Our RTX 5080 GPU review reveals performance virtually identical to the RTX 4080 Super, yet stock is scarce, and pre-built systems exceed $2,500. For upgrades, consider the RTX 40-series instead. For instance, HP offers an Omen 35L RTX 4080 Super gaming PC for just $1,839.99 with the coupon code "DUO20". This liquid-cooled PC delivers exceptional value and performance at any resolution.
HP Omen 35L RTX 4080 Super Gaming PC: $1,840

HP Omen 35L: Intel Core Ultra 5 245K, RTX 4080 Super, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD
This system features an Intel Core Ultra 5 245K CPU, GeForce RTX 4070 Super GPU, 16GB DDR5-6000MHz RAM, and a 512GB SSD, originally priced at $1,699.99. Upgrading to the RTX 4080 Super adds $600, totaling $2,299.99. Apply the 20% off coupon "DUO20" for the final price of $1,839.99.
The Intel Core Ultra 5, a 14-core Meteor Lake CPU with a 5.2GHz max turbo frequency, excels in gaming and workstation tasks. Its AI-optimized NPU and lower power consumption are key 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-most powerful RTX 40-series card, delivers exceptional 4K gaming at high frame rates, even with ray tracing. Its higher clock speed, CUDA core count, and memory bandwidth provide a 5-10% performance boost 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 RTX 4080, is a true 4K powerhouse. It consistently excels at high resolutions, especially with Nvidia's DLSS. Even without DLSS or ray tracing (e.g., Total War: Warhammer 3), it achieves impressive 4K performance: 79fps, compared to the RTX 4080's 76fps and the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX's 86fps."
Consider This Upgraded RTX 4080 Super Configuration: $2,264
