A month ago, we analyzed the NVIDIA RTX 4090, Graphic card the most powerful in the world. In it, we made it clear that we have never tried anything like this and are very eager to analyze the NVIDIA RTX 4080, its “little sister”. Since then, a lot has happened, such as renaming.
Well, today, November 10, there are many landmarks for the next GeForce RTX 4080 from NVIDIA (formerly known as the RTX 4080 16GB) and the data is really interesting. And even more so when the RTX 4090 costs €2500 and is now on the rise.
Someone with access to a sample RTX 4080 and its drivers has done a number of tests and video games with it. The graphics card, with an official retail price of €1,469, has been tested in 3DMark Time Spy, Port Royal, and games such as Forza Horizon 5, Call of Duty Modern Warfare II, Cyberpunk 2077, Borderlands 3, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider. .
Also, The RTX 4080 sits halfway between the RTX 3090 Ti and RTX 4090., which is to be expected. With factory settings and passing the 3DMark Time Spy Extreme test (at 4K), the 4080 manages to provide 71% of the performance of the RTX 4090 while the RTX 3090 Ti remains at 55%.
It remains the second most powerful graphics card on the market.
Things change a bit with 3DMark Port Royal, another 3DMark classic, where the RTX 4080 scores 69% and the RTX 4090 scores 58% on the GeForce test.
Game tests included a slightly different story: the RTX 4080 performs closer to the RTX 4090 in almost every game. In Forza Horizon 5, the RTX 4090 is only 15.7% faster than the RTX 4080. And just 7.9% faster in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II.
Nonetheless, RTX 4090 beats RTX 4080 by 30 points in Shadow of the Tomb Raider (+39%) and Cyberpunk 2077 (+37%). This could be for many reasons, so we’ll stick with the middle ground between one and the other until official benchmarks come out.
Taking into account these figures, it can be assumed that NVIDIA RTX 4080 it will be much more powerful than the current 10GB RTX 3080. And, what is really important, a better card than the current last generation benchmark, the RTX 3090 Ti. It remains the second best GPU.
