GTX 1080 laptops used to be the most powerful ones on the market in the last 2 years. However, Nvidia GeForce RTX series of graphics cards for laptops have finally arrived and most gamers are interested in the high-end RTX 2080 graphics card. The card will power the best gaming laptops for a couple of years ahead.
GeForce RTX 2080 Features
Nvidia was ready to bring the mobile RTX 2080 chip to notebook machines starting at CES 2019. Similar to the PC version, the RTX 2080 also features NVIDIA Turing GPU architecture, 8GB of GDDR6 memory, new real-time ray tracing, and AI-enhanced graphics capabilities. They claimed that the laptops will be able to run ray-traced games at 60fps. The deep learning super sampling (DLSS) is another great feature of the new graphics card; Unlike traditional anti-aliasing techniques, it could improve visuals at higher resolutions without compromising the performance.
Apart from the normal RTX 2080 GPU, we also have an RTX 2080 Max-Q GPU which consumes less power and has a smaller form factor. Therefore, the Max-Q chip can fit in much smaller and thinner gaming laptops. As compared to the previous generation (GTX 1080 Max-Q), the RTX 2080 Max-Q has 20 percent more performance as well as 40 percent more efficiency.
We had a post comparing specs and performance between the RTX 2080 Max-Q and RTX 2080 standard version, check out that post for more information.
Nvidia released another edition called GeForce RTX 2080 Super Max-Q in April 2020. This becomes the most expensive top-of-the-line RTX mobile GPU for laptops as it significantly boosts performance and power efficiency.
The List of RTX 2080 Laptops
The release of RTX 2080 graphics card for laptops doesn’t spell the end of GTX 1080. The GTX 1080 laptops are still very capable machines and now you can even grab one at a much more affordable price.
The first RTX 2080 laptops are available starting January 2019. Many OEMs have joined the market like Acer, Asus, Dell, Gigabyte, HP, Lenovo Legion, MSI, Razer, Samsung, CyberPower PC, and Origin PC. Let’s check out the full list of all laptops powered by the new RTX 2080 GPU.

Comfort G says
Acer Predator 900 doesn’t have a 144hz 4K display. Those don’t exist yet on laptops.
Sam says
The 2080 on OMEN 17 is 150w instead of a max-q one. Thank you anyway for the amazing list!
