With no real threat from AMD at the high end, the RTX 2080 and 2080 Ti remain unchallenged. Still, it’s nearly a year after the launch of the GeForce RTX cards, and just in time for the back-to-school season, Nvidia’s new and improved product is now available. Take the same TU104 GPU that’s used in the RTX 2080, enable all of the streaming multiprocessors and CUDA cores, and crank the GDDR6 memory clock up from 14Gb/s to 15.5Gb/s. Depending on your reference point, GPU clocks are either nearly the same or about 100MHz faster. In other words, it’s not an incredibly exciting launch. If you’ve got an RTX 2080, you can get nearly the same performance via overclocking. If you’ve been thinking about buying a $700 graphics card, though, the RTX 2080 Super now claims top honors—and there’s no $100 price premium if you buy direct from Nvidia.
There’s a bit more separation between the 2080 Super and the 2070 Super, because only the 2080 Super gets 15.5Gb/s GDDR6. Clock speeds have been pushed about as far as you’re likely to see. Sure, you can probably squeeze a few percent more performance out of the card via manual overclocking, but it’s definitely going to be a case of diminishing returns. The TDP has already jumped 35W compared to the 2080.

What exactly is an 'AI' PC?
AI, EVERYWHERE, all at once. That, in a nutshell, is what's happening to the computing industry. The PC, inevitably, is not immune. Later this summer, you'll be able to buy a machine that officially qualifies as an 'Al' PC, according to no lesser an authority than Microsoft. But you might be surprised at who's making it.
Intel Raptor Lake Core 19 Instability Problems
THE RACE BETWEEN AMD AND INTEL has heated up in the past few years as Ryzen processors have become increasingly competitive. The amount of headroom for overclocking has shrunk in response, and it seems motherboard vendors may have tweaked settings a bit too aggressively.
