is the 2080 super better than a 1080 ti?

as the title says, if you could let me know, thanks.

In actual gameplay, yes.

Yes, generally the new *80 will be similar or better than the previous gen *80 ti. In this case the 2080 super is even better than the 2080, which I believe was slightly better than the 1080 ti. 

[Jurrunio]

yes but in the realm of 10%, that's why 1080ti are still so sought-after and used price dont drop nearly as much as the lower down Pascal cards.

[orbitalbuzzsaw]

Strictly performance wise yes, but it's in the range of 5-10% better. Value wise, a 1080 Ti is a much stronger proposition and I would recommend 9/10 times over a 2080S

[JoostinOnline]

Yes, but not in price to performance. Nvidia significantly raised their prices this generation, which kind of screwed up the comparisons that we'd all gotten comfortable making.

It is not an upgrade. It could be a replacement if a 1080 ti died.

That is the downside to owning 1080 tis. Only the 2080 ti is an upgrade.

 

I would not recommend one over a 2080S but if a budget only alows for a 1080 ti you would not be missing much.

a good GTX 1080ti that can overclock to 2ghz like the one i got will be within spitting distance of the 2080 super in most situations.

1080ti has more video memory which can help with some high resolution VR simulations like iRacing or flight simulators if you're into that...

and the 1080ti has 512 more cuda cores...so if they run at the same clock speed, in more computational oriented loads the 1080ti might have an edge.

 

That said, 1080ti is an old card now, heck even 2080ti is old at this point...so a used card that has been overclocked and used a lot might not last long so i wouldnt'

recommend it unless it's from EVGA and you live in canada or USA. Cause then if it break you call them and setup an RMA and they'll confirm and just send you back a more recent card, like say a RTX 2080 super

 

If you play AAA titles and just want to game for the forseable future the 2080 super is a better choice unless you can find a REALLY good local deal on a 1080ti.
