Clock Speeds

The average boost clock speed is, of course, the most important number, and the Ti might not have the outright speed of the RTX 3080 partner cards, but as we know from our time with the RTX 3090 and similarly high-hardware cards, the more cores you have the slower things are. Slow is, naturally, relative. This is still a super fast card as you’ll soon see.
