Not enough verified runs yet for a fair pool verdict — averages appear once each side has at least five.

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.
