The GeForce RTX 2080 Engineering Sample is a graphics card by NVIDIA, that was never released. Built on the 12 nm process, and based on the TU104 graphics processor, in its TU104-400A-A1 variant, the card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate. This ensures that all modern games will run on GeForce RTX 2080 Engineering Sample. Additionally, the DirectX 12 Ultimate capability guarantees support for hardware-raytracing, variable-rate shading and more, in upcoming video games. The TU104 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 545 mm² and 13,600 million transistors. It features 3072 shading units, 192 texture mapping units, and 64 ROPs. Also included are 384 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. The card also has 48 raytracing acceleration cores. NVIDIA has paired 8 GB GDDR6 memory with the GeForce RTX 2080 Engineering Sample, which are connected using a 256-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 1515 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1710 MHz, memory is running at 1750 MHz (14 Gbps effective).
Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Engineering Sample draws power from 1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 215 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x HDMI 2.0, 3x DisplayPort 1.4a, 1x USB Type-C. GeForce RTX 2080 Engineering Sample is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 3.0 x16 interface. The card's dimensions are 267 mm x 116 mm x 35 mm, and it features a dual-slot cooling solution.
