AI Summary
At $699, the GeForce RTX 2080 delivers solid performance, topping many mid‑range cards from its era and maintaining high frame rates at 1080p/1440 in games such as Elden Ring and Starfield. Its 8 GB GDDR6 and DLSS support keep it competitive, but the newer 30‑ and 40‑series cards offer better price‑performance and ray‑tracing speeds in 2025, making the RTX 2080 a good, if not future‑proof, choice for 1440p gaming.
Pros
- Strong 3DMark (10843) and Passmark (18747) scores that outperform RTX 2070 and RTX 2060
- 8 GB GDDR6 gives ample memory headroom for Forza Horizon 5 at high settings
- Good DLSS performance in modern titles, raising Starfield to 41 fps at 1080p ultra with DLSS
- Competitive price compared to the RTX 2080 Super while offering similar performance
Cons
- Outdated architecture; newer cards like RTX 3060 Ti and RTX 3070 provide better price‑performance
- Ray‑tracing performance drops below 30 fps at 2160p, limiting future high‑res workloads
- Lacks newer memory types (e.g., GDDR6X, HBM2) seen in next‑gen GPUs
- Driver support may lag as NVIDIA focuses on newer architectures
