Here we test three games, all at 3840×2160 resolution using maximum image quality settings.

We don't focus too heavily on game benchmarks in our partner cards reviews as performance doesn't tend to change a whole lot when compared to the reference models. In this instance, all three RTX 5080s we are reviewing today perform functionally identically, given there's typically less than a single frame separating all three – there's no way you'd actually spot the difference between the cards when gaming in the real world.
