RTX 2080 Ti Vs TITAN RTX

[Spritelens219]

Which is best for gaming?
Which is best for office work?
Why or Why not?

[Cloudy]

They are pretty much equal for gaming, and for office work all I can say is... it depends what application you're doing.

Gaming wise, the Titan is disappointing given its price tag, so it's not even worth mentioning outside of workstation use.

RTX 2080 Ti= Gaming
Titan RTX= Professional productivity work

Not entirely correct.

Radeon cards actually are better for workstations.

but the radeon was not in the choices, read the question.

Performance to cost ratio it depends. Do you "really need" an RTX Titan?
"Office work" what sort of office work?

If you were asking between products, and someone knew of something that would be much better for the task, would you shun them for telling you this alternative? I doubt it, unless you're some super hardcore fanboy.

The RTX Titan is just a 2080ti with a couple more cores, and double the VRAM. (Well, 13GB more, but eh.)
So, unless the workload you're going to be doing is VRAM intensive, I doubt it would matter.

[Kaihekoa]

If you have to ask, you don't need a Titan.

[Mad Scientist]

From someone who closely worked with a large amount of these types of products:

Always avoid the Titan lineup. Always. Unless you absolutely, positively, need whatever extra feature it may have. They're usually glorified and overpriced versions of the previous most powerful unit, the amount of money they profit off of TITANs is insane vs cost of manufacturing.

[UserNotFound]

For gaming and some productivity work, the RTX would be good
For productivity work and some gaming, the Radeon VII would be good.


RTX Titan's not even worth mentioning simply because its price performance ratio is pretty out of wack.

Bingo and due to diminishing returns you won't see a return on the investment. Spend $4000 on a videocard either your like those rich idiots who think burning money is better than settling for something with more value oh and Apple "followers"

It's really stupid isn't it?
It only gives usually 2-5% additional performance than the unit below it. However, I buy the factory OC Water units; which performs better than an auto-OC'd TITAN. Save myself 50% or more than a TITAN for more performance. Not to mention the whole fiasco with the TITAN-Z half-price cut after a large amount of people purchased it. Don't get me wrong, NVIDIA is great for GPUs - but they make really poor business decisions including ripping people off with the TITAN prices.

Also yes with apple; don't even get me started in regard to them. Bought a phone for around 1/4th or 1/5th of the price and its far more powerful than their entire lineup.

[Monk]

Anyone who thinks the rtx titan is expensive is a fool.

For gaming, sure its pointless, but for professional work, it's a bargain at a fraction of the cost of the quadro's, same has pretty much always been true, it's all down to best tool for the job.

Edit.

As much as I dislike apple, you didn't buy a 200 buck smart phone that outperforms their latest flagship so stop talking bs.
Also, the margins on highend silicon isn't nearly as high as on mobiles, there are billions in R&D to recuperate as well as per unit cost.

Nvidia kind of acts like the Intel of the GPU world I'm still keeping my earn to the ground with AMD looking forward to the new Threadripper 3.

It all depends on the workload you are doing some tasks are VRAM intensive, complex scenes in Blender Cycles is an example same with OctaneRenderer not sure of RenderMan has gone GPU accelerated yet, I think the last published update they were working on it.


That depends on how much you get per job for an Architect, go for it time is money if you are doing precision mechanical engineering associated with fluid dynamics simulation and thermal simulation, go for it. But gaming it's pointless.


Apple does no RnD their RnD is focused solely on screwing the customer. T2 Security chip, shortened display cable, Non-user replacable battery and last but not least SOLDERED on RAM and SSD. Apples revenue is up because of "services" Apple Care. They create a problem then sell you the solution to the problem "stares at every lootbox enabled game" sound familiar?

And to top it off Apple taught the industry how to make money screwing you. Almost every company has, phased out headphone jacks, replacable batteries, 'forced water proofing" using glue instead of a sensible screwed into place high temperature rubber gasket with a hydrophobic coating would this be expensive? Maybe a little bit but Apple already coat their phones in oleophobic coating to keep oil away it's not that difficult to create a water-repelling / oil repelling coating. The only reason they haven't done something like this is all because they want to suck money from you like a vampire squid on a shark.

Oh and add to climate change / waste production so much damn waste is created by thrown away computers, iphones, and other devices it's insane. If Apple was being assessed for resource utilization efficiency I'd give their company a big fat F for fail of the highest order.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ throw away world economy.

Well, I didn't bring up apples rnd, but they do a crazy amount, most of the spray on waterproofing is actually highly toxic.... Not something you want on a consumer product really.
Also, rubber gaskets don't look as cool as clean phones I guess?
