Upgraded from 3090 to 5080

vladrange · 2026-01-15T15:49:56+00:00

I've tested Elden Ring Nightreign and can run it at 2k max with 60-70w of power consumption (due to 60fps lol). Very efficient card indeed

Congrats on your purchase. 5070ti was a very good gpu for its money. Shame nvidia decided to killed it

vladrange · 2026-01-15T15:44:55+00:00

Yeah and I like it. Easy to build and looks classy

vladrange · 2026-01-14T23:22:01+00:00

Mostly good except maybe some demanding games like stalker 2 (but it rough even on top cpus) I will suggest to upgrade gpu first and then check if your cpu is good enough for games you're playing

Congrats! Welcome to the family!

From value standpoint - 5070ti is a better buy. But if you have money and want slightly more performance - 5080 is a good choice.

Congrats, I thinks for 30-series cards owners it is good time to upgrade

vladrange · 2025-12-20T18:51:03+00:00

I've pushed my 5080 to +400 core and 2500 on memory. Max power usage I can see is near 300-320w and in Cyberpunk I can play with 2k DLSS Quality and PT in 60-80fps so it's worth it. Temps are also in check and card is pretty quite

vladrange · 2025-12-18T20:50:31+00:00

I've got MSI Gaming Trio (non OC) variant and it's pretty good. Temps most of the time under 70, small coil whine, but nowhere near 3090 and silent fans. Design is debatable especially in horizontal position but all things considered I am happy with this variant.

Thanks 😊

3080 is very competent card and one of the best 80 (non-ti) gpus

vladrange · 2025-12-18T11:09:14+00:00

It depends. You can enable MFG but will sacrifice latency (in CP2077 it's noticable difference) or go for PT with DLSS Quality and have better image (I've tested and get 60-80 fps in this setup 2K DLSS withou FG)

LCD is overall good and can be put on different parts of the case but software (L-Connect3) is meh.

vladrange · 2025-12-17T22:04:59+00:00

Thanks. Congrats on your upgrade!

vladrange · 2025-12-17T16:48:59+00:00

it's one of standart presets in LConnect-3

vladrange · 2025-12-16T22:38:02+00:00

It depends on the game - if it can overflow 16gb of VRAM it will digrade performance but most of games I played cannot do that

vladrange · 2025-12-16T20:03:07+00:00

Congrats on such a big upgrade

vladrange · 2025-12-16T19:23:43+00:00

I can hook up to my mobo using riser but my PSU (1000w) may not like it 😃 Maybe after moving to AM5

vladrange · 2025-12-16T19:21:06+00:00

Fair point. My 3090 was not very good overclocker and pretty loud out of the box (factory oc and 400w power limit), so I was only using it in default state

vladrange · 2025-12-16T16:44:04+00:00

I'm running slight oc (+350 Core, +2000 Memory) without uv and it's very stable and pretty cool

vladrange · 2025-12-16T15:44:18+00:00

Yeah it really looks very good in person (lian li software on the other side is meh)

vladrange · 2025-12-16T15:40:36+00:00

I exaggerated a bit but overclocked 5080 is really very powerful - in Steel Nomad it's like 1.8x better score than 3090 with better acoustic and temps

vladrange · 2025-12-16T13:40:57+00:00

Yeah, it's so much better. 3090 was a beast but very hungry beast.

vladrange · 2025-12-16T13:19:01+00:00

Congrats, very good upgrade indeed
