If Nvidia’s RTX 5090 was tricky to review, its 80-class offering is even more challenging. PC users have grown used to this tier of card outperforming the outgoing flagship, but let’s be clear – RTX 5080 is a slower card than the RTX 4090 while the new RTX 5090 is much, much faster. In many ways, you can think of the new 5080 as a 4080 Super Super. There’s a small but appreciated bump to performance against its predecessor – around 13 percent in my testing – and it’s delivered for the same price. And of course, you get the latest DLSS 4 feature set, including multi frame generation, which we’ll be looking at in this review. So, this is the best GPU you can buy at its price-point – but it’s also the only new GPU available at this price-point.
