And with how much higher the 4080 Super is when compared with the 7900XTX on that chart I wouldn’t trust it at all. They are within a couple of % in raster.

At this point , NVIDIA 50 and 60 series of each generation gonna suck lol
Prophetforhire
The 50 series is the budget model. This is like comparing a 1995 Porsche 911 to a 2024 Toyota yaris dude.

Nvidia are in the AI industry with gaming on the side.

If I find a GTX 1080Ti somewhere in my local area I swear I’m gonna buy it and make myself a budget PC build for emulators, indie games and watch YouTube/movies on it, I’d say it’s worth it.

Wasnt 1080Ti also like 3x more expensive?
TehWildMan_
Insane that a modern $250 midrange card in 2025 still only offers about double the performance at roughly the same price (adjusted for inflation) of a RX 580 from….. A long time ago.
Nice that it offers roughly double the performance at roughly 60% the power draw, but the value….. Ick.

This is why the 5030 is called the 5050.
HardStroke
Not really, the 5050 is usually a bit better.
If you take into consideration the prices, the 1080Ti blows it out of the water.
I know prices are different all over the world but in my country, a used 1080Ti goes for around $180 while a new 5050 goes for $420.

Mega cope. 1080ti consumes way more power and has no dlss support. In real world gaming the rtx 5050 smokes the 1080ti I bet.

And it has 3gb more VRAM

I’ve heard an add in the radio. It says something like “Just now, we’ve got gaming laptops with RTX 4050 bla bla…”. Is laptop with 4050 a gaming laptop?

What kind of graph is this? What is it measuring? Is it average temperature while browsing in chrome? Is it cyberpunk average fps in ultra settings? Is it 1080p frame rate for a random 2010 game in low settings? This doesn’t tell us anything.
I truly don’t want to defend Nvidia but even if this is a comparison of raw power, this would be neglecting the existence of important technologies like Ray tracing, DLSS, DSR, and overlooks the power consumption.
While I understand that you are trying to say that an 8 year old GPU shouldn’t be able to hold a candle to the new generations, you are misleading many people who might actually be on the market for a new GPU.

Thats a dogshit webssite lmfao, notice how its showing the 7900xtx as barely better than the 4070s
Use techpowerup or nanoreview. Youll see that the 5050 has better raster than the 1080ti
my fking god, this is real ?! bc its rlly bad then , instant of progress we got the inverse..
KerbodynamicX
Does anyone even buy the 50-class cards? I thought 60-class is the bare minimum
CarlsCarLOL
If we’re taking these numbers as fact, the 5050 is consuming almost have the power for nearly identical performance. Plus you get access to RTX. Y’all are delusional.
Think_Speaker_6060
If this card was priced lower with all the new features it had, man this could be one of the best budget card. But Nvidia won’t do it anyway.
TIGER_SUS
And a 1080 ti is way cheaper
WoodooTheWeeb
Wait isn’t this chart absolute bs? The 4070s isn’t anywhere close to the 7900xtx no? in raytracing sure but not anywhere else
Dry-Garage1604
this is just not true
Don-Tan
The wattage tho

Stop upvoting this crap
PhenoStyle
So my 3060ti is still on the good list
Damon853x
More importantly, the fucking 3060 is still better than a 5050 🤦♂️
theblackyeti
Basically 1080ti performance with a hundred watts less is pretty sweet.

doesnt have the 9070XT which is in the 5070 7900XTX area
Not according to TPU: [https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-5050.c4220](https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-5050.c4220)
