Nick, gaming, and computers all first met in 1981, with the love affair starting on a Sinclair ZX81 in kit form and a book on ZX Basic. He ended up becoming a physics and IT teacher, but by the late 1990s decided it was time to cut his teeth writing for a long defunct UK tech site.
With an MSRP of $999, the RTX 4080 Super is a better deal than the original RTX 4080. It's still a lot of money, though, but a deal like this one makes it a very tempting purchase.earlier this year, we were pleased to see that its MSRP was lower than the original RTX 4080's—$999 instead of $1,199 was a much nicer deal. But given that it was only a fraction quicker, the RTX 4080 Super still felt like it wasn't great value for money.
So what exactly are you getting for your $856? As with all of the current Nvidia RTX 40-series, it's powered by the Ada Lovelace architecture, which is well regarded for being light on power consumption but heavy on the gaming chops. The RTX 4080 Super sports 10,240 CUDA cores and this MSI model's boost clock of 2,595 MHz means it has a peak FP32 throughput of 53.1 TFLOPS.
And then you've got the full DLSS 3.5 feature set of the RTX card. Both GPUs support upscaling and frame interpolation for boosting performance, but Nvidia's AI-powered systems are generally better especially its frame generation system. In terms of performance, there's not much to separate them, but DLSS arguably produces better-looking results.
