So my 1080 ti died of some sort of weird smoking out incident 2 weeks ago, the shop said theyre gonna refund but ill basically get a giftcard in the worth of my buy (which would be around 850 Euros) So my question is, should i go for a 2080 S which would be around the same price or invest the 300 more for 2080 ti ? 

My specs currently are an i 7 8700k oc´d to 5Ghz with 16 gb of 3000 mhz ram on an Asus Z370 E gaming. Ive got both a 144hz 1440p monitor and 4k 60hz monitor which i switch according to if im playing competetive (mostly Siege) or a sight seeing title/ watching a movie/video.

2080S, the extra 300 for like 6-8 fps in games wouldn't be worth it. At least to me.

anything else you'd want to buy? 2070S is currently Nvidia's fast GPU that can still be considered good value, if you want to buy something else I'd go with the 2070S and save some of that gift card money for extra stuff

6/8 fps? 


in most games its quite some more. 
Also... the 2080ti can handle raytracing much better. if you want to enabled it later when it has grown a bit more with newer titles. also, especially at 4k it is way better.
300 is still allot yes.. but if you think about it. he would only pay 300 for the 2080ti. not 1100 since of that gift card. i would personally do it.
