We’ve benched the 1080Ti vs the Titan V and the Titan V is nowhere near 2x faster at training than the 1080Ti as suggested in that graph. We observed a 30% to 40% speedup during our benchmarking:

This is consistent with the 32% increase in FP32 flops from 11.3TFlops for the 1080Ti to 15TFlops for the Titan V. Additional speedups can be explained by the increase in memory bandwidth for HBM2 and the mixed precision fused multiply adds provided by the TensorCores.
Thus, given the quoted 13Tflop numbers for the 2080Ti, I would expect the 2080Ti to present something more like a 15-20% speedup over the 1080Ti. So 2080Ti is less bang for your buck. But benchmarking is the only way to tell what’s better on a FLOPS/$ basis.
