Setting Levels and Use: The 2080 Ti and RT X 2080 Juke
The 1080 TI and 2080 RT X Juke are two graphics cards that have been pitted against each other to see how they perform. As can be seen from the tests, both cards are fairly ahead of their predecessors in terms of performance. In these tests, both the 1080 TI and 2080 RT X Juke were able to deliver impressive performance gains over their lower tier counterparts.
Average Performance Improvements
The average performance improvements with the 2080 RT X Juke applied at 1080p were a 5.9% improvement, while at 1440p they rose up to 6.7%. At 4k, the average increase in performance was a significant 8.2%. These results show that even at lower resolutions, the 2080 RT X Juke is able to deliver impressive performance gains.
Fan Performance and Temperature
In terms of fan performance, the 2080 RT X Juke was not significantly different from the non-overclocked version of the card. However, when the fans were measured in more detail, it became clear that they did make a small difference. The average and peak fan speeds were relatively low, even under stress testing conditions.
Temperature Measurements
The temperature measurements taken using the Heaven benchmark showed that the 2080 RT X Juke was able to run silently for most of the time. However, the backplate was slightly warmer than expected, with temperatures ranging from around mid-60s to high-80s Celsius. This may be due to the fact that the card is already overclocked, and therefore has a higher operating temperature.
Performance Improvements Compared to 1080 Ti
In comparison to the 1080 TI, the 2080 RT X Juke was able to deliver slightly better performance in some games. However, the difference was not dramatic, and in many cases it was not noticeable.
Overclocking the 2080 Ti
The author of the review did manage to overclock the 1080 TI, but unfortunately this was only possible for a short period of time before they were unable to achieve stable speeds. This meant that they were unable to fully take advantage of the potential performance gains offered by the 2080 RT X Juke.
Testing the 20 Series Technologies
Unfortunately, the author of the review did not have access to games that utilized some of the new technologies promised by NVIDIA's 20 series, such as ray tracing and DLSS. This meant that they were unable to test these features in action, which may have provided a more comprehensive understanding of the 2080 RT X Juke's capabilities.
Pricing
The price of the 2080 RT X Juke was listed at $830 USD on YouGee, although it is currently out of stock. In Australia, the card was listed for $1,450 AUD on PC Case Gear, although this price may not be accurate at present. The author notes that prices can fluctuate over time, and encourages readers to check the links in the description for the latest prices.
Conclusion
Overall, while the 2080 RT X Juke is a powerful graphics card, its performance gains are not dramatic enough to justify its high price point compared to some of NVIDIA's other offerings. However, if you're looking to future-proof your system and take advantage of the new technologies offered by NVIDIA's 20 series, then the 2080 RT X Juke may be worth considering.
In conclusion, this review has provided a comprehensive analysis of the MSI RT X 2080 Juke, including its performance gains over the 1080 TI, fan performance and temperature measurements, and pricing. While the card is certainly powerful, it's not without its drawbacks, and readers should carefully consider their options before making a purchase.
System Power Draw
The system power draw of the 2080 RT X Juke was relatively high, especially when compared to some other graphics cards on the market. However, this may be due in part to the author's use of a cheap tool to measure width, which may not be entirely accurate.
Overall, while the 2080 RT X Juke is a powerful graphics card, its performance gains are not dramatic enough to justify its high price point compared to some of NVIDIA's other offerings.
