It was debunked by Nvidia's Director of Technical Marketing: https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/9bejp0/hothardware_25_geeks_webcast_featuring_tom/, HH: Will NVLink combines frame buffers in game? If we consider that 2080TI is around 50% more expensive than 2080. This guy knows his stuff and also and is a SLI enthusiast. But remember you are running on 2 x PCIE x8 on Z370 or AM4 for now. that is not true, SLI works the same and is still bad according to tom peterson's interview. Not sure if they're running RTX or not. And on 4k resolution SLI will beat the single card. And can anyone provide me benchmarks related to these scenarios, that can be very helpful. And that nvlink now add up the amounts of vram and other benefits over the past regular SLI. 2x 8GB GPU will be seen as 16GB GPU).

First Scenario - If I run Shadow of Tomb Raider in highest/lowest preset on RTX 2080 TI in 1080p resolution and then I run same thing on 2 RTX 2080 TI in SLI, how much performance I'm gonna gain or lose. It's 80-100 usd on nvidias website man depending on country. The game will need to know there is latency to access that 2nd chunk of memory and it's not the same. Are you referring to the 20 series when you say this generation? By using our Services or clicking I agree, you agree to our use of cookies. The thing I'm looking for is that somewhere I heard on 1080p RTX 2080 TI will give more fps than SLI one. Press J to jump to the feed. TP: I think that sets a wrong expectation. A place for everything NVIDIA, come talk about news, drivers, rumors, GPUs, the industry, show-off your build and more. do you have the power supply/motherboard/case for an SLI setup? I know 2080 TI in SLI will be faster " - faster at ? So my question is this depends on applications or games means it will varry on my choice or there is generic thing, if this thing is there then this happens? That style of memory scaling will require app work. Tbh there is no real big increase in using SLI. which means you should not do SLI unless you are desperate. Getting 2x 2080Ti is completly out of question at least for me, even one I already think it is expensive, but if this graph is correct, with a bit more money getting 2x 2080 seems to be a WAYY better deal, Please share your thoughs regarding this, and also regarding nvlink if someone else have information. SLI must be specifically supported in the applications. Single 2080 Ti is slower, by far, then SLI 1080 Tis in games that support SLI and at high enough resolutions to not be CPU bottlenecked (4K or higher). how quickly will your SLI setup be outperformed by a single card solution? Second Scenario - If I run Shadow of Tomb Raider in highest/lowest preset on RTX 2080 TI in 4k resolution and then I run same thing on 2 RTX 2080 TI in SLI, how much performance I'm gonna gain or lose. And that nvlink now add up the amounts of vram and other benefits over the past regular SLI. I know 2080 TI in SLI will be faster but I want to ask that if we compare both in 1080p resolution and 4k resolution, lowest and highest preset of a particular game then which is faster. So no it does not double the vram https://youtu.be/YNnDRtZ_ODM?t=2569. I'm actually looking for 1080p & 4k benchmarks. " And that nvlink now add up the amounts of vram and other benefits over the past regular SLI. Yes the total amount of ram is going to be full with NVLink.

SLI(nvlink) 2080 vs 2080TI single. Using this graph as base, I was pretty happy with the overall performance, only dissapointed that I would feel that would be a better deal buying 2x 2080 instead of 1 2080TI if this nvlink really have all the benefits it were mencioned before such as adding up the RAM and working separatelly causing to have way less problems with compatibility in games. I will use the image below as reference it was posted here by another reddit user.
I know 2080 TI in SLI will be faster but I want to ask that if we compare both in 1080p resolution and 4k resolution, lowest and highest preset of a particular game then which is faster.

(e.g. Shadow of the Tomb Raider with a single RTX 2080 Ti. This Subreddit is community run and does not represent NVIDIA in any capacity unless specified. Discussion. If we consider that 2080TI is around 50% more expensive than 2080. 10 series has SLI and no NVLINK, but I thought 20 series was only NVLINK? So no, 2x8GB is still 8GB in SLI configuration. This subreddit is for general discussion of computers. the additional capabilities of nvlink have not been used this generation.
It's true you can set up the memory map to do that but it will be a terrible performance thing.
