same performance as 3090, 5% better than 4070s, and 16% better than 6800xt? I didn't know the market was that bad. Guess I'll stick with my 6800xt for a few more years

Interesting. First time seeing the 5080s available like this. The Super cards must be around the corner.

Almost bit, but with the Ti and Super likely coming soon, and no price drop on these, I can wait.

i am an unashamed AMD fanboy but that is just incorrect.

with driver maturity it's beating the 5070ti (4080) in titles but not the 5080, especially overclocked variants

There's no current fix for 30% fan problem, correct? Even on MSI Afterburner?
Not that I'm aware of - but I haven't really been looking more recently after getting the 5080 FE.

i have the pny oc from bestbuy, will likely be a wash between the two. FE will beat a non OC variant. both are top tier builds

as someone who had a 3090ti then just bit on the 5080, if you don't need the vram then the 5080 is basically the first card that will feel like an upgrade.

my 3090ti is now moved into my vr/sim rig and still going strong

The high-end models have mostly stayed in stock, but the budget ones have been scalped into oblivion.

With a stock tracker, you could have snagged a 5080 FE without much trouble, and the 5090 FEs have been popping in and out of stock more often over the past couple of weeks.
that is like...the opposite of reality lol. The lower end cards sat on the shelves because they were overpriced and underdelivered. The 5080/90 have blinked in and out of stock since launch except for some AIBs charging $3-400+ over the FE models

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank MagicLight86

The Supers are coming soon and getting a VRAM boost. I think Nvidia has shifted their tiers down an entire level meaning the 5070/12GB is actually more like a 5060 and the 5080 more like a 5070, and currently no card in their lineup spec wise that fits what a 5080 should be. If you think about it that way these cards are completely overpriced ATM until they make some changes. A 5080 w/ 24GB is the bare minimum to be called a 5080 in this generation. Running out of VRAM playing 4K on a "5070" is unacceptable IMO. Avoid the 5070 definitely, 5080/16GB is at least a good card but just a bit overpriced.

Is it worth the extra 450 for the 4GB of RAM? I know everyone recommends 16, but thats almost double the price.
