Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Review vs RTX 5090/RTX 4090/RTX 4080 Super - Performance Worthy Of The Name?

The RTX 5080 is a strong-performing GPU - to a point. It offers significant value advantages over RTX 4090 and RTX 5090 - but it's nowhere near as fast as either of them. Meanwhile, performance gains over the outgoing RTX 4080 Super are variable but never transformative. DLSS 4 multi frame generation is a nice-to-have feature - but comparisons against RTX 4090 with standard frame-gen show mixed results with latency. Rich has the complete lowdown.
