The first salvo of RTX 50 series GPU will arrive in January, with pricing starting at $549 for the RTX 5070 and topping out at an eye-watering $1,999 for the flagship RTX 5090. In between those are the $749 RTX 5070 Ti and $999 RTX 5080. Laptop variants of the desktop GPUs will follow in March, with pricing there starting at $1,299 for 5070-equipped PCs.

    My question is will the 5080 perform half as fast as the 5090. Or is it going to be like the 4080 vs 4090 again where the 4080 was like 80% the price for 60% the performance?

      You know it’s the latter… and that even those numbers are probably optimistic.

      I think that at higher resolutions (4k) there is gonna be a bit bigger difference than in gen 40 bcs of 256bit vs 384bit mem bussy in 4080 vs 4090 compared to 256bit vs 512bit in 5080 vs 5090.

      That memory throughput & bandwidth might not get such a big bump in the next gen or two.
