2080Ti 4k 60fps: Was NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080Ti a 4K/60fps GPU?

Was NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080Ti a 4K/60fps GPU?

PC Performance Analyses

In 2018, NVIDIA released the high-end model for its Turing GPUs, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080Ti. Back then, NVIDIA advertised that GPU as a 4K/60fps graphics card. Thus, we’ve decided to collect in a single article all of the games we’ve benchmarked these past two years, and see whether this GPU was able to achieve that initial goal.

For these benchmarks, we used an Intel i9 9900K with 16GB of DDR4 at 3600Mhz. We also used the latest version of Windows 10.

Do note that in this article we’ll be focusing on pure rasterization performance. We’ve also excluded any DLSS results, as the earlier versions of this tech weren’t that good. With DLSS 2.0, NVIDIA has managed to achieve something extraordinary. However, there are currently only five games that support DLSS 2.0 and these are: CONTROL, Mechwarrior 5, Wolfenstein Youngblood, Death Stranding and Deliver Us The Moon.

We also won’t focus on this GPU’s Ray Tracing support/performance. Similarly to DLSS, there are only a few games that support real-time ray tracing. Among them, there are only two that offer a full ray/path tracing renderer, and these are Minecraft RTX and Quake 2 RTX. Both of them look absolutely stunning, and will undoubtedly give you a glimpse at the future of PC gaming graphics. However, the overall adoption of real-time ray tracing wasn’t that high these past two years.

It’s also worth explaining what 4K/60fps means to us and to companies. For us, a GPU that has a minimum framerate of 60fps in 4K is a GPU that can be truly described as a 4K/60fps graphics card. However, most companies advertise their GPUs as “4K/60fps” when their average framerate hits 60fps or above (regardless of whether there are drops below 60fps in some scenes). Therefore, keep that in mind when viewing the following results.

So, with these out of the way, let’s see how the NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080Ti performed in 83 PC games on 4K/Ultra settings. Needless to say that you can find below benchmarks from a lot of triple-A games; from Battlefield 5 and Doom Eternal to Red Dead Redemption 2 and Horizon Zero Dawn.

As we can see, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080Ti was unable to offer a 60fps experience in 40 games. Additionally, and while the average framerate was above 60fps, in 21 games the minimum framerate was below 60fps. Thus, in only 22 games the NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080 was able to offer a constant 60fps experience on 4K/Ultra.

These results also justify why we were describing the RTX2080Ti as a “1440/Ultra settings” GPU. Despite what some PC gamers thought when this GPU came out, the RTX2080Ti was only ideal for 1440p. While you can hit 60fps in 43 games in 4K, there are drops below 60fps in half of them. In total, 73% of our benchmarked games were dropping below 60fps on the RTX2080Ti in 4K. On the other hand, and in all of these games, the RTX2080Ti can offer a smooth and constant 60fps gaming experience on 1440p/Ultra settings.

With the release of the next-gen games, the RTX2080Ti may even struggle running some of them in 1440p/Ultra. Thus, it will be interesting to see how the RTX2080Ti will handle the upcoming next-gen games. It will be also interesting to see whether more games will adopt DLSS 2.0.

Before closing, we’d like to let you know that we’ll get an NVIDIA GeForce RTX3080 when it comes out. As always, we’ll purchase this GPU ourselves (like a customer, just like you). Since availability may be limited, we may not get one at launch day. Still, we plan to get both the RTX3080 and the Big Navi. Naturally, we’ll be sure to benchmark the RTX3080 with our most demanding games. Therefore, it will be interesting to see whether games like Quantum Break can finally run in 4K/Ultra with 60fps. It will also be interesting to see for how long this GPU will run games with 60fps on 4K/Ultra settings!

Metro Exodus Requires an RTX 2080 Ti for 4K/60FPS

The Metro series will soon be a trilogy, with the Ukrainian gaming studio 4A Games getting to launch Metro Exodus on the 15th February 2019. If you’re hoping for a silky-smooth experience at a glorious 4K/2160p resolution, however, you might be disappointed unless you also have deep pockets. Not only will it require a brand new GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, but also a similarly costly Intel Core i9-9900K.

At the age of 18, Russian author Dmitry Glukhovsky published his debut novel Metro 2033, which tells a tale of survival in Moscow’s subway system in the aftermath of a nuclear war. The plot was the basis for a game with the same name in 2010. Three years later, the sequel Metro: Last Light was released.

Metro Exodus will be released shortly and is the third part of the series, taking over where Last Light ended. Initially, there was talk of a late 2018 release, but it was later postponed until February 15, 2019. Now the developer 4A Games has released some system requirements for Metro Exodus – and they all point to a very demanding title with support for real-time ray tracing and, from the looks of it, many other visually pleasing frame rate killers.

The system requirements have subdivided into four levels, with hardware recommendations for each resolution and refresh rate combination.

Metro Exodus System Requirements	1080p, 30 FPS (Low preset)	1080p, 60 FPS (High preset)	1440p, 60 FPS (Ultra preset)	2160p/4K, 60 FPS (Extreme preset)
Operating System	Windows 7, 8 or 10	Windows 10	Windows 10	Windows 10
Processor	Intel Core i5-4440	Intel Core i7-4770K	Intel Core i7-8700K	Intel Core i9-9900K
RAM	8 GB	8 GB	16 GB	16 GB
Graphics Card	Nvidia GeForce GTX 670, GTX 1050 or AMD Radeon HD 7870	Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070, RTX 2060 or AMD RX Vega 56	Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, RTX 2070 or AMD RX Vega 64	Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti
VRAM	2 GB	8 GB	8 GB	11 GB

While the minimum requirements for an acceptable experience (30 FPS) at 1,920 × 1,080 pixels look rather normal, all higher settings are obviously very demanding.  To achieve smooth, 60 FPS frame rates at the high preset, you’re going to need more power than any $200 GPU can provide, namely an Nvidia Geforce GTX 1070, GeForce RTX 2060 or an AMD RX Vega 56, in addition to a faster Core i7-4770K processor. And already at 1440p, albeit at a higher preset, the requirements include last year’s performance leader, a GTX 1080 Ti. 

Plus, to get ray tracing support, you will of course need one of the new Nvidia RTX cards, as these are the only ones  that support the technology so far. Metro Exodus will also be available for Playstation 4 and Xbox One on February 15, but it’s safe to say that the PC version will look much better if you manage to meet the requirements beyond the bare minimum.

Even the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti won’t let you run RDR 2 at maximum quality settings in 4K resolution and 60FPS

NVIDIA has released a new Game Ready Driver Pack (Version 441.12) to provide the necessary optimizations for PC versions of Western Red Dead Redemption 2 (release tomorrow) and the racing game Need for Speed ​​Heat (expected to release this Friday). The official changelog also mentions performance improvements for the recent shooter Borderlands 3 .

But the most interesting was the new article from the tech team’s official blog, where it offers a list of graphics accelerators that are recommended for running the PC version of Red Dead Redemption 2 at 60FPS. It looks like the top graphics cards will have to work hard on the to get the best performance at high resolutions. NVIDIA recommends GeForce RTX 2060 for 1080P@60FPS gaming, 1440P@60FPS will require GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER and GeForce RTX 2080T i will run western at 4K.

However, company representatives noted that even the powerful RTX 2080Ti graphics card will not be able to pull out the maximum quality settings at 4K and 60FPS. Their recommendation is that gamers will either have to reduce some graphics settings to medium values, or reduce the rendering resolution of the image to 3264×1836 or 2880×1620 pixels, and then compensate for its loss by using the sharpening and upscaling technologies available in the NVIDIA control panel. nine0003

The PC version of Red Dead Redemption 2 will offer a built-in performance test to simplify the task of selecting the necessary graphics settings.
