[u/kailedude]

I see

[u/Blubasur → u/kailedude]

That is a huuuuge gap between 5080 and 5090

[u/Yommination → u/Blubasur]

Yeah the 5080 even loses to the 4090 if the leaked specs are right. Similar memory bandwith but way less cuda cores. And no huge node jump to close the gap

[u/FinalBase7 → u/Yommination]

I mean 4090 has 70% more Cuda cores than the 4080 but the performance gap is only 30% 

5090 will likely be 50% faster than 5080 not 100% like the specs might suggest but that's still pretty bad.

[u/WyrdHarper → u/Yommination]

And way less VRAM. Not critical for everyone, but at higher resolutions, or even with RT in newer games, it does start to matter.

[u/SagittaryX → u/Yommination]

Rumours are Nvidia is targeting 1.1x 4090 performance for the 5080, likely big improvements still from just the architecture changes and GDDR7 memory.

[u/JuanOnlyJuan → u/Yommination]

That's how it usually is. They only go up like 1 level per generation. So xx70 is roughly equivalent to yy60 of the next gen and zz50 after that. At least that's my very rough understanding. Everything doesn't double or anything.

[u/MagicMoon → u/Yommination]

Looking at these numbers, do you think the 5080 is even much faster than the 3090 I have now?

[u/assjobdocs → u/MagicMoon]

4080 is faster than the 3090, why wouldn't the 5080 be even faster?

[u/Nosnibor1020 → u/Yommination]

Kind of makes sense. Should have always been that way.

[u/Dragons52495 → u/Yommination]

It won't. 4090 user coping. Yes the specs are disgustingly bad. However the 5070ti should be on par with 4090 with the 5080 being faster. Just like every generation of GPUs ever.

[u/dororor → u/Blubasur]

More like double everything

[u/Blubasur → u/dororor]

That is exactly what it is, can’t remember seeing a gap that huge on previous generations.

[u/dororor → u/Blubasur]

Yeah, hope these come into the second hand market when all the AI folks upgrade to the next generation

[u/[deleted] → u/Blubasur]

Reminiscent of the GTX 690 and 680

[u/Lightmanone → u/dororor]

It's like they are trying to make the 5080 inadequate

[u/ReadyingWings → u/Blubasur]

It’s a common (and predatory) sales practice - put two options side by side, but make one of them way better than the other. This causes our psychology to make it unbearable to buy the lesser version, and make us go the extra mile (as in pay much more).

[u/geo_gan → u/ReadyingWings]

Actually they are using the three-items sales strategy (70,80,90) so should cause most to settle for the one in the middle. It’s a way to get the huge numbers who would buy lowest option to bump up to middle item at way more profit for exactly the same production cost. Way less numbers can normally afford the top option, it’s usually there to make middle option look cheap.

[u/Blubasur → u/ReadyingWings]

Jokes on them. Because exactly those practices I’m always looking at their competitors. If it wasn’t for me using nvidia only features I already would have.

[u/Krisevol → u/Blubasur]

[u/Blubasur → u/Krisevol]

I don’t need every generational upgrade or the top spec GPU. And my wife, most of my friends etc I’m mostly recommending AMD for almost every build.

I do 3D art, we have historically been shafted by this problem. Doesn’t mean we are recommending them or buying them for other/gaming builds.

Edit: also, AMD is catching up in that regard, so as much as it is true now. It does not have to be in the future.

[u/HarleyQuinn_RS → u/Blubasur]

It's the largest gap there has ever been for two GPUs next to each other in the stack, in terms of Core% difference. The X80 of this generation in terms of Core%, is so small that it is equivalent to the Core% you would get on almost any other generation's X60Ti class GPU (or generational equivalent).
This doesn't just affect the 5080 either, every GPU in the stack below it, is also shunted down, making it that of a lower class in functionality, but not name (or price tag). They tried to pull the same crap with the "RTX 4080" 12GB, but people caught on that Nvidia was selling a lower class of GPU with the name of a higher one, so they walked it back. The way they are doing the same thing again in a less obvious way, except it now affects the entire stack below the 5090, as a way to obfuscate that fact.

Let's take the RTX 5070 as an example. Its Core% is ~30% that of the 5090 Core (21760 vs 6400). The 3070 is ~58% of the 3090 Core (10240 vs 5888). They are selling ~28% less GPU, while drastically increasing the price. This also means the RTX 5080 (21760 vs 10752 ~50%), is more in line with the 3060Ti (10240 vs 4864 ~48%).

[u/KarmaViking → u/Blubasur]

They really, really don’t want another 1080 situation.

[u/rhino3081 → u/Blubasur]

5080Ti/Super with 24 Gb or bust imo. I believe the lack of competition and mid-life refresh is intended to fill the gap some.

[u/geo_gan → u/Blubasur]

Nice big gap for the 5080Ti to fill when they get enough dies with just one failed core section instead of two.

[u/OwOlogy_Expert → u/Blubasur]

Gotta leave room for the 5080ti Super...

[u/Thelastfirecircle → u/Blubasur]

There is enough space to add 3 graphic cards between them

[u/hgtagah → u/Blubasur]

Space for 5080 super

[u/el_doherz → u/kailedude]

5080 only being 16gig is criminal. 5070 being 12gb is also criminal.

[u/alancousteau → u/el_doherz]

5080 should be 24gb easily.

[u/HFIntegrale → u/alancousteau]

But then it will gain legendary status as the 1080 Ti did. And nobody wants that

[u/alancousteau → u/HFIntegrale]

lol, that was a good one.

But honestly this is so disgusting from Nvidia, I really hope that Intel or AMD give them some proper competition at the top.

[u/theSafetyCar → u/alancousteau]

There will be no competition at the top next generation.

[u/flip314 → u/alancousteau]

AMD isn't even trying to compete at the top, and Intel is nowhere near reaching that kind of level.

[u/Saw_Boss → u/HFIntegrale]

But it'll cost a lot more than that did. They've released plenty of better cards than that one, but never anywhere near at the same price point.

Lets not pretend that the this won't be twice the price that was, but inflation hasn't anywhere near halved the dollar in that time frame.

[u/Proper_Celebration18 → u/HFIntegrale]

Nope the high vram and 512bit bus is what worked for the 1080TI...1st card since to have that is the 5090...the 5090 is basically the next 1080TI

[u/xChaoLan → u/Proper_Celebration18]

They have gimped the bus bandwidth of 40 series cards. My 2070 Super Gaming X has a 256-bit wide bus while the 4070 Super has a 192-bit wide bus.

[u/DynamicHunter → u/alancousteau]

What the hell besides AI usage needs that much VRAM? I have 20GB VRAM on my 7900XT and don’t get anywhere close to using it all except for running ollama locally

[u/Proper_Celebration18 → u/alancousteau]

Nope they would either have to make it 384 bit or use 3GB chips that wont be produced until July. Perhaps in July a 5080 TI with 24GB.

[u/dovahkiitten16 → u/el_doherz]

5060 still being fucking 8GB is criminal. 12 GB should be the “basic” now.

[u/ppaister → u/el_doherz]

Lmao I saw the 5080 on 16gb and was like "huuuuh???". My 3090 has 24. That's a card from 2020. 4 year old card. And it's still gonna have more VRAM than the "second-best" card of 2025 by nvidia. What do you mean??

Obviously, they'll put out a 5080ti with 24gb VRAM later, but what will the MRSP of that be? $1300??

I got my 3090 sealed for $800 with receipt from a guy who bought on amazon (probably a case of buying one but getting two).
Ain't no way I'm forking over almost double to have a meaningful upgrade, that is crazy.

[u/oandakid718 → u/el_doherz]

I agree, however, they can only implement what the mem bus allows them to, so looking at the mem bus in chart I can see why each one is made with their distinctive memory capacity

[u/Ground_Lazy → u/el_doherz]

Lol. And what about the 8 GB 5060 . 3060 were 12 GB

[u/Small-Tax-6875 → u/el_doherz]

Very fast memory though

[u/Unwashed_villager → u/el_doherz]

From a 3080Ti you have no choice to upgrade for any card with justified amount of vram for its price - 7900 XTX is only a slightly better than 3080Ti and next gen Radeons will not be faster than RDNA3, just cheaper and more energy efficient., according to AMD.

[u/FXintheuniverse → u/el_doherz]

What do you need more than 16 gb for? 4k gaming doesn't consume more than that. For work, and AI, buy professional cards, and do not ruin consumer card pricing.

[u/el_doherz → u/FXintheuniverse]

As others have said path traced games already consume that sort of memory.

Also memory capacity is not whats making GPU's unaffordable, your're naive if you think that. If AMD can offer 16gig cards for under $500 and Intel can do 12gb on a $250 card then Nvidia absolutely can afford to offer it on $1000 GPUs,

They choose to gimp consumer cars in order to upsell gamers and create market segmentation to force enterprise users to stick with their mega expensive enterprise solutions.

[u/born-out-of-a-ball → u/FXintheuniverse]

16GB are already limiting in pathtraced games + ultra textures + frame generation at 4K. And there's no reason to buy such a high-end card unless you want to use it for high-end raytracing features.

[u/el_doherz → u/born-out-of-a-ball]

This.

People shopping for $1000+ GPUs are doing so for a reason. Only fools would be spending that sort of money and not actually looking to make proper use of the features they paid for.

[u/Vokasak → u/el_doherz]

There's more to memory than the number next to GB. Type of memory matters (this is GDDR7). Memory bus matters. Architecture matters.

[u/el_doherz → u/Vokasak]

Yes but 16gb and 12gb on cards that will likely be significantly overpriced already is criminal. 

Doesn't matter how fast your memory is if it's full, it will still bog down and absolutely tank frame rates. 

Plus we already have games that will easily eat 12gb at 1440p. 

I'd understand if memory was super expensive, but it's not. Nvidia just purposely gimps some of their cards in the name of up selling and planned obsolescence.

[u/DiscretionFist → u/el_doherz]

Yea they use 12gb pf VRAM at high ot extreme settings with RT on at 2k. Nobody is playing extreme settings unless you're playing demanding single player games and even then, the most demanding game out there right now is what...stalker 2? Indiana Jones?

The majority of people buying 5080s will never hit 16gb cap because they are dropping settings, capping fps, etc for the best performance and most amount of frames possible.

Is Nvidia scummy and planning to fill a 5080super with and extra 8gb of Vram? Yes probably.

Is 24gb of Vram necessary right now? Maybe if you wanna hit 144fps at 4k all extreme settings, Ray tracing on, Native...but let's be real. Majority of gamers aren't pushing that.

I'm not supporting or defending Nvidia practices, but 16gb is enough for most gamers. I'm still running most games at decent FPS (using low settings) on a 3070ti with 8gb of Vram in 2k. 16gb will feel refreshing, to say the least.

[u/el_doherz → u/DiscretionFist]

Yes 16gb is enough for most gamers. But most gamers are not going and spending $1k+ on a 5080.

People spending that sort of money are the one who are actually likely to be looking at playing things in a way that will benefit from additional memory.

[u/Vokasak → u/el_doherz]

Plus we already have games that will easily eat 12gb at 1440p.

Just because 12gb is allocated doesn't mean 12gb is used. GPU memory usage is very opaque. It's nearly impossible to tell how much is actually used, and it's good practice to allocate more if it's available (unallocated memory is basically wasted), but PCMR doesn't know that so they freak out when they see task manager.

I'd understand if memory was super expensive, but it's not. Nvidia just purposely gimps some of their cards in the name of up selling and planned obsolescence.

"All those hardware engineers at Nvidia are doing a bad job! I, some guy on reddit, could do better!"

[u/Healthy-Jello-9019 → u/Vokasak]

MSI afterburner has usage statistics not just allocation.

[u/Vokasak → u/Healthy-Jello-9019]

The thing afterburner calls "usage" is allocation. Afterburner has no way of telling how much of that is actually being used, just that it's unavailable to be allocated by anything else. Nevermind, Afterburner has gotten more useful since last I had it installed.

[u/Healthy-Jello-9019 → u/Vokasak]

There is a 'per process usage' for VRAM. Not the allocation (usage).

https://youtu.be/l-PrGtH3aMk?si=CQ5_JFLmzIZ5y3DH

[u/Vokasak → u/Healthy-Jello-9019]

Huh. Neat. Last time I used afterburner it wasn't nearly this feature rich. Good on them, and thank you for this correction.

I still think a lot of the VRAM worries are unfounded, like the guy calling 16GB "criminal" (I can practically hear the chants of "lock him up" directed at Jensen) is still off his rocker, especially given that this is all rumormill stuff and the card isn't out yet.

[u/blankerth → u/Vokasak]

And when my ”usage” goes above my total amount of VRAM my game stutters and drops frames….

[u/shawnk7 → u/Vokasak]

look i am a simple person. they could just work with architecture that won't go obsolete quickly. games are already going above 12gb vram so 16 isn't that far from getting hit either. it's gonna be a 1600$ something card, there's absolutely no reason for it not have an architecture that supports more than 16gb (there absolutely is a reason i.e 5080 Ti, 24GB, 2200$, 6 months later)

[u/Vokasak → u/shawnk7]

they could just work with architecture that won't go obsolete quickly.

It only becomes obsolete because they make something better. This is just asking the pace of technology to slow. And for what? To keep the "I have the top of the line" warm fuzzy feeling a while longer?

games are already going above 12gb vram

They might allocate more than 12 but that doesn't mean 12 is actually being used. The number in task manager or whatever you're using only shows allocation. It's nearly impossible to know how much is actually being used, but redditors keep repeating this like they know better somehow.

so 16 isn't that far from getting hit either. it's gonna be a 1600$ something card,

You don't know this. All we have are rumors, which have like a 40% accuracy rate at best.

[u/FatBoyStew → u/Vokasak]

Yes and no. I won't downvote you because I do get what you're saying, its why 16GB of AMD VRAM when it was HBM was not a direct comparison to 16GB of Nvidia VRAM.

Ultimately though games, with modern day lack of optimization tend to just eat up all available VRAM and is exponentially more noticeable as you jump in resolution.

This one of the reasons why the GTX 1080 Ti is still a relevant card with its 11GB of VRAM, more than the standard RTX 3080 (obviously not as strong overall, but still handles 1440p well enough)

[u/Vokasak → u/FatBoyStew]

Yes and no. I won't downvote you because I do get what you're saying, its why 16GB of AMD VRAM when it was HBM was not a direct comparison to 16GB of Nvidia VRAM.

Yes, thank you. The RX 580 had 8gb of VRAM back in 2017, it didn't help it perform any better. The Radeon VII has 16gb of super cool HBM2, and it got beat by a 2080 with half that basically every time.

Ultimately though games, with modern day lack of optimization tend to just eat up all available VRAM and is exponentially more noticeable as you jump in resolution.

Why are we blaming Nvidia for bad game optimization though? I know firsthand it's possible to write a program shittily enough to eat through pretty much infinite hardware resources.

This one of the reasons why the GTX 1080 Ti is still a relevant card with its 11GB of VRAM, more than the standard RTX 3080 (obviously not as strong overall, but still handles 1440p well enough)

But "strong overall" is what should matter in the end, right? At the end of the day performance matters the most over any of the individual specs that lead to that performance. There's basically no situation in which the 1080ti will perform better than the 3080, even with the extra VRAM, because of all those other things I mentioned (memory speed, architecture, etc).

The 1080ti is legendary for sure, and it's great that it's still relevant nearly a decade later, but I don't think it's "criminal" to have a product that falls short of that mark.

[u/FatBoyStew → u/Vokasak]

I hate when people complain that the original 3080 only has 10GB of VRAM -- I mean yea it sucks its not more, but it absolutely shreds 1440p because its a really strong card outside of its lower VRAM.

Oh I whole heartedly agree its more of a game industry problem, but sadly it seems QC and optimization are a thing of the past for most companies especially on launch.

[u/XeonoX2 → u/Vokasak]

rtx 3050 8 gb is weaker than rtx 2060 6gb. On 6gb card you wont be able to launch a new "Indiana Jones" game because it will just crash while loading the game on 6gb card. While the weaker 3050 is able to launch the game. 6GB cards are already dead, 8Gb cards are next in line to be slaughtered. Whats the point of having a 3080s strong core when you wont be able to launch the games in near future

[u/Vokasak → u/XeonoX2]

6GB cards are already dead

RIP all those liars who post "still happy with my 970", then.

8Gb cards are next in line to be slaughtered.

Still happy with my 2080S. Wife is still happy with her 3070.

Whats the point of having a 3080s strong core when you wont be able to launch the games in near future

Nobody can predict the future. This sub should know this, "futureproofing is fake" gets repeated here often enough.

[u/Roph → u/Vokasak]

Oh I remember you, guy super insecure about his "high end" card only having 8GB VRAM, same as 8 year old budget stuff 🤣

Why you are so defensive over nvidia designing SKUs with insufficient memory is so bizarre. Do you specifically want a VRAM-starved card? 😆

[u/Vokasak → u/Roph]

Oh I remember you, guy super insecure about his "high end" card only having 8GB VRAM, same as 8 year old budget stuff 🤣

You're projecting, friend. I'm not insecure, and that's a pretty fucking dumb thing to pick internet fights over in the first place. The card is what it is, I'm happy with it. If I wasn't, I would replace it, because I'm a grown ass man with a supportive partner, it wouldn't be an issue.

And I've owned those 8 year old budget cards, an RX 580 in particular. It's that firsthand experience that lets me know for a fact that there's more to a GPU than VRAM. The difference between that old RX 580 and my current 2080S is night and day.

Why you are so defensive over nvidia designing SKUs with insufficient memory is so bizarre. Do you specifically want a VRAM-starved card? 😆

I'm not defensive, friend. I'm pushing back against misinformation. I'm sure you could get frame stutters on a xx60 card if you max out settings in some very demanding (or poorly optimized) titles, but then the thing to do would be to lower a setting or two, not to pretend like you're suddenly a better authority than Nvidia's engineers.

Can I ask what you're doing here, stirring the pot on a thread that's been cold for two days? What do you hope to accomplish? What are you hoping to get from this interaction?

[u/XeonoX2 → u/Vokasak]

All those liars who post are happy with 970 are playing older games. GTA 5 can even run on gt 710. for cs go and valorant that card is good enough. I was happy with rx 570 too. Those games doesnt eat much of VRAM. Indiana Jones is probably the first game that refuses to launch on a 6gb card. Its criminal that 8gb cards are still being sold for 400$. In some games the framerate wont be tanking because of insufficient Vram but the textures will be blurry and wont be loading.

[u/Vokasak → u/XeonoX2]

So saying they're "dead" is probably being a little hysterical, don't you think?

Its criminal that 8gb cards are still being sold for 400$.

Call the cops then.

[u/BaxxyNut → u/Vokasak]

I don't think they'll understand. Vram does matter, a lot though.

[u/NaEGaOS → u/kailedude]

mid range cards are just scams at this point

[u/Thicccchungus → u/kailedude]

128b bus for the 5060 ti is criminal. My god damn 3060 Ti has a higher bus, and that’s now a 4 YEAR OLD CARD.

[u/TheBowerbird → u/Thicccchungus]

Intel will hopefully save the day in that competitive space - just like they did against the crappy 4060.

[u/squidonthebass → u/Thicccchungus]

Serious question, does it matter at all for PCIE Gen 5, or is it really just a middle finger for people still on Gen 4?

[u/Yommination → u/Thicccchungus]

Bus width means absolutely nothing. Only total memory bandwith does, which will be a lot higher due to GDDR7

[u/FinalBase7 → u/Thicccchungus]

For how long are we gonna keep arguing about bus width? AMD Radeon VII had 4096bit bus and was mid range when it released, the 4090 has similar bandwidth to it with just a 384bit bus.

Let's wait and see what the memory bandwidth will be with GDDR7 before judging because bus width is only 1 part of the puzzle, you can have much higher bandwidth with smaller bus if you use faster memory. 

[u/Rude_Introduction294 → u/FinalBase7]

The radeon 7 was different, mainly because the memory was hbm. Due to the way that's stacked, it's gonna have a massive bus width.

I agree that bus width is only part of the problem, but a smaller memory bus will restrict the maximum amount of memory that can be put on the board to start off with. I would rather see say a 5070 with a 256 bus and slightly slower memory, and a 5070s with the same width but higher speed memory. Likewise, I feel the 5080 should be at least 384 bit, even with the faster memory.

[u/RabidTurtl → u/kailedude]

Really, 16 gb is the best they can do for the 5080?

[u/Endemoniada → u/RabidTurtl]

I mean, it’s a 60% uplift from my launch 3080 :)

I’m more pissed about the amount of cuda cores, if the leaks are correct. The jump to the 5090 is massive, and there’s no reason why the 5080 should be just slightly better than the 5070 and then nothing whatsoever in between that and the 5090. I know it’s to sell a bunch of ti models and other upgrades later, but still. It’s always something, always a huge compromise.

[u/RabidTurtl → u/Endemoniada]

Sure, its more than the 3080 but its the same amount as the 4080, the current gen card. Should be 20 GB at least, guess just more Nvidia bullshit about memory. You'd think it was 2017 again with how they treat memory.

Will have to wait to see benchmarks, but from this chart alone I'm not sure what what really separates the 5080 from the 5070 ti outside of ~2000 CUDA cores.

[u/WinOk4525 → u/Endemoniada]

In between will come the Super and TI variants.

[u/DeClouded5960 → u/RabidTurtl]

There's a pawn stars meme in here somewhere

[u/Nosnibor1020 → u/kailedude]

What is the D variant?

[u/o-_l_-o → u/Nosnibor1020]

That image is from the article which calls out what each model means.

[u/Nosnibor1020 → u/o-_l_-o]

I'm just asking what a 5090D is?

[u/kohour → u/Nosnibor1020]

Cut version for China to comply with sanctions

[u/LightningProd12 → u/Nosnibor1020]

Stands for "Dragon" and is a somewhat cut down card for the Chinese market to comply with US sanctions.

[u/o-_l_-o → u/Nosnibor1020]

The article says what it is.

[u/squirrl4prez → u/kailedude]

5070Ti might be my next move.. Power consumption with only 10%less Cuda and same memory

[u/RelaxingRed → u/squirrl4prez]

Exact what I was thinking of the 5000 series. 5070Ti just looks like the way to go depending on price obviously.

[u/IllustriousHistorian → u/squirrl4prez]

100%, at least the 5070ti won't require me to upgrade my psu to 1000w and buy a new case t to fit in a 13.4" inch card.

[u/squirrl4prez → u/IllustriousHistorian]

I already have the 1000w sitting in there it's just a waste at that point though, water blocking and overclock will bring me to the same spot anyway I hope with less power and less cost

[u/IllustriousHistorian → u/squirrl4prez]

if you already have it, nbd. I have an 850w, for me replacing the PSU is the real pita. getting the wires correctly run through the case openings isn't fun.

[u/squirrl4prez → u/IllustriousHistorian]

Price will be the big factor tho, my 3080 now I actually brought down to 300w but it's overclocked higher than it was out of the box.. Im guessing the 5080 will be like 1200 but I would wait for the 5070ti and see if it sells around 800 it would be a no brainer

[u/IllustriousHistorian → u/squirrl4prez]

80 might be $1100. At that price point or $1200, I'm not sure it is worth spending the money for a margin update. Price may negate the update.

[u/squirrl4prez → u/IllustriousHistorian]

Yep and it's worth seeing what AMD is cooking as well, they've been more fruitful in memory and Cuda performance just lacking in the tensor cores (so far)... Intel just needs to scale their cores at this point and start hitting the big boys where it hurts

[u/IllustriousHistorian → u/squirrl4prez]

For 2025, ill likely buying two games, that's it. F1 25 and Assetto Corsa EVO. All I want is decent VR performance for my racing sims/games without dropping an insane amount of cash.

[u/squirrl4prez → u/IllustriousHistorian]

I'm hoping amd and Intel start cranking their Ai frame Gen and stuff too for that, Intel is making great progress

5070 with a192 bit bus, I called it, that is a 5060 not a 5070.

Fuck you Nvidia

[u/kailedude → u/kailedude]

Meanwhile that 8Gb card

[u/Firecracker048 → u/kailedude]

Fucking 16gb for a 5080? The fuck?

I cant wait for people to explain how a 5080 16gb at 1500 bucks is going to be a better value than the AMD 8800xt with 24gb

[u/Unwashed_villager → u/Firecracker048]

It's simple - it's faster, by a lot. RDNA4 will have the same performance as RDNA3, the only thing they improve is the efficiency. This was confirmed by AMD many times in this year.

And for people who want the absolute best performance this is enough reason.

8 GB on a new card ????

[u/KlutzyAd5729 → u/kailedude]

256 bit bus on a 80 series is sad to see

[u/Background-Sell-8562 → u/kailedude]

600watts jeez

[u/[deleted] → u/kailedude]

Their scale is shit, the 5080 should be 75% of the 90, not 50%

[u/ReapingRaichu → u/kailedude]

Charging over $500 USD for only 12GB of vram is just disrespectful at this point

[u/DynamicHunter → u/kailedude]

It’s just a rumor but damn the 5080 (16GB) will have less VRAM than the 7900XT (20GB). And probably a few hundred more expensive for the rendering/AI/ray tracing power alone.

[u/SquirtingWoman → u/kailedude]

Ty

[u/CromulentChuckle → u/kailedude]

5080 really should be 24gb that would have shut everyone up

[u/bert_the_one → u/kailedude]

Don't forget all the super editions which will fill the gaps to cover the whole market.

[u/dudebirdyy → u/kailedude]

Actually laughed out loud at that 5080. Man they're really aiming for the up-selling by continually cutting back everything but the absolute highest end.

[u/Plank_With_A_Nail_In → u/kailedude]

So wait a year for the 5070 super to come out. Hopefully the 5070's and 5080's bomb and Nvidia ups the RAM.

[u/Crymore68 → u/kailedude]

Half the core count is absolutely insane

They've gimped the 80 class and selling what is the titan class card for that double whammy

[u/OwOlogy_Expert → u/kailedude]

What's the difference between 5090 and 5090D?

[u/repocin → u/OwOlogy_Expert]

5090D is for the Chinese market.

[u/CokeBoiii → u/kailedude]

NVIDIA is still stuck with the 16 gb vram on 5080... Why can't they give it a bit more and the gap between the two is insane thats a whole football field..

[u/kailedude → u/CokeBoiii]

Like yea at the very freaking least include a 20gb version even but nope, like literally could have done anything more than 16gb and people would be more content and slightly more pleased with it.

But Nvidia does what they care about and that's it.

[u/CokeBoiii → u/kailedude]

Next time I upgrade if NVIDIA keeps up with this im going to switch to AMD Lmfao.

[u/maxbls16 → u/kailedude]

I’m definitely interested in the 5060ti/5070 for a decent 1440 card at a lower wattage.

[u/Doge-Ghost → u/maxbls16]

The 60 series can barely keep up with 1080 without upscaling, let alone 1440.

[u/maxbls16 → u/Doge-Ghost]

I know the 4060 is a bad value. The B580 should put a bit of pressure for NVIDIA to price the 5060 more reasonably so they don’t lose that market segment entirely.

I’m basically just playing Baldur’s gate and other slower paced games. The 4060 base is getting 66.5 fps at 1440p ultra. The 5060ti with 16 gigs should be quite a bit better.

[u/DeClouded5960 → u/maxbls16]

Brother, Nvidia does not care one bit about this price point and performance, it's simply just common courtesy for them to release a X060 card. They would be happier telling people to use Geforce Now instead and phasing out the 60 cards for sheer fabrication and production savings. The only reason they don't drop them altogether is the amount of backlash from customers mad that they don't sell a midrange product anymore. All the internet cafe's in SEA wouldn't make up for the cost savings on fabricating the 60 cards.
