Upgrade question

Hello, so I have a MSI lap top with a GTX 1080 GPU and was thinking about either getting a second one or upgading to a RTX 2080.

I find the 1080 is fast enough for out door scenes with up to 5 characters and a combination of HDRI and spot lighting but for enclosed indoor lighting it dose slow down quite a bit.

I guess my question would be the cost vs performance of two 1080's or the one 1080 plus a 2080?

Thanks

    You mean getting a 1080 or 2080 in an eGPU enclosure? I'm not entirely sure you can get those to work with anything built into the laptop so you should verify that before you buy anything.

    A 2080 is substantially faster, in indoor scenes, over a 1080 due to RTX. Quantifying that is challenging as every scene is different in how much light reflecting is going on.
