Don't forget export restrictions. If Nvidia wants to take full advantage of the sizable Chinese market with the 5080, the card's performance has to slide in under the restrictions.

You can if you have decided you won't be upgrading and therefore won't have access to it
You can see it in many users posts. When they have latest greatest they love the tech and it is the best thing since sliced bread. Then when the time comes where they can no longer reach for the top they slowly change their tune

The new releases for "modern audiences" that utilize the new tech aren't even worth the time to 'acquire' on the dark internet seas, let alone play. Raster will always have a place if just to be able to replay an older classic at higher settings or with some modern mods.

The PCB is more in line with the 5090s PCB.

@Twinz That's an interesting thing to consider. How much the market restrictions will influence performance.

That moment when you spend 1.5k on a 4090, try frame gen and see your image quality has dropped
Becoming inevitable now though.

Just watched another UK retailer’s YT video… they announced some UK from prices haha.

nvidia have it on their site for the fe's, or are you referring to aibs?

Ah… they are just using the FE pricing then.
yeah as that's who nvidia sell them through.
Mhmm. If you're mainly playing older games then of course you're fine. But the future is ai and that means frame gen. Like it or lump it. Also if someone is buying a 4090 to play older games then I would question their logic there.Spoken like someone who doesn't actually play any games

Moore’s Law has to come to a crashing halt at some point. Generative AI was the next step in computational advancements, let’s just be thankful those advancements came to us mere mortals (gamers), regardless of one’s feelings on FG or Upscaling.
The naming of the memory is irrelevant, all that matters is the overall bandwidth and the 4090 has more.
The 5080's clock speeds are a few percent higher than the 4090, that's it.
Against that the 5080 has two-thirds of the CUDA cores (and associated SMs/ROPs/etc) of the 4090.
Of course we can only speculate and that's all I'm doing. My speculation is that the 5080 will not match the 4090.
Time will tell.
Only in terms of the extension cable connecting the PCIe connector, which may have given inspiration for the 5090 design.
In every way that matters, that WAS a 4090. It identified as such and it clearly had 24GB on a 384-bit bus.
I agree with you for the low-to-mid tier cards, for example potential 5070 buyers will probably lap up the "as fast as a 4090" garbage and I've already seen several so-called tech Youtubers fall into this trap.
I think most buyers forking out four figures for a high-end card are a bit more clued up, although maybe I'm giving people too much credit

You can't really blame people to want something for less, but it does illicit the popular meme:
Kid - "I want a card that renders FPS."
Mom - "But we have FPS at home."
...5070 with DLSS at full tilt.
I'm actually reminded of when the consoles first supported 4K but it was kind of "pseudo-4K" with dynamic resolution scaling depending on load etc.
The "PC master race" crown instantly start ridiculing them saying PC's can do "proper 4K" when, in reality, did anyone actually care?
So the point is taken

Why would you trade for a slower card with less VRAM?
