As you can see, the RTX 4080 has 42% fewer CUDA cores, which shows in the 4K performance during testing. Whilst the RTX 4080 doesn’t perform as well as the RTX 4090 in 4K gaming, it doesn’t mean this powerhouse of a GPU can’t handle 4K at all. You will still see an average of 78 fps across current AAA titles like Cyberpunk 2077, which was next to impossible upon the game’s launch. This shows how far this generation has come in terms of performance.
The RTX 4080 is excellent for gamers who want to enjoy the latest games with all the graphical bells and whistles enabled. It’s also a perfect option for those who are looking to invest in a card that will last for a few years and won’t need to be replaced anytime soon. If you’re in the market for a new high-powered gaming PC, then buying one with a NVIDIA RTX GeForce 4080 will be an excellent choice– it might just be the best decision you make this year when it comes to your Gaming PC.
