The OpenCL memory tests also easily put the RTX 2080 Ti with GDDR6 well in front of the RX Vega 64 and GTX 1080 Ti graphics cards.

With the LuxMark OpenCL tests is where the Radeon GPUs have historically done extremely well but in the case of the Luxball HDR scene, the RTX 2080 Ti is 26% faster than the Vega card and about double the speed of the GTX 1080 Ti.

The performance-per-Watt is also sharply better with the RTX 2080 Ti.

The ROCm Radeon OpenCL stack hung with the two other LuxMark scenes while compiling the OpenCL kernels, a problem we've experienced before. On the NVIDIA front, the RTX 2080 Ti still represents a huge performance increase over the GTX 1080 Ti Pascal card in raw performance and performance-per-Watt.
