It’s disappointing to see Nvidia has stuck with 16GB of VRAM on the RTX 5080. AMD’s RX 7900 XTX offers 24GB, and while the RTX 5080 delivers better performance for now, it may well hit video memory limits in 4K gaming in the future.

All Nvidia RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs are sold out at major retailers. Scalpers are taking advantage of the rush, selling cards for inflated prices. Consider alternative GPUs and avoid supporting scalpers selling RTX 50 series cards for up to $6000.
