Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Benchmark Leak Shows Performance Gains

Now that the GeForce RTX 5090 has been thoroughly examined (you can check out our review here), it’s time to look at the upcoming Blackwell GPU: the GeForce RTX 5080. This GPU features a slight increase in CUDA cores and is equipped with 16 GB of GDDR7 VRAM. However, according to Nvidia’s own tests, this doesn’t translate into a significant boost in performance—at least not without the help of DLSS and other enhancements. We’re now getting insights on how the GeForce RTX 5080 performs in Geekbench and Blender tests.

Performance in Geekbench

In the OpenCL benchmark from Geekbench, the GeForce RTX 5080 achieved a score of 256,138 points. This is just a minor 3% improvement over the GeForce RTX 4080, which has an average score of 247,392 points in our database. On a brighter note, when tested in Vulkan, the RTX 5080 scored 261,836 points, indicating a notable 37% increase compared to its predecessor (190,888). This performance also confirms its boost clock of 2.6 GHz, showing that the GPU doesn’t face throttling issues.

Blender Results

Turning our attention to Blender, the RTX 5080 averages around 9063.77 points, which is approximately 10% quicker than the RTX 4080’s score of 8286.35.

All things considered, the GeForce RTX 5080 does not present a substantial performance upgrade. However, its laptop version shows a much better performance which is promising.
