@W1zzard

Just a thought and I know it might be a lot of work, but would it be possible to have the graphs be "interactive" like some other sites do, i.e. you can click on a given card and it become the 100% point? That way it's much easier to see how many % faster something higher up the list is?

Then you lose the ability to link to the chart images, which is what A LOT of people do. Anywhere I looked in forums and social media I see our charts

@W1zzard Can both not be posted? Or a direct link next to the active chart maybe? (or vice versa)

It's not that hard to figure the percentage. When the card reviewed is 100 and the GPU that you want to compare it to is 110 then that GPU is 10% faster than the reviewed card. If the GPU is 90 on the chart then divide 100 by 90 and you get 1.11 so that GPU is 11% slower than the reviewed card. If it's 60 on the chart then 100/60 = 1.67 so that GPU is 67% slower than the reviewed card. I keep a free calculator on my desktop for that.

I know it can be figured out, but if you want to quickly compare e.g. 5 or 6 cards, it's massively easier to just click on them. Especially if you have a list of 20 and the ones you are interested in are all over the place in the chart. ;) Then there are multiple charts and multiple resolutions etc.

I guess this is a just RTX 20 Super series review to see how good the super series really r for the cards they replace/fit in the class.

But I really wish @W1zzard kept GTX 1080 Ti in here I would still love to see how it stacks up to the RTX 2080 Super.

Nice review even it's nothing that much new I still think only way I will feel much improvement in my system will be with a RTX 2080 Ti which is such a shame.
Agreed, I had my theories and I still have them not just for TPU but in general and certainly from Nvidia's point of view lol.

Bah, I forgot to include it. New charts uploaded with more cards for comparison

However, ask and ye shall receive. Much appreciated W1zzard, also appreciate the reviews, I was slamming the card not so much you or your reviews which are usually the only ones I bother reading when cards come out now.

Just noticed that you mention the game engine for every game tested, nice addition. Just a couple of old engines: Rage 2 Avalanche engine were renamed to Apex A.O.W engine and Wolfenstein II uses idTech 6 last idtech 5 game was Wolfenstein old blood.

Something is wrong with the 1080Ti testing, ive benchmarked ME:SoW on max settings with my Strix 1080Ti (mild OC) at 1440p and i got 100FPS vs the 79.9 FPS here, your 1080Ti might be faulty or overheating.. or something isnt working right, loosing 20%+ because its an FE card is just not possible.
Edit: Somehow all the 1080Ti results are now gone.. im confused.
Edit 2: Just found out i got the 2080 Super FE and Zotac 2080 Super Amp extreme reviews mixed up

Usually @W1zzard don't mess up plus not every board is equal plus drivers can also make a difference.

Is it just me does it seem the 60S, 70S and 80S are irrelevant cards now??? None of them are what you truly need for a 60fps 4k experience and all of them get you where you need to be at 2k and lower.

To me it seems there are only 4 cards worth looking at. 1660ti. 5700, 5700xt and 2080ti. And maybe the RX580/90 for budget options.

The 2080S VS 5700XT argument is a moot point as both cards struggle fairly equally at 4k and both deliver at 2k down. Why pay an extra $300 for a slightly better but still just mediocre 4k preformance??

While the Super refresh brings better value to the table they all seem grossly overpriced next to the new Navi cards. I know you get RT and DLSS and I would pay for those features but for me I wouldn't spend more than $600 for the 2080S. I just don't think it is worth $700 at this point.

The 2080ti gets you all the goods at 4k but seems like a big spend this late in the 2000 series cycle with 7nm on the horizon for NVIDIA and Intel coming to the party?

Agree with the exception of the 2080S. I'm actually on day 3 of using the 2080S and it runs 4k 60fps at very worst mixture of high and very high settings on poorly optimzed games. Majority of games i've tested very high settings.

The 2080S VS 5700XT argument is a moot point as both cards struggle fairly equally at 4k
The 2080S is slightly over 30% faster than the 5700XT at 4k. Huge difference between those two (30% if enough to raise every setting either a tier or tier and half more than the 5700XT)

No competition? Competition is at it's highest for yeats and there will be one or two more players coming into the GPU market in all likelyhood. Stacking is coming too.

There is no competition from AMD for the RTX 2080 Super or 2080ti.

Yet ... and the 5700XT is better value than the 2080S.
