According to a publication in Chiphell Forums, one of its users was able to benchmark Nvidia’s now-cancelled RTX 4080 12GB graphics cards. Unfortunately, performance was very poor for an RTX 4080-class GPU, with 3DMak Fire Strike and TimeSpy results only matching Nvidia’s Ampere-based RTX 3080 12GB. This performance is disappointing considering that the RTX 4080 12GB was technically supposed to replace the RTX 3080 12GB.

The original source never revealed the exact RTX 4080 12GB model that was tested. However, the poster still showed us the full GPU monitoring data, including core frequencies, thermal parameters and power, so we have a good idea of ​​how these cards behave.
