Which is better for Blender? 2080TI or two 1080TI SLI

The title says it all :).

Blender apparently doesn't support RTX cards yet. Unless it's recently been updated, I've not checked for a while.

the SLI 1080ti will out produce the single 2080ti in blender.

the SLI offers more computational cores and with core speed as well.

I agree with @airdeano , outside of raytracing the performance difference between a 1080ti and a 2080ti isn't large enough to outperform an SLI setup.

 

May I ask what you use blender for? If you're considering this sort of investment in hardware for blender you must use it professionally, and that's fairly rare to come by... I always love seeing people use foss for their work.

I'm not actually going to buy them xD. I was just wondering which is better as they both come out at basically the same price.

If you really want to know I make 3D objects for Unity and occasionally render scenes but for me a 1080TI that I currently have is enough  .
