In accordance with a latest Chiphell discussion board publish, Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 4080 16GB was seen benchmarked in 3DMark TimeSpy whereas overclocked to a formidable 3GHz clock pace. At 3GHz, the chip outperformed Nvidia’s earlier era RTX 3090 Ti (overclocked to 2,200MHz) by 3,500 factors in the identical benchmark.
The RTX 4080 16GB could be seen clocking as much as 3000MHz flat in a GPU-Z screenshot proven within the Chiphell discussion board publish. However most impressively, the 4080 is working on the 3GHz peak whereas sustaining its default energy score of 320W, with a peak energy score of 333W measured on GPU-Z. Temperatures have been additionally superb at 60C.
That is very completely different from the 3GHz RTX 4090 outcomes we have seen on-line, the place the end-user was pressured to run the GPU at 600W of energy consumption to hit these very excessive clock speeds. If the 4090 16GB 3DMark outcomes are true , it seems to indicate us that decrease core depend fashions can have higher overclocking capabilities in comparison with the RTX 4090.
However for now, take this knowledge with a grain of salt because the RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 16GB evaluation embargos haven’t but been lifted. Nevertheless, as soon as we get the playing cards in for testing, we’ll higher perceive how properly these GPUs can actually overclock.
However, total, it seems like Nvidia’s Ada Lovelace structure – working on the TSMC 4N node, does have sufficient headroom to realize a flat 3GHz clock pace, irrespective of the SKU. In fact, the silicon lottery may play a task in what number of GPUs obtain 3GHz flat. Nevertheless, we would not be shocked if most RTX 40 sequence GPUs can hit this focused frequency primarily based on the outcomes we’re seeing now for the RTX 4080 and RTX 4090.
TimeSpy Rating Evaluation
The RTX 4080 16GB achieved at 28,929 level graphics rating in 3DMark’s TimeSpy benchmark (the non-extreme model). This places it precisely 3,518 factors – or 13.8% forward of one of the best RTX 3090 Ti consequence we discovered on 3DMark’s benchmark browser – which options 25,411 factors within the graphics rating, with a hefty overclock of 2265MHz.
Sadly, we haven’t any RTX 4090 TimeSpy outcomes to check in opposition to, so take this consequence for what you’ll. Once more, RTX 4090 evaluations can be out quickly, so we’ll have a greater thought of how briskly this 3GHz 4080 is as soon as third get together evaluations – and our personal evaluation, is out for the 4090.
