Performance Analysis
The L4 variant delivers 121 TFLOPS FP16 dense while the RTX 4080 SUPER variant delivers 48.7 TFLOPS FP16. The RTX 4080 SUPER variant reaches 48.7 TFLOPS FP32 compared with 30.3 TFLOPS FP32 on the L4 variant, which favors the RTX 4080 SUPER variant in single precision scientific workloads. Memory bandwidth at 300 GB/s on the L4 variant versus 717 GB/s on the RTX 4080 SUPER variant limits maximum batch sizes on the L4 variant during large model training or inference sessions.

When to Choose the L4
The L4 variant suits power constrained environments that require 24 GB memory capacity and 72W TDP operation. Its 121 TFLOPS FP16 dense rating supports efficient inference on models that fit within the higher memory capacity while keeping total system power low.
When to Choose the RTX 4080 SUPER
Its 16 GB GDDR6X memory and 320W TDP configuration handles tasks where higher bandwidth improves throughput despite greater power draw.
Use Cases
The RTX 4080 SUPER variant provides 717 GB/s memory bandwidth that supports larger batch sizes than the 300 GB/s on the L4 variant.
The L4 variant supplies 24 GB memory capacity and 121 TFLOPS FP16 dense that accommodate larger models at lower 72W TDP.
Both variants share Ada Lovelace architecture and the L4 variant 24 GB capacity offsets the RTX 4080 SUPER variant higher bandwidth depending on model size.
The RTX 4080 SUPER variant 717 GB/s bandwidth accelerates image generation workloads compared with 300 GB/s on the L4 variant.
The RTX 4080 SUPER variant delivers 48.7 TFLOPS FP32 that exceeds the 30.3 TFLOPS FP32 of the L4 variant.
