In Red Dead Redemption 2 we started our testing at the highest possible in-game settings at 4K in the benchmark.  4K is very demanding in this game at the highest settings.  Even the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti is stressed. 

The ASUS ROG STRIX GeForce RTX 2080 Ti O11G GAMING is able to pull 40FPS average in the benchmark.  This is really not playable and shows even a factory overclocked RTX 2080 Ti cannot handle this game at 4K when the graphics settings are maxed out.  It looks like we’ll need next-gen cards to max this game out at 4K.  Overclocking the video card improved performance by 10% which is about right for our overclock.  Even with the overclocked performance it’s still not even breaking 45FPS average. 

One thing is certain though, the video card is a lot faster than what the GeForce RTX 2080 FE and Radeon RX 5700 XT can offer.  They are just nowhere near any level of gameplay at this level.  The ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 2080 Ti at its default performance is 28% faster than the GeForce RTX 2080 FE at this setting.

In the above graph we have dropped this game back to 1440p resolution but still, have the highest “Ultra” in-game settings enabled.  Backing off to 1440p has really helped performance a lot.  The ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 2080 Ti O11G GAMING is now playable at 1440p with the highest in-game settings pulling 60FPS.  Overclocking helps even more at 67FPS which is a 12% performance improvement. 

The performance on the ASUS RTX 2080 Ti is a lot better than the gameplay experience of the GeForce RTX 2080 FE and Radeon RX 5700 XT.  Here the ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 2080 Ti is 26% faster than the GeForce RTX 2080 FE.
