Depends on the power supply. A 750ti is a 55W TDP card so it can run off the slot power alone but a 2080 (8GB) is 215W TDP and some versions go up to more like 260W so you need a much beefier power supply that has pci-e power connectors (probably 2 should do). As far as the motherboard is concerned they both just go in a pci-e x16 slot.
