GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop vs GeForce RTX 5060 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU is faster than the GeForce RTX 5060 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 5060 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 5060 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 5080 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 80 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 5060 at 145 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 5080 Laptop is faster than the GeForce RTX 5060.
