The Test
For the launch of the RTX 2080 Super, NVIDIA has rolled out a new set of drivers to enable the card: 431.56. These drivers don’t offer any performance improvements over the 431.15 drivers in our games, so the results are fully comparable.
Meanwhile, I've gone ahead and tossed in the Radeon RX 5700 XT in to our graphs. While it's aimed at a distinctly lower market with its $399 price tag, it has the potential to be a very strong spoiler here, especially for 1440p gaming.

the argument, seems to be ray tracing above all else... nvidia has it, amd doesnt, so why buy amd ?i personally.. dont care about ray tracing, as the games i play currently, dont have it, and i dont see any games i want to to play in the future, having it as well, and the fact, that the rtx series, is priced way out of my price range

Buying GPU which is a little loud is and keep it for 1-2 years is not exactly super pleasing especially in room with somebody else. I'd pay $100 extra only to not hear loud GPU.D. Lister - Saturday, August 3, 2019 - link
@DillholeMcRibSo you have decided to pay the AMD tax from your ears, instead of the Nvidia tax from your pocket. Fair enough. Enjoy your fewer features and driver bugs. :P

Any chance in seeing an RTX enabled comparison between the various card levels? https://bigbootytube.xxx
