About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q4 2022 with a MSRP of $1,199. It is built on the Ada Lovelace GPU microarchitecture (codename AD103) and is manufactured on a 5 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 4080 has 16 GB of GDDR6X memory, with a 1,400 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 716.8 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RTX 4080 includes 9,728 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 2,205 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 2,505 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 304 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 112 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 304 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 76 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The RTX 4080 is a large graphics card, occupying 3 PCIe 4.0 x16 expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. With a thermal design power (TDP) of 320 W and a large, 3-slot size, it is recommended to use a power supply of 700 W and a case with sufficient space to accommodate the card. Compare your card's model and your case's dimensions to verify compatibility.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The RTX 4080 has the 3rd best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 82.47% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 86,267 score and $1,199 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 71.95. This is the 43rd best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.

About the NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in Q1 2012. It is built on the Fermi 2.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename GF117) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.

Memory

The GT 630M has 1,024 MB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,000 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 64 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The GT 630M includes 96 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 800 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 16 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 4 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 33 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The GT 630M has the 453rd best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.99% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
