He RTX 5880 Ada Generation is a professional graphics card that replaces the RTX 6000 Ada Generation in China. This is NVIDIA's response to US sanctions The reason we are talking about this card is that Geekbench OpenCL scores for this model are available. What's more, it is said to share roughly the same computing power as the RTX 5080 (according to the latest rumors). So some people In this way we try to estimate the performance of the new generation.
Does RTX 5080 have more performance than RTX 4090?
The RTX 4090 is currently the best performing card on the market. When it launched, the RTX 4090 showed a clear improvement in performance over the previous generation of cards. However, the question is whether the 5080 can beat the 4090.
Based on the RTX 5880's score of 345,871 points, the RTX 4090 has 355,501 points. The 5880 is therefore around 3% above the RTX 4090, which is no small feat. The RTX 4080 Super scores 264,806 points, around 30% less.
In short, if you compare this card with the future 5080, it is because it has a computing power of 69 TFLOPs, more or less equivalent to the estimated 64.5 TFLOPs of a 5080, assuming that its 10,752 cuda cores operate at least at 3,000 MHz. What's more, our colleagues hope that the improvements in IPC generated by the Blackwell generation will compensate for the difference in computing power and memory between the two models. The RTX 5880 is ahead in these aspects.
In our opinion, these are somewhat complicated estimates, with people trying to modify the figures to make them say what they want. Our advice is to wait until we have more reliable data to know what is really happening.
