Resource monitor suggesting a little over 18GB committed to BL4. Actual usage seems to average a lot lower at about 4.5.

I was going to hold off on this for a week or 2 until they release a few patches for bugs/performance improvements, but I am a big fan of Borderlands and I have next week off, so I know how this will play out 
. Performance reviews don't look great, but my monitor is 1440p, so I think I should be good with a RTX 4080s.

You'll be fine.

Well its not like you can use it til lvl 50
Obviously you'd have to turn some settings down, but depending on your rez I would think it'd be ok.
Have to say I'm very pleasantly surprised with this so far. Veteran of all Borderlands games and liking this one so far from a gameplay perspective.
Performance-wise, running at 1440p on a 9800X3D/4090 with 'Very High' settings but lowered volumetric cloud.
Was getting 78-80fps native res. Enabling DLSS Quality upped that to 100-110fps and enabling FG locked it at 144 (monitor refresh rate) and have to say I'm very impressed with the look and feeling of it even with FG enabled.

Extrapolate from my results above as a 4080S isn't that much slower than a 4090. Assuming you have a decent CPU, you'll be totally fine.

Performance been ok for me on a 9800cdx and 4080. Hovering around 80 fps but the cutscenes are really jarring at such a low fps!

Apart from technical issues, is the game good?
It is, I'm having a ball playing it, much, much better than BL3.
And it has zero technical issues for me.
