Battlefield 1 (DX11)
Battlefield 1 returns from the 2017 benchmark suite, the 2017 benchmark suite with a bang as DICE brought gamers the long-awaited AAA World War 1 shooter a little over a year ago. With detailed maps, environmental effects, and pacy combat, Battlefield 1 provides a generally well-optimized yet demanding graphics workload. The next Battlefield game from DICE, Battlefield V, completes the nostalgia circuit with a return to World War 2, but more importantly for us, is one of the flagship titles for GeForce RTX real time ray tracing, although at this time it isn't ready.
We use the Ultra preset is used with no alterations. As these benchmarks are from single player mode, our rule of thumb with multiplayer performance still applies: multiplayer framerates generally dip to half our single player framerates. Battlefield 1 also supports HDR (HDR10, Dolby Vision).
| Battlefield 1 | 1920x1080 | 2560x1440 | 3840x2160 |

| 99th Percentile |  |

At this point, the RTX 2080 Ti is fast enough to touch the CPU bottleneck at 1080p, but it keeps its substantial lead at 4K. Nowadays, Battlefield 1 runs rather well on a gamut of cards and settings, and in optimized high-profile games like these, the 2080 in particular will need to make sure that the veteran 1080 Ti doesn't edge too close. So we see the Founders Edition specs are enough to firmly plant the 2080 Founders Edition faster than the 1080 Ti Founders Edition.
The outlying low 99th percentile reading for the 2080 Ti occurred on repeated testing, and we're looking into it further.

news flash: 2080 Ti is an enthusiast product.tamalero - Thursday, September 20, 2018 - link
news flash.. 2080TI is just part of a large part of a system. Unlike a flagship phone.. You cant game with only a 2080TI or a 2080. You need other parts.Your argument is retarded.
Be honest, you got cash in nvidia's stock? your family works for Nvidia?
PopinFRESH007 - Thursday, September 20, 2018 - link
what argument is that? no I don't have any nVidia stock and none of my family work for them. You sound envious of people who can afford to be early adopters.tamalero - Friday, September 21, 2018 - link
You're defending the almost 50% price hike with a "is an enthusiast product".Now that is a dumb excuse.
Nothing to do with being envious. A fool and his money are soon departed. So if you want to buy it.
Go ahead!.
For the majority of us its not worth to buy something which its "flagship" features arent even working or available for probably months to come, has only 30% average performance increase, for almost double the price..

I don't know anyone who has every paid for their phone outright. Everyone is on a lease/upgrade/Iphone forever plan.bji - Wednesday, September 19, 2018 - link
So you think that means they haven't paid full price for their phone? Or are you saying you don't understand how to buy a video card on a similar payment plan (hint -- it's called a credit card)?People have absolutely no sense of logic or really intelligence at all when it comes to evaluating technology prices. NONE. This forum, and pretty much every internet forum where predominantly inexperienced kids who have no clue how actual money works post (which is apparently all of them), is all the proof you need of that.

^^ This, 100% this. People who think that changing the structure of payment somehow magically changes the price of something (other than increasing it due to TVM) are amazingly ignorant.Nagorak - Thursday, September 20, 2018 - link
It doesn't change the price, however it certainly hides the price. A lot of people would not buy their expensive phone if it meant coughing up $800 all at once.Nagorak - Thursday, September 20, 2018 - link
Not a good example. A credit card probably has 20% per year interest rate. A phone contact usually bundles in the monthly payment on the phone at low or no interest rate.Qasar - Thursday, September 20, 2018 - link
the carriers here ( canada ) have been considering dropping the " subsidized phone " thing for a few years now.. IF they do.. i wonder how many people would NOT get a new phone every year.... specifically those get " have to " get the new iphone every year... i dont know any one that would pay that much for a phone each year, if they had to buy it outright from their own pocket....
