Obviously not, because :
1. It's expensive, even think it's as flagship product and compared with previous gen flagship
2. Nvidia strongly emphasize their Ray tracing, DLSS and AI/ML which IMO don't have correlation with mining at all
3. There aren't any real benchmark, so we can't even say whether RTX 2080 is good GPU or not
4. GPU Mining isn't profitable at this moment, unless you have cheap electricity
Besides, Nvidia/AMD don't care about cryptocurrency mining since unlike gaming, no one have idea how long the trend (whether it's profitable/worth for newcomer) will last.
Topic: what do you think of nvidia rtx 2080 series, good for mining? (Read 247 times)
We can expect price drop when nvidia runs out of 10series gpu stock.
Rtx 2080 series is not good for mining because of its price. The best of them the RTX 2080 ti is priced over 1000 dollars and this is not a good price for a card that will be used to mine.
I have also said this in other threads but I want to repeat here as it is really important for people who want to start mining, and especially for people with 0.02-0.03 electricity cost.
You can now with the price of the RTX 2080 ti build a miner with 6 Rx series cards because their price have dropped a lot in ebay. This is a better option for a mining rig rather than going with RTX 2080 ti.

I expected that, simply not worth.
silly idea
mining is unprofitable. so it will be not worth, even if it does 100mh. difficulty is rising, and prices are going down. It's just not intelligent to buy GPU's for mining.

Did not see any reference to mining, only mention non-crypto features i.e. ray tracing in real time and AI. Any thought? For me it is not ideal card for cryptomining at all.

here is a quick overview https://1stminingrig.com/nvidia-rtx-2080-ti-available-for-preorder-now/, although is just speculation.. waiting for the real tests
