The 3DMark Port Royal Ray Tracing Benchmark is going to be released to the public in January but a special event was held to kick off the software and see how which team could score the highest points. The Galax RTX 2080 Ti was used to run the benchmark and the results were unimpressive.
According to what we can see from the official numbers one of the cards running at 1935 MHz was able to get a score of 7724 points, which translates into 35.76 FPS. Remember that these benchmarks were run at 2560×1440 resolution and not 1080p. Ray tracing has a major impact on performance and we can see that here.
16 results were published using the Galax RTX 2080 Ti and the top of the line Intel 9900K processor. The topmost result was able to get 51 FPS and a score of 11069 points. This was the only entry that got more than 11000 points and it is worth mentioning that the Galax RTX 2080 Ti that was able to deliver this score was overclocked using liquid Nitrogen.
The core clock and memory clock was 2640MHz and 2088MHz respectively. This is an extreme overclock and not something that every user will be able to do, keeping in mind that liquid Nitrogen is an exotic cooling solution and that it is only used for setting records. The top results are as follows:
You can check out the topmost result below:
It is interesting to see that even the top of the line Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti was unable to hit 60 FPS even when it was extremely overclocked. This is another indication of why you should not get the RTX series and why I cannot recommend it without hesitation. We recently talked about why the RTX 2060 would not be worth it and here we have more proof of why that is the case.
Let us know what you think about the performance of the Galax RTX 2080 Ti in the 3DMark Port Royal Ray Tracing Benchmark.
