RTX 5080 Super leak?

Hmm. Repeat of 4080 4080 Super?

Criticism that original 4080 was a bad product followed by a 4080 Super that was generally considered a better release.

We just don't get that pull of the initial 4080 and turning it into a 4070ti bit.

And we should expect this trend to continue until Nvidia has any appreciable competition.

Honestly, watching people rage over and over at the best burger place in town for having the most expensive burgers and smaller portions when their competition is just serving up similar burgers and selling them for .99¢ less is just exasperating at this point.

A bit different, the big point of the 4080s was in part a way to cut msrp down from $1200->$1000 without ever officially cutting price of a product, I do not imagine this will be less than $999.

And it will have 24G of vram @ 32gbps one, for a more significant upgrade than 4080->4080s in that regard.

That could be needed because the 5070s will be 18GB making the 5080 at 16G a bit strange in the line up, this super could be a very clean one this time around (and was maybe the original plan but the yield on 3GB ddr7 was not ready in time)

.8GB 5050
12GB 5060 super
16GB 5060ti (let the 8GB just silently die)
18GB 5070s
24GB 5080

All card a bit faster, but mostly about the ram. The general feeling it should have been the original launch will even been stronger this time around.

Totally not surprised by a "Super" series.

I am skipping the 5000 series. Still holding out for a 4090 deal that statistically isn't going to happen.

the 5080 is already using the full die little room to grow, I would not expect to be significantly faster, a little bit faster memory, maybe a little bit clock on a little bit better process and some mini fix, if they push significantly more power they could get something.

But still 10752 core, even if they achieve an impressive ~10% faster for ~12% more power that would still be below the 4090.

The 4080 super was around just ~1% faster than the regular 4080 after all.

The vram upgrade is enough to justify the super series by itself, the 5070super will probably be pushed enough to reach the 9070, has it as the room on the die for it and a direct competitor to justify that push.

I mean an overclocked 5080 right now is like 5% slower than a 4090. I can see a 5080 super finally catching up to a 4090.

Since its going to be 400w. Yap heavily overclocked GPU and 32Gbps stock? Which you could probably get 3200+ mhz on the core and 34Gpbs on the memory.

It will sell well just because of that.

It was pretty sad that the whole next gen range launched, and the 4090 was still the second fastest card on the market.

I wouldn't count on that one quite yet.
Good chance when the 6000 cards launch. The 4090 will be the third fastest card around.
 
I was set on a 5080, but settled on a 9070XT at half the price because it too has 16GB VRAM. (This is on a new build, coming from a 1080Ti) I am happy with its performance, but in Flight Sim 2024 at ultra settings, it does complain about running out of VRAM. WTF!
Let's see what next year brings. I told myself saving that much this year might allow me to spend a little more next year or two.
24GB would be nice on the XX80 tier cards.
