The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Super is a refreshed high-end Ada Lovelace consumer GPU, launched in January 2024 as part of the "Super" refresh. It provides improved performance over the original RTX 4080 at the same launch price, addressing value concerns about the initial RTX 40 series lineup.
The RTX 4080 Super features 16GB of GDDR6X memory with improved AD103 chip configuration providing approximately 5-10% more performance than the original RTX 4080. It includes additional CUDA cores, Tensor Cores, and RT cores compared to its predecessor while maintaining the same power envelope.
DLSS 3 support with Frame Generation enables the RTX 4080 Super to deliver significantly higher frame rates in compatible games. The combination of strong native performance and AI frame generation makes it excellent for 4K gaming with high refresh rates.
The 16GB memory capacity handles current games and applications well, though it's lower than the RTX 4090's 24GB. The RTX 4080 Super offers compelling high-end performance for users who want flagship-class gaming without the premium of the RTX 4090.
