Questions and answers
How much video memory do NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q have?
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti: 6 GB GDDR5, 384-bit bus. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q: 8 GB GDDR6, 256-bit bus.
Which is faster: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q?
It depends on the task: rendering and compute: results disagree.
