Benchmarking the Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 Ti and Titan RTX in 2024 using ray tracing and path tracing, in games released during the 6 years since their initial launch.

When the RTX series was first announced in 2018, ray tracing was touted as the future of gaming. Like it or not, whether you can even tell the difference or not, RT has spread throughout the gaming landscape over the last 6 years. The best of those first generation GPUs, the RTX 2080 Ti and the Titan RTX, were the only ones really capable of showcasing RT at the time, and cost a small fortune for the privilege; are they still up to the task six years later?
