Overclocking
Although the extra hardware on the Super will naturally reduce the potential overclocking when compared to the regular RTX 2080 it still manages to push out some good overclocking scores and, perhaps more importantly, manages to maintain an average boost clock very close to the peak boost clock. As we've mentioned before, average boost clock has a much larger impact upon your frame rate than peak boost speed, because nobody plays games for a minute or two. You want smoothness over a lengthy gaming session, and the excellent cooling and smooth power delivery enables the RTX 2080 Super to keep chucking out high FPS no matter how long you're gaming for.

It's not exciting to you because you are not an enthusiast. Not sure what else you expected. What other tech tubers say doesn't mean jack diddly squat, most aren't enthusiast. BUT for enthusiast you may as well get it.Quote
My currently clocks for the Aorus 2080 are 1940mhz core.
I wonder how the higher memory clocks will help with AA and AAF as we as possible higher core clocks ?
QuoteSeeing a lot of "oh, Nvidia released another GTX 1080 Ti", which I think is a bad take. Some games love the changes Turing offers, with RAGE 2, Wolfenstein 2, Forza Horizon 4 and Battlefield V acting as prime examples. It is very likely that Turing will age much better than Pascal moving forward (this will no doubt be blamed on Nvidia borking their drivers, as usual).
I still think high-end Turing is too expensive, but at least Nvidia has lowered their pricing and offered more performance at these prices.
Ultimately, Turing can look great or terrible depending on what games you test. That said, it's typically the newest, most technically capable games that offer the largest benefits.Quote
