PNY GeForce RTX 5080 16GB GDDR7
The Blackwell architecture and 16GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus deliver a 56.3 FP32 TFLOPS compute ceiling, driving a 35,759 PassMark G3D score for substantial 1440p and ray tracing performance. DLSS 4.0 with 4th-gen RT Cores provides a clear path to higher frame rates in demanding titles without compromising visual fidelity. This triple-fan card is best for gamers targeting high-refresh 1440p and entry-level 4K experiences who prioritize AI-enhanced rendering over raw workstation compute.
