Our RTX 5080 GPU review reveals performance virtually identical to the RTX 4080 Super, yet stock is scarce, and pre-built systems exceed $2500. Consider a superior value with the RTX 40-series. For instance, HP offers an Omen 35L RTX 4080 Super gaming PC for just $1839.99 with the code "DUO20". This liquid-cooled powerhouse excels at any game and resolution.
HP Omen 35L RTX 4080 Super Gaming PC: $1840
### HP Omen 35L: Intel Core Ultra 5 245K, RTX 4080 Super, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD
Initially priced at $2619.99, this system (Intel Core Ultra 5 245K CPU, RTX 4080 Super GPU, 16GB DDR5-6000MHz RAM, 512GB SSD) drops to $1839.99 after a 30% discount and applying the "DUO20" coupon. The RTX 4080 Super upgrade adds $600 to the base price of $1699.99.
The Intel Core Ultra 5, a 14-core Meteor Lake processor with a 5.2GHz turbo, is ideal for gaming and workstation tasks. Its AI-optimized NPU and lower power consumption are significant advantages. While Core Ultra 7 or 9 upgrades are available, high-resolution gaming gains are minimal due to GPU limitations.
The RTX 4080 Super, Nvidia's second-tier RTX 40-series card, delivers high frame rates at 4K resolution, even with ray tracing. Its superior base clock, CUDA core count, and memory bandwidth provide a 5-10% performance edge over the RTX 4080. It rivals AMD's Radeon RX 7900 XTX, surpassing it in ray tracing and DLSS 3.0-supported titles. Its performance is nearly identical to the RTX 5080, with matching VRAM.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 Super Review by Jacqueline Thomas
"The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 Super, mirroring the original RTX 4080, excels as a true 4K graphics card. It consistently delivers exceptional performance at this resolution, especially with Nvidia's DLSS. Even without DLSS or ray tracing (e.g., Total War: Warhammer 3), it achieves a remarkable 79fps at 4K, outperforming the RTX 4080 (76fps) and closely trailing the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (86fps)."
