Question: is a rtx 2070 better than a 1080?
Answer: In short, the cards are pretty comparable, but the 2070 tends to perform slightly better in most scenarios. By the numbers, both cards have a slight leg up over the other in certain specifications and the Founders Editions don't do anything to close those gaps. The 1080 has 2,560 CUDA cores, while the 2070 has 2,304.
