NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 11GB
The Turing-based RTX 2080 Ti stands out with 11GB of VRAM and dedicated ray tracing cores, delivering a 18647 PassMark G3D score for early real-time ray tracing at 1440p. Its Founders Edition build quality and factory-sealed condition offer a premium, collectible design that was ahead of its time. This card is best for collectors or budget-conscious builders seeking 1080p high-refresh gaming from a flagship-class GPU, though its 250W TDP and limited AI performance show its age.
