Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition Review
War Thunder

War Thunder is a free-to-play vehicular combat multiplayer game that focuses on historical battles across World War II and the Cold War. Developed by Gaijin Entertainment, it features a wide range of aircraft, tanks, and naval vessels from various nations. Players can participate in large-scale battles with other players, completing objectives and striving for victory.

Then lastly War Thunder at 1440p gives us a 13% uplift over the RTX 4080 while the move from the 4080 SUPER comes in much less at just 5%, though the 1% lows are much healthier on the new Blackwell-based GPU. This doesn’t sound overly impressive but does widen the gap over AMD as the 5080 now wides the gap as it sits 26% ahead of AMD, so unless the red team can pull it out of the bag with the new RDNA4 cards, it does seem like NVIDIA have the market sewn up.

At 4K, we see the 5080 coming in with 8% more performance than the RTX 4080 and a pretty measly 2% over the 4080 SUPER, though again the 1% lows do come in stronger with a 17% uplift, which does again widen that gap over AMD, though I think consumers may have just been expecting a little bit more.
