The RTX 4080 SUPER is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture, fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC. It contains 45,900 million transistors on a 379 mm² die. The GPU has a base clock of 2295 MHz and a boost clock of 2550 MHz, with memory clocked at 1438 MHz (23 Gbps effective). The 16 GB GDDR6X frame buffer is wired across a 256-bit bus, delivering 736.3 GB/s of memory bandwidth. This bandwidth is sufficient for 4K texture streaming and high-resolution rendering workloads.

The GPU integrates 10,240 shading units, 320 TMUs, and 112 ROPs. It also carries 80 RT cores and 320 Tensor cores, which accelerate ray tracing and AI-accelerated features. The pixel rate is 285.6 GPixel/s and the texture rate is 816.0 GTexel/s. FP32 compute is rated at 52.22 TFLOPS, matching FP16 at a 1:1 ratio. These numbers place the GPU in the top tier for both rasterization and hybrid ray tracing.

In benchmark data, the GPU scores 6600 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 and 34245 in Passmark G3D. Geekbench OpenCL yields 219065 and Vulkan yields 260075. These scores place the GPU at the 86th percentile of all tracked GPUs. When compared to nearest rivals, the RTX 4080 SUPER is 0.1% slower than the RTX 4080, 1.1% slower than the AMD Radeon Pro W5700X, 2.7% slower than the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB, and 2.8% slower than the AMD Radeon 8060S. The differences are within a few percent, meaning the GPU is effectively equal to its closest competitor in raw compute.

Gaming Performance

The FACT PACK contains no measured FPS rows for the Intel Core i7-13700KF paired with the RTX 4080 SUPER. All gaming figures are therefore estimates derived from the component benchmark scores. The CPU's single-thread 3DMark score of 1137 and Cinebench R23 single-core score of 5464 indicate strong frame pacing at 1080p. The GPU's 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 6600 and Passmark G3D score of 34245 suggest it is capable of high frame rates at 1440p and 4K.

For 1080p high-refresh gaming, the CPU will be the primary driver of frame rate, with the GPU having enough bandwidth to avoid stutter. Estimated 1080p ultra frame rates are high enough to exceed the refresh rate of most 144Hz monitors, but the exact FPS cannot be quantified from the data. At 1440p, the GPU becomes the limiting factor, and the 16 GB frame buffer and 736.3 GB/s bandwidth will support high textures. At 4K, the GPU's 86th percentile suggests it can handle most titles at high settings, but the CPU's single-thread performance will be less of a constraint. The estimated FPS for this build is high, but it is not measured, and the data is clearly marked as not measured, so the figures should be treated as estimates only.
