Gaming, memory & power

GeForce RTX 5080

Best forA new high-end build balancing gaming performance and power

The 5080 uses substantially less power than the 4090 in the linked gaming tests, but it also delivers fewer native frames and has 16GB of memory instead of 24GB. Multi Frame Generation can make supported games look smoother; it does not erase that performance gap. The strongest case is a new high-end PC or a move from a much older card.

Best forA sensible 16GB alternative to the RTX 5070 when the price is right.

Compare the XT too: a small extra cost can buy a more substantial gaming upgrade.
