GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop vs GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER GPU is faster than the GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 120 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER at 340 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is faster than the GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop.
