I haven't kept up with GPUs since a long time ago. I remember reading that even though Quadro GPUs were for heavy workstation loads, it still didn't compare to consumer GPUs when used for playing games.
How would this Quadro RTX compare to a Titan GTX 1080 Ti for games with standard rendering techniques?

Different focus. Gaming GPUs are tweaked for speed. Workstation GPUs are tweaked for precision. Some other considerations like compatibility, thermal/power efficiency, and duty cycles also factor in.
This was borne out more obviously ~10 years back when you could soft-mod some nvidia gaming GPUs to be quadros, turning a $200 gaming GPU into a $600 workstation card just by melting a hardware fuse. Today, the cards are probably too complicated to allow for that, even if you do find a way of tricking the drivers.
