Live benchmark data
In verified runs saved here, RTX 5070 Ti averages 32% higher FPS. Averages mix every resolution and settings level owners actually ran, so treat this as a directional signal, not a lab result.
Verdict — RTX 5080
The reasonable enthusiast pick. 16 GB VRAM is enough for now but will feel tight in a couple of years for 4K modded games. Runs cool and quiet compared to the 5090.
Verdict — RTX 5070 Ti
For most people wanting to game at 1440p or entry-level 4K, this is the card to buy. Aftermarket pricing is often close enough to the 5080 to make that upsell tempting.
