About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Mobile GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Mobile is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q1 2019. It is built on the Turing GPU microarchitecture (codename TU104) and is manufactured on a 12 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 2080 Mobile has 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 1,750 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 448 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RTX 2080 Mobile includes 2,944 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,380 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,590 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 184 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 64 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 368 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 46 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 150 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The RTX 2080 Mobile has the 60th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 33.36% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q4 2016 with a MSRP of $139. It is built on the Pascal GPU microarchitecture (codename GP107) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.

Memory

The GTX 1050 Ti has 4 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,752 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 112.1 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The GTX 1050 Ti includes 768 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,291 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,392 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 48 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 32 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GTX 1050 Ti occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports DVI, HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 250 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 75 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The GTX 1050 Ti has the 186th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 9.04% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 9,453 score and $139 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 68.01. This is the 47th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
