I use the 13 to 1 for my work laptop as well, works good!
It's closer to 2x a 3070 for 2x the price
And 0 performance/price ratio 😢
So a 2x of a GPU from 3 years ago... for double the price. XDDDDD
@@arghpee It's about the same for the whole 40 series. 4070S vs the 3060,
4070TiS vs 3060Ti.
Oddly, the 4060Ti is about 2x a 3050 but "only" a 1.6x price hike. The 3050 was already grossly overpriced, so it's really not good.
but now u can get a 3070 used for a quarter of the price for about half the performance, nothwithstanding vram limited situations
right on i ahve rtx 3070 FE and i will b buying ti super @@coryray8436
$1k is ridiculous for the performance we see in the most up to date titles.
i totally get your point, but I think the recent titles for 4k max settings cant be handled by anything. even a 4090 needs DLSS to keep a solid 60fps on some titles, and it is literally the fastest gpu we have. I think its more of a "these games are just fucking bonkers" and less of a "a 4080 super is weak and slow"
@@KellerFkinRyan Well 2160P is for the newbies that don't know any better, that's why most informed higher end gamers go 1440P high hz including ultrawide. If you go 2160P you will be buying the top end GPU every generation, and towards the end of that generation be struggling for FPS.
@@Battleneter Yep, it's another marketing BS, just like fram gen!... More pizels better... Ooooooh... Xcept that never mind a $1000 card, not even a $2000 card can actually drive those pixels!
Game engines and tech (path tracing, etc) are outpacing tech releases. DLSS helps but many new games are slamming CPUs harder than GPUs and if you’re CPU limited, DLSS doesn’t matter
We need frame Gen to be a standard option and to keep improving its flaws
agreed. it shoudl be $299!
Their 2x performance increase is certainly nothing but a play on words for using framegen. Most consumers will not know this and therefore think yay great value.
Recent FSR/DLSS frame gen mods with tweaks for the 30 series also go a long way to countering that 2x claim :P
That's why Nvidia kept DLSS 3.0 off the 3000 series (even though I think they could have updated it for 3000) so it makes the 4000 series look much stronger than they are@@Battleneter
@@genx156 FSR frame gen is done in software, Nvidia frame gen is done via the Tensor cores. Nvidia effectively "claim" the 30 series Tensor cores are too slow for Frame Gen,. While I am suspicious that's BS, you should not spread potential misinformation.
I just upgraded from 1080 Ti to 4080 16gb for $920 USD brand new equivalent in Australia. To me it is worth it for sure.
No, you guys keep thinking the typical consumer takes everything written on the box or promos as the truth. Ppl are doing their research and if they're not interested in tech details, they ask their techie friends. The proof? Several 4000 series cards have not sold well at all. Also, the 4080S msrp is $200 lower than the 4080s so if sales were so good they would have set it at like $1,299. Stop spreading nonsense about how ppl don't care and will just keep buying. Ever consider they are even buying bc there's really only 1 other competitor on the market? Its not like shopping for a TV dude
"Skip it" generation.
To pay 43% more money over the $700 3080 10GB to get a 50% uplift just doesn't make sense.
Soon this kind of performance will be available for ~$700 with the 5070 and then this will make sense where for the same $700 people will get a ~50% performance uplift.
The $1000 price tag for an 80-class card is just absurd that Nvidia is pushing more and more with each generation. 1080 was $600, 2080 and 3080 were $700.
I am assuming you are unaware 30 series was the last series manufactured on Samsung fab facility and Nvidia has now shifted to TSMC who charge more. Forget about getting a $700 80 series card. Consumers will get adapted to it. Yes 5070 will match 4080 at $600 but 5070 will be launched mid next year.
Tbh it's always good to skip a gen upgrading gen to gen is usually not worth it.
Stupid to upgrade every gen
Will it make sense then? Wouldn't it be a little to late? To wait from 2020 to 2025, 5 years for 50% improvement for the same money? That kind of an improvement should be generational, not every two generations.
@@pinakmiku4999 I am assuming that you have no idea about chip prices and chip sizes.
Search in Google silicon calculator and you will know that a chip for such a card like 3080 costs $70 and for the 4080 costs $120. Yes, TSMC is more expensive but the chip itself is so cheap that this doesn't have much impact on the overall price. And also you don't know that the 4080's chip is 40% smaller than the 3080's chip.
Stop fooling yourself and stop excusing corporations - it's just stupid.
Problem is game devs are poorly optimized their games. (I dont know if they have any incentives from GPU vendors). -Jensen buy more to save more.
We are using 3-4x more GPU power for 1.5x graphic quality. Remember how RDR2 was released on 2018 and the best GPU we had was 1080ti/2080ti. I really dont see any recently released games look 3-4x better than RDR2.
Devs being lazy.
RDR2 Doesn't have any sort of ray tracing or any of the demanding UE5 features that a lot of the current gen performance demanding games are being built with. Rockstar is just great at optimizing (for consoles at least) and UE5 needs more work
@@amartinez97That's the point. Even with all the bells & whistles built in UE5, Rockstar Advanced Game Engine still somehow looks as good from a 6-year-old title.
And RAGE was only made because EA bought Criterion which had RenderWare (GTA 3).
So RAGE itself is as old as the 360 era.
Imagine having bought a 3080 10GB and now getting bottlenecked in 1440p.
I called it years ago, for a reason the GTX1080Ti has 11GB of VRAM and for a long time was a 1440p card. Recently it's now 1080p because of the lack of GPU horsepower.
Meanwhile the 3080Ti is entry level 4K.
They're both excellent 4K cards. Just turn settings down to avoid being bottlenecked.
What bottleneck are you talking about ?
@@saricubra2867Nah entry level 4K is the 4070ti Super.
@@yves1926VRAM capacity bottlenecked in certain games because 10gbs is not enough.
20 series: forced ray tracing on consumers even though only poorly implemented in a couple of games. Saved by the start of crypto mining.
30 series : better ray tracing performance, more games support it. Cypto mining and chip shortage lead to stupid scalping pricing.
40 series: nvidia is now the scalper, but no crypto mining to save them.
See one of the comments above... 4080 Supers are OoS everywhere and are only found by third parties selling for $1,500 and up. Scalpers are scalping on TOP of nVIDIA.
@@s1rb1untly As far as I know, the price of the RTX 4080 Super card is high because Nvidia themself is limiting the supply to graphics card retailers. They are trying to gauge how much users are willing to pay for their products after the disastrous sales of the non-Super RTX 40 series.
@@wwk279not many. How many users will pay for a 700+ dollar card. Very few.
Very dumb move by nvid
They are the same price right 134 dollar difference now from the 7900 xtx I got the 4080 super
You know what's nuts? In 2014 the _entry_ level GPU would run you about $100 bucks. That would get you 720P/High in most games, and 1080P/High in a ton of games that were incredibly popular like Skyrim, Mass Effect 2 and 3, Deus Ex: Human Revolution etc etc, though they were obviously 1-6 years old at that point. A high end card would run you $350-$700 and would net you 4K 30 in pretty much everything. Then in 2017 we had an entry level of $230, but this was really more midrange as opposed to entry level, and you could easily get 1080P/High 60FPS+ in just about everything on the market, with both the 580 8GB and 6GB 1060 often getting 1440P/High 60FPS, so we had a big resolution bump from entry level 720P and 60FPS became almost standard for a huge part of the player base who had been relegated to 720P or 900P if they wanted 60 frames per second along with medium graphics settings. At the high end we of course had the $500 1080 ($700 for it's first two months on the market at which point sales dried up, Nvidia knew there was a problem with Vega coming out so the 1080Ti was on the way while the 1080 received an almost immediate $200 price drop). Now we had 4K/Medium-High 30-70 FPS on the market for $500 bucks, with some pretty darn modern graphics tricks, and 4K/High to Ultra 60 FPS+ (not that many people had 4K 60hz+ displays at the time, but they existed, so...) for $719.99, along with incredible 1080P and 1440P/high-ultra crazy tight frame time high fps gaming. This was incredible. let's jump forward 6.5 years this time instead of three.
1440P cards are now running people...$1000 USD? Seriously? People are buying the 4080 Super with the expectations of playing at 1440P? That's awful. The max common gaming resolution is...the same as it was 10 years ago, frame rates have pretty much doubled there though, at least with what people expect, but instead of the $700 780Ti it's the $1600 4090. Instead of the $500 780 for Ultra 1440P gaming it's the $1000 4080. No resolution improvements so yeah, I would hope there was a substantial FPS jump over the course of 10 years along with much better graphics as a whole. Except I'd expect it for the same price. Less if we were not taking inflation into account.
The worst part is that with the increase in popularity of PC gaming over the last 10 years one would think that the economy of scale would have helped keep prices down, but because of home mining (which became very popular in 2014 oddly enough) and the margins it afforded, PC gamers, the vast, vast majority of whom have never mined a coin on Nicehash, never mind set up a bunch of mining rigs, are being forced to pay far higher prices because miners did. Both companies (Nvidia and AMD) lied to investors and now they have to try to prove it really was gamers paying the inflated prices by keeping the prices stupid high. Sure, you can still get a great prebuilt HP with a 7800XT for $1000, but good luck building one with a current gen CPU. And no, not everyone wants to buy a b450 to flash the bios, put a 5800X3D in etc to build a PC with a 7800X to see if they can squeeze into the $1000 area. Unfortunately motherboard prices for Zen 4 are still atrocious, coming in higher than Intel boards which is certainly a change and contrary to popular belief, I am still seeing people leave PC gaming for consoles. Not because they want to, but because they can't afford PC's that will play the games they want the way they want for what they consider a reasonable amount of money.
The 4080 Super (Or 4080) would have been fine had it been released at $999.99 and *DROPPED* in price from there after the first few months, or even the first year, but this is just ugly at this juncture. It would be a lot less frustrating if the 3080's all had 16GB of VRAM as people who had previously been considered _high-end_ gamers had a reasonable $700-$800 upgrade path this generation but we didn't. Not from Nvidia, and not from AMD. Nvidia is making less 80 class cards than I have ever seen and they are still having a hard time selling them. The few people in retail I've talked to said they received a minuscule amount of 4080 Supers, which would explain why both Newegg and Amazon don't have any under $1100 atm, with NewEgg bundling them with 7900X3D's for $1399.99-$1484.98. I understand that the demand for the 4090 would seemingly push demand for the 4080/Super higher, but I am also pretty sure that the low number of units shipped is also a pretty large factor. If that's only pushing models sold by NewEgg and Amazon (not third parties) to $1100-$1300 for custom cards, with the way their algorithms work, they still can't be selling all that fantastic. Lol, I've never rooted for a company I own shares in to do shitty before, but I really can't wait for the AI craze to settle down. I'm sure Google, Meta, Microsoft and a few other large players will be just fine, but once the literal thousands upon thousands of AI upstarts start to fall off I'm sure demand will fall accordingly.
At that point what happens though? Will gamers be expected to make up for the lost margins again? That didn't work all that well this gen, 4070 Supers and 4070 Ti Supers are already selling for below MSRP (like $10-$30 bucks via instant savings/rebates, nothing substantial or official from Nvidia mind you) I'd be hard pressed to believe either AMD or Nvidia would think that gamers would, as it seems they showed that they were not willing to, or were unable to this generation. At the same time, if AMD doesn't have a high end offering, topping out at, let's say the 5070 Ultra Ti Super Mega GT level, will Nvidia even bother with 80 class cards at $1200 bucks if they are not going to sell? Or do they basically paper launch them, only produce a couple of thousand for each major market, using the rest of their silicon for 5090's and the smaller dies they can still hold 60%+ margins on after the card is made? Once again leaving everyone who was previously in that $700-$800 area with nothing worth buying as I assume the regular 5070 will Be around $800, probably come in 15% faster than the current 4070 Super, and essentially be a Super Ti side grade.
Ahh well, I suppose all we can do is wait at this point. I have a $2K budget for next gen so _hopefully_ it won't effect me, but if the 5090 comes in at $2200 I'm not touching it. I'm also not spending $1000 on 4080 Super levels of performance. I'll buy a used 7900XTX or 4090 if that's the case. It'd be great if everyone went that route, but then Nvidia would probably just delay the launch until Q4 2025 because my goodness are they stubborn, and with the size of the war chest I'm sure they have sitting in Jensen's leather jacket closet, they can certainly afford it.
The Rx 6800/XT and 7800XT is still a good 1440p card for ultra settings some only high to ultra tho and the 6700XT/50XT and 7700XT is a really good entry level 1440p card on Nvidia you have the....uhh 3080 and 4070? But all in all you can still buy a midrange GPU for 1440p
That's called price goes up to make the gpu's. Same as fuel ,food etc . Prices increase and that's how it works .
@@justinwalker5237 It's also called margins going from 23% to 60%+. Have you looked at their investor notes? Considering your response I am going to assume the answer is _"No."_ I do mention inflation in the silly rant novel I wrote, and stated that $999.99 at release would have been acceptable _(to me)_ with prices dropping or going up based on demand. Nvidia *HOLDS BACK* units, cuts production of models etc to artificially keep prices higher than demand would normally allow. With AMD not even attempting to compete, instead, following Market Leader Monopolistic practices which should not be allowed under US law, instead of being fined 3 or 4 billion USD, we look the other way. That's a problem. A problem that most likely would not exist had Obama not signed the bill allowing corporations to donate as much money as they would like to PACs and receive tax credits for donating to a non-profit without repercussions. You and I? We can only get credit for $2300 or so. Nvidia? They can get tax breaks in the hundreds of millions.
So sorry, my friend, it runs a lot deeper than _"It's more expensive to make the cards now so the price goes up."_ A lot, lot deeper.
@@justinwalker5237 that's not really hiw it works. The only thing that forces a price to increase is an increase in labor cost to produce that good or service. Most items do not see 50%+ labor cost increases every 10 years lol. In capitalism, most price increases are voluntary margin increases. Then, they have to eventually pay they labor more because when enough people raise margins, labor (who is also the customers) may also receive a pay increase. But yeah, most things tend to get cheaper over time to produce as you get BETTER at making them, as most resources are actually quite abundant.
I bought my 1070 at release in Europe for 500$.
I like your tests. Thus I watch em. But I maybe wanna advice you one thing, even if the Nvidia at least "test sessions" are kind of over the way I see it. I also watch ~other tests... which are just gameplay GPU performances (at least some of them), but the here and the advice is. In most of them, I notice the use some sort of different Direct Hardware Access Software offered by namely instead of DX11 or DX12 (am not sure, which one this game offers, if not both), the other testers chose the Vulcan option on 1080p (and possibly the others) and that allows the GPUs to Hit on 1080p (and obviously the high end ones) to hit 200+ FPS, which I think is more realistic representation of 1080p FPS for a "light" (for modern times at least) game on high, or decent grade GPU with the rest of the appropriate components.
using FG to highlight "x performance increase" should be against consumer laws, pretty sure in the UK this would breach UK consumer law because its not actually improving performance, if you took this to the ASA they would probs slap nvidia hard on that marketing. even nvidia are resorting to FG to sell there new GPUs, lets imagine for one second that the 3000 series had FG, nvidia wouldnt be able to claim such claims on the 4000 series and make them look appealing to buyers. its cummy af and should be illegal
And additionally not all games offer Frame Generation. They should at least call it "up to 2x RTX 3080 ti" with an footnote, that it only applies to games with FG enabled.
lol only if you’re okay with AMD getting in legal trouble for marketing AFMF, the worst frame gen iteration, as a performance improvement
B- b- but Ayymd.. every, single, time 😂 @@canopylions
We've reached the fourth day of the 4080Super's release. As some of us predicted (well, as I predicted), the 4080 Super has basically gone OOS at retailers and is being scalped by third party sellers starting at around $1500. So much for its MSRP.
Here in Germany it is still available, more like 1150€ though. Still cheaper than the 4080 before the super release.
keep wishing. this card is available at the ridiculous 1k jewbust if you actually want it . this would be a retarded investment for a scalper period.
@@bencio22 And still below MSRP when you include tax.
You can get one with little effort. I was able to purchase 4 of them without hassle, you just have to keep checking.

I made the jump from 3080 to 4080 super I can finally play cyberpunk on my 4K monitor with high frame rate. Worth it.

Both of you stop using macs! 😅
@@DKTD23 the school hands out work laptops. At least it's not a Chromebook lol
Same here in Germany. The whole school runs on windows, everything, even the servers. But some idiot in the department of education decided that all the teachers get macbooks. but no MS office license with them because that's too expensive. Nothing but problems, many of the older colleagues just left the macbooks in their boxes and put them in the cupboard at home.
Would you mind sharing what your settings in nvidia control panel are for these tests? Or if you have them anywhere in a link 🙏 love the benchmarks as usual
I think nVidia mistook double the performance for double the price :D
The best performance jump is when I upgraded my Rx 580 to RX 7800 XT.
GTX 970 to 1080ti was nice as well for me lol
R9 270x to 1080 ti
GTX 1070 to RTX 5000/RX 8000(assuming it could be RTX 5070/RX 8700 XT) will definitely be my best one when it happens.
1050ti to 2080ti
Did the same, from RX 580 8gb to RX 7900 XTX. Honestly, my mind is pleased but I don't really know why I updated since I played Stardew Valley and a bit of Mass Effect since I got 7900 xtx and my old RX 580 was doing just great with those games. Future proofing I guess
Imagine having a $1000+ gpu that can't even do normal fps graphics without gimmics. 😅
7900xtx 😊
Can I ask since I have a 4080 super. In avatar 1440 ultra it says ur using no upscaling but the only my results match ur 1/1 is if I use biased upscaling ultra quality if I disable that I lose 6-10 fps but if I change from biased to fixed ultra quality I hit near 100fps.
Difference between fixed (using native res when upscaling) vs biased which uses ur native res and in addition tries to aim for 4k.
Hey, you need to test lossless scaling frame generation, it works with any game, video or emulator
Daniel, please use Dark Reader extension 🙏🥴
The real problem with most of current titles not hitting 60fps+ at 4K is due to Ray Tracing/Path Tracing, or because they are CPU bottlenecked like Spider-Man, Hogwarts Legacy, etc. But most Rasterized games can definitely run above 60fps at 4K on a 4080.
DLSS & FG were created to allow players to get/feel like it's 60fps+ in RT/PT games but even with that it can be too demanding.
We'll have to wait and see what Blackwell with a brand new architecture and then Vera Rubin will bring to the table, but as of now even a 4090 would need 2-3x performance to hit 60fps+ at Native 4K on Cyberpunk 2077 with Path Tracing... 😬
The thing is that RT is the only selling point of Nvidia at this point, AMD offers much better value for rasterized performance
@@Bazylchuk_UA For sure! The 7900 XTX at $1000 is a much better deal for Rasterization than the 4090 at $1600 but that's just the way it is! Let's hope RDNA 5 will be more competitive...
Great content, as usual
Currently on a 3080 12gb myself so your video was interesting considering I am willing to upgrade. but not necessarily for desktop gaming (I have a 4k 120hz OLED TV) but rather for PCVR as the card shows its limits there so if the 50% uplift would materialize in VR as well then I am sold.
are you planning to get into VR at some point and do similar comparison exercises? that would be so helpful for me and certainly some of your followers
thanks in advance
I have been playing VR on 3080 10 GB for a few months, and upgraded to 4080 a month ago. Performance increase is noticeable. But i got mine factory refurbished for 660 USD, so the price didn't affect me. If you can get similar deal i would say go for it if you want an upgrade right now. 3080 12 Gb (and 10 GB too) are still pretty great cards, also you can get some stutters in heavy VR games if you won't turn down resolution on a headset while playing on high. 4080 allows to have clearer image on ultra in 90% of games.
@Tsukareda This was helpful. Thanks!
New video idea, what computers, laptops and old gamers can play games and videos on what tvs and monitors?
Still rocking my EVGA 2080ti I grabbed for $400 in '22. I tend to wait until I can more than double my performance in similar price ranges for an upgrade. Is there anything reasonable in sight? New or used? Never purchased a brand new card outside of my 660ti way back when. I'm still team green.. somehow.. but I primarily look for stability and raster perf.
Nope, to double a 2080 Ti you would need a 4080/super or 7900xtx. Maybe once the XTX comes down to $800 that would be a decent deal.
3090/4070ti comes close but prolly a 4080 super will double
I personally will wait for the 50 series. Not only with Frame generation but any new tech they probably put into DLSS 4.0. Im still on AM4 so might have to jump to AM5 as well if the 50 series uses PCIE 5.0
Just fyi, pcie 5.0 will make no difference at all in performance, even if you buy a 5090 (as long as it has all 16 PCIe 4.0 lanes available).
I'll try using the 5090 with the 5800x3D, should be fine for a while for my needs.
A platform upgraded may be needed at some point for additional CPU performance, but can wait.
@@lorsch.I have a 5800X3D as well. I fully expect it to bottleneck a 5090. I think we'll need Zen5 to really let it run free.
Great video and definitely better for 3080 owners!
I upgraded from a 3060 to 4080s, although at the moment my CPU needs to still be upgraded from i7 7700 to 78000x3d to fully play at 4k, at the moment playing at 1080p ultra settings at 75hz with vsync, I have a gsync 4k tv but with framegen there is a bit of shimmer, enabling vsync through nvidia panel and so on does alleviate that but there is too much customisation per game, I rather have one monitor for gaming, 1440p 144hz
I think game customisations with monitor synchronisation...soo many things to consider
I agree. These corporations are ridiculous with these claims

thanks for the video. I'm currently on the 3080 12gb. Your video help me to make the decision to keep using it without upgrading to the 4080s. the only viable upgrade would be 4090 at the moment.
Stupid to upgrade every gen
Unless you need 4k144 I'd stick with your 3080 12GB , it's still plenty enough (apart from lacking VRAM) .
Nonsense. The 4090 gets an easy ride. It’s even worse value, 60% more expensive than a 4080 for 30% more performance
Awesome content Daniel Owen!! 🏆👍
Daniel, I have a question! ~ 21:50 you can see the comparison of FG On / FG Off for Rogue City. Why is the overall PC latency higher with FG off? Somehow, this doesn't make sense to me.

Very informative and thorough as usual Daniel. I've been trying to decide between a 4080 super and a 7900 xtx but I think I'll just keep my 3080 Ftw3 for a little longer. I'm running a 1440p ultrawide and haven't had any issues at all playing modern titles, even with the 10gb version. I'll be ready for a 5080 though, or maybe a Battlemage if Intel maintains their current trajectory.
About 4 years ago I was was looking for an upgrade, but stayed off the GPU marked entirely from 2020 to 2023 due to the scalper/crypto era and kept running my old beast - the GTX 980 ti until I got an RTX 3070 for 450 bucks in August 2023. Then a 3080 and finally the 3080 ti for about 650 bucks a month ago. The 980 ti I bought new for roughly 750 dollars in 2015 (in Norway we pay 25% tax on everything) and that's the most I'm willing to pay for a high end enthusiast card with a xx80 ti label on it. It took "only" 3 years for the pre-used prices to go back to normal prices (disregarding inflation, obviously).
I don't know why Alan Wake 2 is used as a gold measure. It is all grey scale. It is so dark how can you make out detail.
by having a monitor with a high contrast ratio and an accurate eotf / gamma curve. makes a difference.
best part about owning a 3080 that I bought used for 500 6 months ago is..... I can straight up skip the 40 series and not deal with scalpers. Everyone should just buy last years tech used for half the price... Most of the games I play are fine at 1440p above 100 fps without RT.
It's not available in all countries. This term everyone does not apply to everyone.
At 120fps is one using gsync for screen tearing, or is the benchmarks with screen tearing? Just wondering on the smoothness of gameplay? Is it just then a monitor at 144hz or 120hz required without vsync enabled to get the best gpu to monitor synchronisation?
He mentioned before that his monitor is gsync but the video capture card shows screen tearing in video. If you want to see the smoothness of the game focus on the 1% lows and the frame-time graph

Same situation happened with the rtx 3080 being 2x faster than the rtx 2080. Which was BS.
Looks like jensen needs to learn counting again.
The 40 series with the Super refresh included was the consumer's opportunity to let NVIDIA know that we will not stand for them becoming the scalpers. We should have let the entire series rot on the shelves so they would get the message for the 50 series but people are their own worst enemies.
Perfectly summed it up. At this point you can't even blame Nvidia anymore, it's just the people being people, being stupid.
The consumer bought all the rtx40 cards by the hundreds of thousands, sorry your little boycott went nowhere. 1 in 10 gamers already had an rtx40 card before this refresh. Cope harder
4080 super is only 2 fps better than the normal 4080 and it's called 'super' lol. Also, card at 999 usd is way overpriced xx80 card should be $699

@@Amzyy that's the price you want it too be. The 4080 super wouldn't even be able to be kept in stock 800 dollars. Cards cost more than they used too. Some is inflation some is increased manufacturing costs and of course some is greed but not as much of it is greed as you think.
will there be testing of 4080 super vs 4070 ti super?
Not everyone uses 60fps. I just upgraded from a 10GB 3080 to a 4080 and it's a great upgrade. 2560x1440@120Hz It's awesome to revisit old titles.

what softwear is he using to measure fps and allat
I had the 3080 10GB and made the jump to the 4070 Ti because of the extra VRAM. The additional VRAM made a difference in MSFS because I'm easily hitting over 11GB in most scenarios. Granted, Microsoft is coming up with a memory optimization update which might fix this issue, but for me, the upgrade made sense. Also the FG mod on the 3080 worked OK as long as your baseline FPS are good. If you're only getting 20FPS or hitting the VRAM limit you're going to get sutters with our without FG.

this is a very useful video, better than Gamers Nexus who seem to focus on 1080p and 1440p and just skim over 4k RT tests which is what us enthusists who buy the cards and who are actaully invested in these videos are running.
I upgraded from a RTX 3080 10 GB to a RTX 4080 Founders Edition and the performance improvement on my i5-13600KF was massive and very noticeable at 1440p. Instead of getting 60-90 fps, I am now getting a locked 120 fps in the majority of games I play and with Frame Generation and the framerate cap off I see many games hitting the 158 fps cap of my 165 Hz display. I can't wait to replace my ageing 27" 165 Hz IPS monitor with a 360 Hz Dell QD-OILED monitor sometime this year, once the new models are released here in the UK, but the upgrade is more for the OLED goodness so I can say goodbye finally to IPS glow and weak blacks plus have HDR as opposed to the higher refresh rate. That said the high refresh will allow games with Frame Gen to exceed the current 158 fps limit on my current display which for me is a bonus.
It’s a dope upgrade. People just tend to hate because they haven’t done it 🤣🤣🤣 enjoy your extra performance and gaming too. I just upgraded from a 3080 10gb which I love and it’s a beast at 1440p to a 7900xtx sapphire nitro+ 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

@@ZackSNetwork But anything is better than an RX6500XT.
A lot of people saying wait for 50 series cards. But when they come out, u think they will be 'better' values? I really doubt it that anything would be under $1000
Even if they release the 5080 for $1200 again, if it does at least 20% better than a 4080 super(which is very likely, if not more) you'd have about the same card performance for cost ratio. Though they may finally make the 80 series get 24gb vram, which would help the card in tthe long run.
However, 5080 will for sure have dlss 4.0 stuff(4080 could get as well, but suffer from the generational jump of improvements, like from 20 to 30 series), plus whatever new thing they may introduce that may or may not be on the 40 series.
Plus, its less than a year away. Holding onto the 4080 super money, and getting 200 more by then shouldnt be an issue if 1k for a gpu isnt an issue now. And this is just factoring the same tiers. 5070 would be roughly 4080 performance for significantly less(maybe 5070 runs at $700), and still have benefits of the 50 series.
The biggest issue is if they will release a 5080 for the same price range as a 4080 or not. They'll likely use the 4080's $1200 retail to market the 5080's "value." They sure as hell hint at it when compairing the 4070 super to the 3090.
Tldr, if the price for performance is roughly the same, and if one can wait, the 50 series could provide more value. Could even cost less to get the same 4080 performance by waiting and getting the 5070.

2x performance gain sounds like a bold claim. I think a lot of this comes down to if you already have a 3080 or not when buying. Im coming from a 1650 ti (or something like that, cant remember the exact name) and as a new computer would anyway set me back a lot of money I went for the 4080 super. If I already had the 3080 I wouldnt even be considering upgrading. I doubt a lot of ppl have that kind of disposable cash to buy a new gen graphics card as an upgrade when ever a new card come out, Id wait at least 2 generations before even considering it because its so expensive. Im very happy with my 4080 super, its stupid expensive but I do really appreciate the kind of graphic fidelity it can deliver
I think 50xx being 2x the 30xx series is generous. Looking at the 40xx vs. my 1080, I can "only" expect to get about double the performance now at 4K vs. what I get with my 1080. An interesting thing I keep seeing with the few 1080 benchmark videos I can find is they seem to get lower performance with seemingly faster CPUs than I do. I tend to run without any SSxx or AA, so this is perhaps the difference. The point remains that for me at least, based on all the data I can collate, a 4080 Super in most situations will yield 2x the performance I see with my 1080 at 4K.
If the 50xx would yield 2x the 30xx performance, well... I'm definitely waiting, as that would be 4x the performance, but alas, I don't think this will happen. I think it will be 2.5 to 3x faster. As it is now, the 4090 seems to get bottlenecked by even the fastest CPU, and then depending upon which games you run, even the 4080 Super gets CPU limited (certainly at 1440 or below).
I think we're starting to hit a raw performance ceiling more generally with current architecture. I would love to be wrong, but we are currently already seeing this with CPUs. I think we're not far off with GPUs now, if you consider the 4090 already shows signs of this.
It's definitely 2x as fast if you render half the frames.
I would completely disagree that people are picking the 3080 and 4080 for 1440P resolution. I bought the 3080 originally for 4K and most people I see buying the 4080 Super claim that they are buying for 4K. The budget spent is a lot, and you expect it the best performance at 4K. Granted I bought a 3090 soon after I realized 10GB VRAM was limiting my 4K experience, and now I am using a 4090. It is very disappointing that Nvidia only has a single GPU capable of 4K gaming with Ray Tracing.

Do you think they meant twice as big.. or maybe they were using an outdated TMI index? The equation changes like every month... Technically speaking at one point it could have been twice as long with maybe enough equivalent girth

You need a calculator for 2 times 92? Oh no, I just wanted my viewers to know the calculator reassured my numbers! Yeah right...
I thought the 4080 was about 30% faster in raw performance. But with frame gen approached twice the performance.
Since the 4080 super and 3080ti has the same CUDA core count I decided to underclock it. So, I noticed that if I underclock my 4080 super to 3080ti levels it in rasterization preforms no different than the 3080ti I once had in benchmarks. Think there is no IPC gains from cross generations besides clock speed lol. But the 4080 super becomes an extremely efficient 3080ti that pulls 3060ti power.

In fact, it is the same as always. Just choose your price point and upgrade every two generations and you are fine. Game settings are always flexible enough to let you game on the last gen GPU.
Ok, the 3070 was a fail, but the 8gb were unchanged since the 1070, so that was predictable...

i am 30 Years Gamer from good old Viper Gpu times... I have 1 Rule ... Upgrade only when your Next GPU is 2x Faster and more.
To be fair, my old 3090 was only getting 20 fps in Cyberpunk (1440p max settings + path tracing) and was basically unplayable. I just upgraded to a 4080 Super and now I'm getting 100+ fps with DLSS 3.5 and frame gen. People keep bringing up FG mods for 30 series cards but they are generally unstable, have even more latency, and don't perform as well. Trust me I've tried them all, last-gen cards are simply not built to run that tech. Not saying Nvidia isn't misleading consumers with their performance claims though, they should clearly note that the new metrics are based on FG numbers.
I just have to say. I love your content and helped me pick out a GPU
I play Bethesda games in 3rd person. I'm curious how that would effect your Starfield numbers.
Graphics card need more Memory VRAM like 32GB or more like 64GB VRAM . The difference is going improvement in speed and for more large textured scenes.
I got a 3080 10gb for 500 bucks used and it's been great. No, 10gb is not enough for all games, but a few settings tweaks and it's fine. I have the 3423DWF and I shoot for 90 or more fps in single player, and 140s or more for multiplayer, and the 3080 with settings tweaks delivers. I won't upgrade until the 50 or 8000 series.
That 10gb was exactly why I got a 3080ti used for just under 600 over a year ago. I'm not too scared about the vram boogieman but at that performance level I wanted the comfort of that extra couple gb plus the 12% performance boost from the ti essentially being a 12gb 3090. At the time the 3080s were $550 and 390s were $750 so the ti just made sense. These should even last us past 50 series as I think you'll see a slowdown on graphics because they're already pulling away from what the consoles are capable of and obviously they can't abandon that market..
I got my 3080 10gb for $400 USD used and it's also been great tbh.
F to the people who spent thousands on it during the crypto boom, but the amount of hate it gets now is really disproportionate.
It's a great used card.
@@ThisLuvee I wouldn't be too worried about the vram boogieman with 10gb. This has actually pissed me off at HUB because Steve _purposely_ overruns vram usage with unrealistic settings without upscaling to try and push a vram narrative. When I saw his video bashing the 3070 showing "SEE?!?! It's only hitting 7fps!!" While the 6800 he was comparing to that was notably more expensive he was praising for 32fps or some shit and it made me lol at the blatant misinformation. I lost a lot of respect for Steve and HUB when he went on his vram crusade using obvious cherry picked titles and settings that aren't even in his benchmark suite to try and force a narrative that wasn't very accurate when you account for realistic settings. The funniest part is there was quite a few titles in there where the 3070 _still_ beat the more expensive 6800 when he couldn't force a vram overrun, but of course he completely ignored that in his conclusion.
He's got a point where it's an issue and Nvidia really _should_ have designed the 3070 for 10gb and the 3080 for 12, but that's neither here nor there and it still gets horribly exaggerated by AMD fanboys and HUB when it can be easily sidestepped by using DLSS and slightly tinkering with settings. And even then with most games you can't even overrun 10gb of vram unless you're actually _trying_ by pushing settings well beyond the card's capabilities.
Believe me, I've tried to overrun the 12gb on my 3080ti in his focus games which was TLoU and Hogwarts but he was testing them right after they were launched and they've been patched since then and use less vram. I couldn't top 11.5 even in 4k. Using 2 games that were known to have launch issues for a comparison? Yeah, that's not cherry picked at all....
Huge difference in temps between the two
My man really needed a calculator for that 😂😂😂
