NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080

Description

Ada Lovelace is replaced by Blackwell
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 for laptops is the latest high-end graphics card in the 50 series and sets new standards in terms of performance and efficiency, tailored primarily to gaming notebooks. As the successor to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080, it benefits from the Ada Lovelace architecture, which has been further developed into Blackwell, and brings noticeable improvements in ray tracing, AI-accelerated DLSS 4 and energy efficiency. This makes it ideal for demanding games in 4K resolution as well as for professional applications such as 3D rendering and AI-supported workloads in business notebooks.

Top performance with many features
Compared to the GeForce RTX 4080, the GeForce RTX 5080 offers significantly increased performance per watt, enabling longer gaming sessions at high settings without compromising battery life. Thanks to DLSS 4 with neural rendering, games such as Cyberpunk 2077 or Alan Wake 2 achieve smooth frame rates even with path tracing enabled. The card also supports AV1 hardware encoding, which enables streamers and content creators to edit and record video more efficiently. The RTX 5080 also supports NVIDIA G-Sync, Max-Q and DirectX 12.2.

NVIDIA is positioning the RTX 5080 as a premium option for performance-oriented users who need more power than the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 or 4080, but are not dependent on the absolute top-end RTX 5090. With optimized cooling and intelligent power management in modern gaming laptops, it is a balanced choice for those looking for high-quality graphics performance and future-proofing.
