A lot of people have beef with Nvidia's new graphics cards, but it's not specifically about the product itself. The problem is with the rather lackluster generational improvement over the 40 series cards and the fact that these cards used to be tremendously marked up. If you're coming from an RTX 30 series card or older, or you're upgrading from a lower end GPU to a higher end one, then an RTX 50 series card is still one of your best options. RTX 40 series cards, however close in performance to the RTX 50 series they may be, are not readily sourceable, unless you want to take a risk buying a used one off without warranty on eBay or Facebook Marketplace. AMD cards, although a better value on paper, are still marked up in price (i.e. the $599 RTX 9070 XT is about $700 on Amazon).
Performance-wise, the RTX 5080 is no slouch. It's one of the fastest cards on the market, bested only by the $2,000 RTX 5090 and the discontinued $1,600 RTX 4090. This is a phenomenal card for playing the latest, most demanding games in 4K resolution at high settings and ray tracing enabled. The RTX 5080 supports DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation, which means you can push even more frames out of games that support the technology with minimal visual compromise. Recent games that support it include Doom: The Dark Ages, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (after a recent update), Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, Stellar Blade, Borderlands 4 and the upcoming Battlefield 6.
