ultra. Mine luckly stays cool and quite for a founders card. At 144hz ultra 270 fps highest it hits is 81 C or 177F with 4 stock case fans on there own learning curve (smart case h700i) Ok now the features ray tracing and dlss. Almost none existent. Battlefield just launched rtx that's it. And it's not super impressive. Youll roughly get 50 to 70 fps at 1440p at 1080 you'll roughly get 60 to 80fps. Plus the power house pc you need to run it tho if your spending 1200 on a graphics card it better be up there anyways. Overall I enjoy it for 2k ultra no rtx. Rtx is at its early stages and without games to see the performance of it and dlss it's not worth the 1200 price tag. Also with the newer 7nm in the talks I have a feeling this will be around for a year or two before the next card comes out and assuming those rumors hold it will be better plus you have time to see implementation. They also announced they stopped production of the 1080ti. So if your going to get a new card I'd get a 1080ti soon.

If you want literally the best graphics card , this is it hands down. No issue maxing out pretty much any game in my steam library. Fairly quiet and built like a tank.

Replaced my Titan XP from 2016 with this FE 2080Ti. Huge performance increase from the cherry picked GPU die Nvidia keeps for their own Founder Edition line of cards. GPU is OC'd + 210 and Memory +1200 in afterburn on a EK waterblock. Amazing Speeds :)

The ray tracing on the 2080Ti is phenomenal! I use the highest settings on all my games for graphics now and everything runs perfectly and smoothly! It is a bit expensive of course, but for future-proofing my PC and getting the top of the line right now, you can't beat it!

Playing games 2-4 hours a night, I have at least 1 crash per night while playing 4k with HDR on. Recently however, Shadow of the Tomb Raider has crashed multiple times in under 10 mins. According to forums, it's believed to be an issue with the GDDR6 memory degrading.. which seems to make sense in my case seeing how after a month it's crashing in under 10 mins. Setup: CyberpowerPC i7-7700k 4.2 GHZ, 32 GB RAM 1,000 Watt Power Supply First setup, using factory overclock out of the box connected to surround receiver via HDMI then HDMI to 65" 4k oled. The error I always get is not enough memory, so I tried doing a manual overclock using EVGA Precicions X1 software.. it still crashed. NVIDIA recommended connecting directly to TV. Connected HDMI to TV and display port to HDMI to provide HDMI to receiver. This setup also crashed with manual overclock. They said they will get back to me, however I'm going to cut my losses and return the card. It seems like a unfinished product at this point and is too expensive to risk getting stuck with a paperweight. I'm attaching a screenshot of my overclock that went well.. for about 5 mins then crashed. The GPU temps were good.. so don't what happened.

Price is high but is to be expected for the Titan level of performance. I water blocked this bad boy and it's been running great. Check out GamersNexus on YouTube for more detailed reveiws

Excellent all around powerful does not hesitate to run anything !

If you are buying this card you know what matters is performance. Only the RTX Titan is above this card in performance (ok and Volta but that's not in the same ballpark). This is not the best bang for the buck videocard but you should know this already. You are buying this to game 4K or 1440p 144hz max settings. Ray tracing is not supported by many games right now so that is just the icing on the cake and it seems like the lower RTX cards will struggle a little. I upgraded from the 1080 Ti to this card and to be honest I couldn't tell much of a difference. Regardless, this is a beast card and the build quality is impeccable (other than the faulty RAM some units had). I picked this model over the aftermarket because I have seen reference models maintain their resale value better when the next generation comes out.

First off, this card is EXPENSIVE. The price to performance ratio is absolutely abysmal. This is probably the worst series revision in NVIDIA's history due to how little of a gain it is on the previous series vs the cost increase. That being said, this is the first gaming card that can truly say it can run games at 4k/60fps. Sure, you could get that on the 1080Ti or the regular 2080, but you had to compromise quite a bit in the settings depending on the game. With the 2080Ti, you can put the settings all the way up and get 4k at roughly 60fps. The two games I've tried so far (will update as I try more games): Forza Horizon 4 never dips below 60fps with all settings maxed. Assassin's Creed Odyssey averages 50-60 fps fully maxed with some dips into the 30s for a second when a lot of objects are being loaded. My assumption is this will improve to true 60fps with driver updates or even a game update since V-Sync is required in this game to eliminate screen tearing. It might even improve with a slight overclock, which I'll try in a few weeks. Bottom line, unless you are trying to push 4k/60fps on ultra or are trying to push UWQHD at 120+fps, I would not recommend this card. The only reason I purchased this is because I've had a computer I built for the purpose of gaming on my 4k TV sitting waiting for this generation for the last half a year. I'm pleased with the performance so far, but the price is insane.

So I have had this GPU for about 1 month! I switched over from the MSI GTX 1660. I am very happy with how this GPU has been performing so far! I game pretty often as well as dabble in movie and graphics editing! I have this paired with the AMD 3950X CPU! Both of these together are monsters! Anything I have thrown at the GPU has handled it very well! I went from getting 75-90 FPS on my shooter games to well over 200 FPS! (Setting are set low to medium) I also have my pc paired with a BenQ Zowie XL2546! (1080P 240hz) for gaming and an LG 34UC98-W 34-Inch (1440P for editing) I would recommend this product to anyone that is a medium to heavy gamer/editor! The only con that I have to mention is that it does run about 8-10 degrees Celsius hotter than my 1660, however that is normal for this GPU!

Great card , great performance but way overpriced . I honestly dont know what was Nvidia thinking to put $1200 price tag on it . Temperatures on air cooling could be better but after i switched to water it never went over 50 C . Just like most of the Nvidia cards have great performance , good looks and easy overclocking . The only negative thing that i could find was the factory thermal pads and paste were poorly applied and by poorly i mean terrible . So quality control not so good but i guess after produce thousands/millions of these some percent could be overlooked . All in all as i said great card but not worth $1200 imo . Still have to give it a 5 stars

Pros: This card is really fast it can handle anything at high frame rates -If you have a wide screen 1440p or a 4k monitor then get this card and you wont be disappointed. Cons: -This card runs too hot due to the thermal paste that dried up. -I suggest if you pick this card up you might need to change the stock thermal paste with a better cooling solution (in my case: I replaced the stock cooler with a waterblock) or else you’ll always going to have thermal throttling issue or unable to overclock this card. -This card is way too overpriced. Overall this card runs amazing, it can handle any games you throw at it at high settings.

I am very happy with my RTX 2080ti so far. I am looking forward to utilizing the Ray Tracing and DLSS features, however, it would've been nice to see content at launch. The card plays all my current games smoothly at ultra settings on my 3440x1440p ultrawide. The expense is hard to swallow without being able to know how well Ray Tracing and DLSS will be when available. I still am happy with the card. I am upgrading from an original Titan Black superclocked. I skipped over the last generation Nvidia cards.

My games look great and run smoothly but there is one bit of a flaw... Mosfet buzz/"coil whine." As soon as temps hit around 45-50 degrees celcius, there is a strange whining/buzzing sound that occurs. Through much research I found that these are Mosfet coils and it is very common. I even contacted Nvidia support and was able to RMA the card, but my new one has the same issue. A friend also bought the same card and his doesn't have the buzz, but upon researching more and more, I found that it's just the luck of the draw. In one post I read, a guy RMA'd his 3 times and they all had the noise. The fans are also as noisy as a jet engine, same on friend's card, so if you want quiet, go for water cooled. I now wish I would have water cooled but this card already costs so much and I couldn't spend more. It truly games beautifully but the noise is horrible. Research tons and make sure whatever you get doesn't have Mosfet buzz. I just wish I knew that before buying this card. Would have been 5 stars if it wasn't so noisy.

It's literally the best gaming card on the market. 4k 60fps on ultra settings for most games. Bit expensive but again it's literally the best. The founders edition is nice because it's a bit smaller than other 2080's so it fits in smaller cases. Ray tracing looks great but at this point not many games support it so buy this card if you want the best possible performance and ray tracing ability in the future.

I've been using this card for 5 months now, and haven't had any major issues with it. It performs rather well, so far every game I've played has been able to run on max settings. My build has an i7-9700L 3.60GHz and 32GB of RAM inside, so I can run pretty much anything at max. I've played Modern Warfare, Destiny 2, The Division 2, Metro Exodus, and all other sorts of games and have had 0 issues with their performance. A few of the ones I mentioned utilize RTX, which really looks spectacular, especially Modern Warfare. The card does run hot like others have said, but that is the norm with this card. It won't impact your performance, so long as your case has good airflow. The only issue I've had is that either the fan or the coil in the card was making this noise that I hadn't heard before, but that only happened once. When I stopped playing my game it went away and hasn't come back since. Apparently that's not out of the norm, and it won't affect your card in any way (see here for more info: https://www.evga.com/support/faq/FAQdetails.aspx?faqid=59535). Sure this is an expensive card, and with new cards supposedly coming out soon, maybe I bought it too late. Honestly though, this card should last me quite a long time, so I'm not too worried about upgrading or needing to anytime soon.

I upgraded to this card from a 1080TI I, and immediately I saw an improvement on my FPS. I just don't think that my FPS is where it should be with the power that this card delivers. I am seeing about 10 FPS increase over the 1080TI, But it seems that I only get true 60 FPS in 1440 P . 4K still seems to struggle, even though this card states that it is 4K60 all day long, I have not found that to be true. I have 32 gigs of ram, an 8700 K that is water cooled, MK2 solid-state drives, and an 850 Watt power supply which has each PCIE power cable on separate units. The Ray tracing is incredible, but I feel for the money that I spent i should be seeing much better FPS than I do.

This is hands down the best consumer graphics card for gaming, even outpacing the Titan V in benchmarking. It may be expensive, but if you are looking for a card to run 4k at 60fps, or 1440p/21:9 resolutions at 100+fps, this is your best option. Ray tracing is early days, but games like Metro are gorgeous.
