NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 is a high-end desktop graphics card based on the AD103 chip using the Ada Lovelace architecture. The 4080 offers 9,728 cores and 16 GB GDDR6X graphics memory with a 256-bit memory bus and clocked at 22.4 Gbits. The card offers a very good ray tracing performance thanks to the 76 dedicated ray tracing cores. For AI calculations (and DLSS 3 in games), the RTX 4080 has 304 Tensor cores.

Performance

The gaming performance is well-suited for 4k60 gaming in maximum detail settings and 2K gaming with higher frame rates. Even ray tracing effects can be used with DLSS in most games. Compared to the competition, the RTX 4080 is on par with the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT, with a noticeable advantage when raytracing is used.

Power consumption

The AD103 chip is manufactured in the modern 5nm process at TSMC (4N with EUV) and specified with a TGP (Total Graphics Power) of 320 Watts (compared to the 450 Watts of the RTX 4090). Nvidia is recommending a 750-watt power supply for the RTX 4080.
