by Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 5080 managed to score 32,701 points in Time Spy, which is about 10% lower than the score of the RTX 4090.
RTX 5080 disappoints in synthetic tests, more incredibly slower than RTX 4090 in volcan and opencl tests on Geekbench
If you think the RTX 5090 is not as impressive as we expected, then the RTX 5080 is here to disappoint you even further. In contrast to the first, the RTX 5080, although it wants to replace the RTX 4080, will not supposedly beat the RTX 4090. Usually the generation improvements by Nvidia are not enough to have the cards from the 80-class take over the 90-class. GPUs, but this time it may not happen.
We certainly need a number of solid game tests to confirm this, but the leaked synthetic benchmarks reveal the The true talent of the RTX 5080. We have just seen the latest RTX 5080 benchmarks on two platforms: Geekbench and 3DMark. Thanks to @olrak29_, who has seen the screenshot on the Baidu forums Unveiling the early benchmark of the RTX 5080 in Time Spy.
According to the screenshot, the GPU scored 32,701 pointswhich is noticeably lower than the score of the RTX 4090 36,318 points. This is a solid 10% Difference in performance, which is contrary to the generation improvements we had with the RTX 4080 compared to the RTX 3090 and RTX 3090 TI. It gets even worse when we look at the GPU Geekbench results.
Although the results of Geekbench are generally inaccurate, they are a good source to know the brutal power of GPUs. A user with a configuration including a Ryzen 7 9800x3D combined with GeForce RTX 5080 tested the GPU in both volcan and opencl tests. Although there are still a few benchmarks with the same GPU, we have achieved the best scores. The RTX 5080 scored in the Volkan test 281,746 points And about 278.138 points In OpenCl.
Compare this now with the RTX 4090 GPU when we use a similar configuration, using the Ryzen 7 9800x3D CPU. A recent result shows that the RTX 4090 is performing 365.013 points in volcan and 337,319 Points in OpenCL tests. This marks a huge one 23% Difference in volcan and 17.6% In OpenCL benchmarks between the RTX 5080 and RTX 4090.
NowThe RTX 5080 comes out as the victor compared to the RTX 4080, but the difference is not that great. The RTX 4080 with Ryzen 7 9800x3D setup supplies 259403 points in volcan and 254.007 Points in OpenCL tests. This provides an improvement of 8% and 9% compared to the RTX 4080, which does not look too good. However, let’s wait for more reliable benchmarks, especially gaming benchmarks, which will show us the true potential of the RTX 5080.
