GeForce RTX 5080 vs RTX 2000 Ada Generation specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 5080 GPU is faster than the RTX 2000 Ada Generation in gaming.

The GeForce RTX 5080 has a slightly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the GeForce RTX 5080 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the RTX 2000 Ada Generation has a significantly lower TDP at 70 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 5080 at 360 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 5080 is better than the RTX 2000 Ada Generation.
