Nvidia’s RTX 2070 10% faster than GTX 1080 in Ashes of the Singularity benchmark

Nvidia’s entry-level RTX graphics card, the RTX 2070, has appeared on the Ashes of the Singularity benchmarking database. The xx70 nomenclature used to be Nvidia’s equivalent of a mid-range saloon, although with brand new ray tracing chops and a bewildering $599 Founders Edition price tag, the RTX 2070 now sits well above the GTX 1080. Nvidia’s RTX 2070 is set for launch only a few days from now, on October 17. This RTX-enabled GPU was announced back at Nvidia’s pre-Gamescom event in August, but has been the last to make it out the door with the RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti, at $799 and $1,199 respectively for the Founders Editions, the first to launch. The AotS benchmark, running at the Crazy 4K preset, shows scores in the upper forties for Nvidia’s latest graphics card, roughly averaging out to a 48.5fps score across all runs. That’s utilising DX12 and paired with one of Intel’s hexacore i7 8700K CPUs. The overall ‘score’ attached to the result is 4,700.
