Rtx 4080
Speaking of the base plate, the RTX 4080 version only makes contact with the GPU while an aluminum spreader contacts the memory chips, with the aid of thermal pads of course. Then over on the PCB there are fewer power deliver components, the much smaller GPU and just eight memory chips opposed to the dozen you’ll find on the 4090.

Benchmarks
First up we have Watch Dogs: Legion and at 1440p we are CPU limited with these higher end GPUs. Still the data is relevant for anyone with a 5800X3D or a CPU that’s slower. But for unrestrained GPU performance let’s move to 4K.
At 4K we get a much better idea of what the RTX 4080 is capable of. 110 fps on average meant it was 22% slower than the RTX 4090, but also 25% faster than the 6950 XT, 42% faster than the 3080 Ti and 57% faster than the 3080. That’s some pretty impressive generational improvements.
Rainbow Six Extraction isn’t as CPU limited at 1440p as what we saw with Watch Dogs: Legion and as a result the 4080 was 40% faster than the 6950 XT and 30% faster than the 3090 Ti. That said it was just 18% slower than the 4090, so let’s see if that margin grows at 4K.
As expected it does as here the 4080 was 20% slower than the 4090, though it did still manage an impressive 158 fps at 4K. That made it 45% faster than the 3080 Ti, 56% faster than the 3080 and 61% faster than the 6950 XT.
For testing Far Cry 6 we use actual in-game performance instead of the built-in benchmark tool. Unsurprisingly, the data is CPU limited at 1440p and as a result the 4080 was just 3% slower than the 4090 with 181 fps on average.
Moving to 4K shifts the primary performance limitation onto the GPU and now the 4080 is seen trailing the 4090 by a 21% margin with 130 fps on average. That also made it just 7% faster than the 6950 XT, but 29% faster than the 3080 Ti and 40% faster than the 3080.
Next we have Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and at 1440p the RTX 4080 was good for 161 fps which saw it trail the 4090 by a 12% margin, while beating the 6950 XT by a 12% margin, but let’s move to 4K to see how those margins change.
Even at 4K the RTX 4080 was just 14% slower than the 4090 and just 15% faster than the 6950 XT. The Radeon GPU is helped along by excellent support for Resizable BAR, so overall a disappointing result for the new GeForce GPU.
The GeForce RTX 4090 really impressed us in Hunt Showdown and while the 4080 isn’t as impressive, it’s still well ahead of previous generation parts, trailing the 4090 by a 22% margin but leading the 6950 XT by 34%, the 3080 Ti by 37% and the 3080 by a massive 58%.
Then we see that the 4K margins are much the same, here the 4080 was 24% slower than the 4090 with 121 fps on average, making it 29% faster than the 6950 XT and 44% faster than the 3080.
We’re seeing a clear pattern emerge. This time testing with The Outer Worlds at 1440p saw the 4080 just 21% slower than the 4090, but 22% faster than the 3090 Ti, 27% faster than the 3080 Ti, 34% faster than the 6950 XT, and a massive 46% faster than the 3080.
The margins remained the same at 4K though there are some odd changes. We see that the RTX 4080 was good for 119 fps making it 25% slower than the 4090, but just 13% faster than the 3090 Ti despite still beating the 3080 Ti by a 28% margin, so the 3090 Ti does a little better than you might expect.
Hitman 3 is a very CPU intensive game and the 5800X3D isn’t the fastest CPU here, not even close with the release of Zen 4 and Raptor Lake.
CPU limitations aren’t an issue at 4K however and here we see that the 4080 is the expected 22% slower than the 4090 with 142 fps on average. This did make it 26% faster than the 6950 XT and 69% faster than the RTX 3080.
The 5800X3D does perform well in Horizon Zero Dawn and despite that we still run into a hard CPU bottleneck with the new GeForce 40 series GPU as both the 4080 and 4090 were limited to just over 210 fps.
Jumping up to 4K removes CPU performance limitations and delivers the expected margins. As we’ve seen time and time again, the 4080 is a little over 20% slower than the 4090 but faster than the rest of the pack.
Next we have F1 2021 and at 1440p the 4080 was 16% slower than the 4090 with 206 fps, and that meant it was 34% faster than the 3090 Ti and a massive 48% faster than the 6950 XT.
Then at 4K we see predictable margins as now the 4080 is 25% slower than the 4090, and 52% faster than the 6950 XT. It was just the 4090 that was running into system limitations at the lower 1440p resolution.
Then at 4K we see predictable margins as now the 4080 is 25% slower than the 4090, and 52% faster than the 6950 XT. So really it was just the 4090 that was running into system limitations at the lower 1440p resolution.
Moving on to Cyberpunk 2077 we find that the 4080 was good for 128 fps on average with the 5800X3D pairing, which made it 12% slower than the 4090, and just 17% faster than the 6950 XT.
Increasing the resolution to 4K results in fairly typical margins based on what we’ve seen so far, the 4080 is now 23% slower than the 4090, but 33% faster than the 3080 Ti and almost 50% faster than the original 3080.
Dying Light 2 Stay Human isn’t very CPU demanding and as a result we’re not limited at 1440p, allowing the RTX 4080 to churn out 151 fps on average, resulting in a typical 21% deficit to the 4090.
That margin did grow slightly to 25% at 4K and interestingly the 4080 was just 11% faster than the 6950 XT, due to an unusually strong result for the Radeon GPU.
In Halo Infinite we are clearly running into a CPU bottleneck at 1440p as the RTX 4080 was just 6% slower than the 4090, but impressively still 42% faster than the 3090 Ti and 51% faster than the 6950 XT.
At 4K the RTX 4080 is now only 32% faster than the 3090 Ti which is still a large margin, but smaller than the 42% margin seen at 1440p.
In Shadow of the Tomb Raider at 1440p, the RTX 4080 rendered an impressive 206 fps, and that meant it was 13% slower than the 4090, but 35% faster than the 6950 XT.
Bumping up the resolution to 4K saw an average of 116 fps, though this did make the 4080 28% slower than the 4090, so that’s one of the bigger margins we’ve seen. It was also only 23% faster than the 3090 Ti and 33% faster than the 6950 XT.
NVIDIA RTX 4080
The RTX 4080 is exactly what I’d want from an RTX 3080 Ti successor.
- Significantly faster than the 3080 Ti
- Excellent ray tracing performance
- DLSS 3 offers great upscaling
- Cool under load
- Still pretty expensive at $1199
- RTX 4090 steals its shine
Surprisingly enough, the RTX 4080 Founders Edition we reviewed shares the exact same design as the 4090. They both take up three PCI-e slots, sport massive vapor chambers, and they retain the unique pass-through fan design from NVIDIA’s previous GPUs. I was expecting something a bit smaller, to be honest. At least the 4080 only needs three 8-pin PSU cables to function, whereas the 4090 demands four. (Both cards can also be powered by a single PCIe 5.0 PSU cable, but those power supplies are pretty rare at the moment.)
Devindra Hardawar/Engadget
The 4080’s power cables also hint at one of its major advantages: It has a 320-watt thermal design profile (TDP) and requires a 750W PSU, whereas the 4090 has a far more demanding 450W TDP. Unless you already have an 850W power supply, upgrading to the 4090 may involve getting a new unit and rewiring power throughout your entire system. These cards won’t always use their maximum power loads, but you’ll still need to be ready for the rare moments when they need more juice.
While it may look just like the 4090, the RTX 4080 is a dramatically different beast under the hood. It’s powered by 9,728 CUDA cores, 16GB of GDDR6X VRAM and offers a base clock speed of 2.21GHz (with boost speeds to 2.51GHz). The 4090, on the other hand, has 16,384 CUDA cores, slightly higher clock speeds and a whopping 24GB of VRAM. Compared to the 3080 Ti, the 4080 wins out with NVIDIA’s new Ada Lovelace architecture, significantly faster speeds and 4GB more VRAM. (The 3080 Ti technically has around 500 more CUDA cores, but they’re also inherently slower and less efficient than NVIDIA’s new platform.)
So what do these numbers mean in practice? The RTX 4080 scored around 3,500 fewer points in 3DMark’s TimeSpy Extreme benchmark compared to the 4090. But if that more powerful card didn’t exist, the 4080 would be the most capable GPU we’ve ever reviewed. Its TimeSpy Extreme score was about 50 percent higher than the 3080 Ti, and it reached a comfortable 130fps while playing Halo Infinite in 4K with all of its graphics settings maxed out. Seeing Cyberpunk 2077 hit 74fps in 4K with ultra ray tracing settings (and the help of DLSS 3) nearly brought a tear to my eye.

A word on DLSS 3: It’s NVIDIA’s latest AI solution that can take lower-quality imagery and upscale it to higher resolutions. But in addition to intelligently sharpening edges and upgrading textures, DLSS 3 can also inject interpolated frames to smooth out 4K gameplay. While I can occasionally spot issues with particularly low quality DLSS upscaling, I didn’t notice any unusual framerate hiccups while testing Cyberpunk and A Plague Tale: Requiem with the technology enabled.
The only real downside to the RTX 4080 is that I can’t help but compare it to the 4090. That same Cyberpunk ray tracing benchmark was almost twice as fast on the 4090, reaching an eye-watering 135 fps. It also hit a 40-fps-higher average framerate in the 3DMark Port Royal ray tracing benchmark. Still, these are the sorts of gains only the most dedicated gamers will notice, the exact market for the 4090. When it comes to actual 4K gameplay, even with ray tracing in demanding games like Control, I never felt held back by the RTX 4080.
Devindra Hardawar/Engadget
And if you’re looking for more performance, overclocking is always an option. I didn’t have a chance to do so myself, but the 4080’s thermal performance makes me think there’s plenty of room for pushing things harder. It never climbed beyond 61 celsius during my testing, around 10 degrees cooler than the 4090. That’s a testament to NVIDIA’s excellent cooling setup (and perhaps partially due to my office being slightly cooler this month).
The real question: Is it worth settling for the 4080 if there’s a chance you’ll actually be able to buy the 4090 for $1,599? At the moment, most online retailers are selling 4090 cards for well above $2,000. It sounds crazy to say it, but the $1,199 card seems like a steal with that gulf. But, of course, who knows how long you’ll be able to find the RTX 4080 at its launch price. It likely won’t be too long before it creeps towards the 4090’s higher tag.
And if paying more than $1,000 for a video card seems insane to you — and let’s be clear, it should — sit tight to see what NVIDIA’s future cards look like. We’re definitely expecting RTX 4070, 4060 and 4050 cards eventually, but the the question is when. (Also, what the heck will NVIDIA do with its planned $899 4080 GPU? Does that become the 4070?) AMD’s flagship RDNA 3 GPUs will launch below $1,000, and at the entry level, Intel’s new Arc GPUs are surprisingly compelling.
All in all, the RTX 4080 is exactly what I’d want from an RTX 3080 Ti successor. It’s faster and has plenty of new features to make it a demonstrable leap from the previous cards. I’m not saying you should be upgrading your 3080 anytime soon, but if you somehow stumble onto $1,199, I wouldn’t blame you for being tempted by the 4080.
Cons
- — High price without the halo performance of the 4090
- — Needs DLSS 3 to truly shine in gaming performance
- — AMD’s RDNA 3 could provide strong competition
- — Lingering concerns surrounding the 16-pin connector

The Nvidia RTX 4080 Super should be the final entry in Nvidia’s RTX 40-series Ada Lovelace GPUs, though there’s still room for a 4090 update perhaps (but unlikely). In terms of the Super models, it’s the least exciting from a performance standpoint. It makes up for that by slashing the base MSRP from $1,199 on the RTX 4080 down to $999 for the 4080 Super, putting it more or less into direct competition with AMD’s RX 7900 XTX. Considering the vastly inflated retail prices on the RTX 4090 these days, the 4080 Super now has to hold down the fort as the fastest Nvidia option that’s still within reach of gamers, competing with the best graphics cards currently available.
We opined back when the 40-series Super rumors first started circulating that we really hoped the 4080 Super 20GB would become a reality. That hope was in vain, for a variety of reasons — chiefly demand from the AI sector. With AD102-based graphics cards frequently selling at $2,000 and up these days, Nvidia has no reason to push out lower-priced consumer cards that use those same GPUs. The result is that RTX 4080 Super uses a fully enabled AD103 chip, with slightly higher memory clocks, and it gets a price cut to try to soften the blow.
Here’s the full rundown of the specifications for all the current generation Nvidia and AMD GPUs that have launched. Short of a surprise 4090 Super or similar reveal at GTC in a couple of months, this should mark the end of the RTX 40-series and RX 7000-series lineups.

By the numbers, the RTX 4080 Super has the same nominal GPU clocks as the RTX 4080 — «nominal» because, in practice, all the Nvidia 40-series GPUs boost well above the stated boost clocks. That means the only real change in compute comes from the extra four SMs (Streaming Multiprocessors), which is a 5.3% increase over the vanilla 4080. The VRAM also gets a small bump, from 22.4 Gbps on the 4080 to 23 Gbps on the 4080 Super — a 2.7% increase.
The TGP (Total Graphics Power) remains the same at 320W, and that means we can expect the reference clocked 4080 Super Founders Edition that we’re looking at today to offer less than a 5% improvement in performance compared to the 4080 Founders Edition.
The catch is that there are factory-overclocked RTX 4080 cards, as well as factory-overclocked RTX 4080 Super cards. Depending on how far the AIB (add-in board) partners push things, some of the existing 4080 OC models will already beat the reference 4080 Super in performance, while 4080 Super OC models might tack on another 5~10 percent in some cases — with higher power use, naturally.
That’s it as far as paper specs go: a small boost in performance, and a $200 price cut. It’s unexciting overall, unless you were in the market for an RTX 4080 and decided to hold off a bit to get the 4080 Super. Because saving $200 while getting slightly more performance is better.
The RTX 4080 Super officially launches today, on January 31, 2024. Nvidia normally allows reviews of base-MSRP models the day before reviews go live, but shipping delays caused a rescheduling of the review embargos. A cynic might say that it was also a way to have reviews of what will ultimately be a straightforward launch go live at the same time as retail availability, but hopefully, weather and shipping delays truly were the root cause.
