Notes
The GeForce RTX 2080 features 8GB GDDR6 memory on Turing architecture, introducing ray tracing to high-end gaming with 2,944 CUDA cores and first-generation RT cores. This GPU delivered excellent 1440p and capable 4K gaming with pioneering ray tracing features. Built for early ray tracing adoption and high-refresh 1440p gaming. Despite being several generations old with early ray tracing implementation, it remains functional for 1440p gaming. The introduction of dedicated ray tracing hardware marked an important milestone. Often available at budget pricing for users seeking older high-end performance with basic ray tracing capabilities.
