Performance Analysis
The FP16 dense figure of 61.7 TFLOPS on the RTX 5070 stands at exactly twice its FP32 value of 30.9 TFLOPS and the same ratio holds for the RTX 5080 where FP16 dense reaches 112.6 TFLOPS against its FP32 value of 56.3 TFLOPS. Memory bandwidth of 960 GB/s on the RTX 5080 exceeds the 672 GB/s rating on the RTX 5070 by a factor of 1.43 and therefore supports larger batch sizes during both training and inference passes. Direct comparison of dense FP16 shows the RTX 5080 at 112.6 TFLOPS versus 61.7 TFLOPS on the RTX 5070 while the sparse FP16 values follow the same proportion at 225.1 TFLOPS versus 123.5 TFLOPS.

When to Choose the RTX 5070
Choose the RTX 5070 for small model inference, development, or a single user endpoint where the model fits in 12 to 16 GB and raw speed is secondary. It runs the same Blackwell formats as the RTX 5080, listing 123.5 TFLOPS dense FP8 and 493.9 TFLOPS dense FP4, so anything that works on the bigger card works here, only more slowly. Confirm the listing is the 16 GB configuration if you plan to use a long context.
When to Choose the RTX 5080
The RTX 5080 fits tasks that scale directly with its 112.6 TFLOPS dense FP16 rating and 960 GB/s bandwidth when larger batch sizes or higher throughput become necessary. Its 16 GB VRAM and 56.3 TFLOPS FP32 performance support sustained operation at the higher 360W TDP for extended compute sessions.
Use Cases
The RTX 5080 supplies 112.6 TFLOPS dense FP16 against 61.7 TFLOPS on the RTX 5070 allowing larger effective batch sizes with 960 GB/s bandwidth.
Higher dense FP16 at 112.6 TFLOPS and 16 GB VRAM on the RTX 5080 sustain greater token throughput than the 61.7 TFLOPS and 12 to 16 GB range on the RTX 5070.
The 225.1 TFLOPS sparse FP16 rating on the RTX 5080 doubles the 123.5 TFLOPS sparse FP16 value of the RTX 5070 for accelerated adapter updates.
Both GPUs deliver FP8 dense performance scaled from their FP16 figures with the RTX 5070 at 123.5 TFLOPS and the RTX 5080 at 225.1 TFLOPS.
FP32 performance of 56.3 TFLOPS on the RTX 5080 nearly doubles the 30.9 TFLOPS rating of the RTX 5070 for double precision workloads.

How this page is made
- Specifications come from the NVIDIA, AMD and Intel datasheets for the RTX 5070 and the RTX 5080. Dense and sparse throughput are listed separately.
- Prices and availability are live: every offer shown is an in-stock, on-demand listing from a provider we track, rechecked every minute.
- The written comparison (overview, performance notes, when to choose each card, verdict, use cases and FAQ) was drafted with an AI model from the specification table above and passed an automated check that rejects any figure not in that table. It was last generated on . It contains no prices; those are always read live.
