News RTX 5080 with missing ROPs takes a 12% performance hit in synthetic benchmark

[Admin]

The RTX 5080 is also reported to be plagued by manufacturing flaws. Eight missing ROPs are reported to have reduced performance by up to 12%.

Nvidia clowning. Spend some of your billions on validation, this is embarrassing.

I would speculate that this was intentional as a stop gap.

The 5000 series might be the worst launch ever. Is this a result of nvidia shifting attention and resources away from the consumer market?

D model love coming your way.

One world. One market. One card.

They already said they have no interest in supplying two sets of cards. A D model for china and a model for the rest of the world. This is the start of conditioning westerns consumer to have the same "power" as china gets.

Then they only have to make one card. Not two.

What is sad, is that for that kind of money you could only get a %5 or %10 max increase in performance if you are an unlucky card holder. And i think the %10 is optimistic considering they themselves are saying you are taking a %12 hit.

No, the real issue here is a massive bottleneck and slowdown at the foundries. By a mile at that.

Much of the last few previous gen-to-gen boosts were afforded by default moving to a new node process, but this time around it was not viable to do, because it was just too expensive.

Staying at the same process as Series 40 really crippled Series 50 - architecture-wise Series 50 is actually pretty nice, but without the usual huge transistor boost due to denser process - it is dead in the water.

I hope Series 60 will be viable to make with 3nm process and I bet Series 70 will be like 50s all over again.

It's over 14% difference - not 12%.
