- The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 is priced at $1,000 and offers only minor upgrades over the RTX 4080 Super, featuring just 5% more cores and a 3% higher clock speed.
- Performance gains of the RTX 5080 are modest, showing average frame rates between 10 and 20 percent faster than the RTX 4080 and only 6% faster at 1440p in some games.
