In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti are noticeably better than the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB.
The RX 5700 XT has a 255 MHz higher core clock speed than the RTX 2080 Ti, but the RTX 2080 Ti has 112 more Texture Mapping Units than the RX 5700 XT. As a result, the RTX 2080 Ti exhibits a 110.4 GTexel/s better Texture Fill Rate than the RX 5700 XT. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.
The RX 5700 XT has a 255 MHz higher core clock speed than the RTX 2080 Ti, but the RTX 2080 Ti has 24 more Render Output Units than the RX 5700 XT. As a result, the RTX 2080 Ti exhibits a 16.1 GPixel/s better Pixel Fill Rate than the RX 5700 XT. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.
The RX 5700 XT was released less than a year after the RTX 2080 Ti, and so they are likely to have similar driver support for optimizing performance when running the latest games.
Both GPUs exhibit very powerful performance, so it probably isn't worth upgrading from one to the other, as both are capable of running even the most demanding games at the highest settings.
The RTX 2080 Ti has 3072 MB more video memory than the RX 5700 XT, so is likely to be much better at displaying game textures at higher resolutions. This is supported by the fact that the RTX 2080 Ti also has superior memory performance overall.
The RTX 2080 Ti has 168 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the RX 5700 XT, which means that the memory performance of the RTX 2080 Ti is massively better than the RX 5700 XT.
The Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB has 2560 Shader Processing Units and the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti has 4352. However, the actual shader performance of the RX 5700 XT is 3170 and the actual shader performance of the RTX 2080 Ti is 7116. The RTX 2080 Ti having 3946 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the RTX 2080 Ti delivers a massively smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the RX 5700 XT.
The RX 5700 XT transistor size technology is 5 nm (nanometers) smaller than the RTX 2080 Ti. This means that the RX 5700 XT is expected to run very slightly cooler and achieve higher clock frequencies than the RTX 2080 Ti.
The Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB requires 225 Watts to run and the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti requires 260 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 600 Watts for the RX 5700 XT and a PSU with at least 650 Watts for the RTX 2080 Ti. The RTX 2080 Ti requires 35 Watts more than the RX 5700 XT to run. The difference is significant enough that the RTX 2080 Ti may have a slight adverse affect on your yearly electricity bills in comparison to the RX 5700 XT.

| Mini Review | Overview The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB is an Enthusiast gaming Graphics Card based on the first (1.0) Revision of the RDNA Architecture. Architecture The Navi 10 XL GPU offers support for GDDR6 Memory, DirectX 12.0, Vulkan 1.0, and OpenGL 4.5. This variant of the Navi 10 XL GPU features 40 Compute Units activated, offering 2560 Shader Processing Units, 160 TMUs and 64 ROPs. The GPU features a 1605 MHz base clock speed and up to 1905 MHz with boost clock, making it an estimated 15% faster than a Radeon RX Vega 64. This puts its predicted performance roughly in line with the GeForce RTX 2080. GPU The Central Unit is clocked at 1605 MHz, rising to 1905 MHz with boost clock enabled. Memory: Speed The GPU is equipped with high-speed GDDR6 and accesses the Frame Buffer through a 256-bit memory interface, providing total memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s. Memory: Frame Buffer The GPU can fill up a Memory Pool of up to 8GB. Under most circumstances, this only proves useful in certain 3D Games whose Settings Require Large Amounts of Memory. However,the GPU itself is aimed for 4K Gaming, In some limited scenarios, 8GB might be a bottleneck and Performance could be better were the Frame Buffer larger, however this would only be an issue in the most demanding games. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 225W, it requires at least a 600W PSU with one available 8+6-pin connector. Performance The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB competes with GeForce RTX 2070 8GB, which is available for $599. Specs currently available suggest the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB performance should be in the same region as the GeForce RTX 2070. System Suggestions The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 3840 x2160 (4K). For the most demanding AAA games it should be ideally suited to 4K. We recommend a Very Strong Processor and at least 16GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. | Overview GeForce RTX 2080 Ti is the top RTX 20 Series graphics card and considered an Enthusiast graphics card based on the Turing architecture.
