Radeon RX 6800 vs GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER GPU is faster than the Radeon RX 6800 in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER 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 4080 SUPER 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 Radeon RX 6800 has a slightly lower TDP at 250 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER at 340 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is better than the Radeon RX 6800.
