Taking that runor as a base and looking at TPU's database:

That would put the 5080 at around 30% faster than the 4080. Not a mind blowing improvement, but a good one for sure.

We'll see how it's priced and how much memory it will have.

It'll probably stay at 16GB, or 20GB if that can't provide enough bandwidth - which with GDDR7 it should do.

I'm actually more worried about the gap between the 5080 and the 5070, going from 400W all the way down to 220W is nuts. Extrapolating from the 4070 Super (which has the same 220W TDP) and the performance gains for the 5080 over the 4090 and their TDP difference, I'm not even sure it can reach the 4070Ti in terms of raw performance. Imagine the gap having nothing between the 4090 and the 4070Ti...

The 5060 meanwhile has a higher TDP than the 4060Ti and should make a big leap in performance over it's predecessor, probably between 4070 and 4070 Super. Which doesn't leave a whole lot of room for a 5060Ti anymore. I do hope NVidia gives the card at least 12GB of VRAM this time around, though.

The 5050 meanwhile is with 100W lower than the 3050 8GB (115W-130W depending on the model), but considerably higher than the 3050 6GB (70W) and closest to the 4060 (110W) in TDP, so I expect a performance somewhat above the one of the 4060 when extrapolating from the 5080.

The memory configuration can be an interesting point for the 5080 because, while it will likely be faster than a 4090, the extra VRAM of the later could give it an edge when gaming at 4K or other high resolutions. GDDR7 will help the 5080, but if it's 16 vs 24GB, I don't know if it will be enough.

I wouldn't put too much though on the power consumption leaks/rumors, at least not yet. We don't even know if they refer to only the GPU, or the whole board, for example, and we've seen how the rumors about the 5090 and 5080 went from 400 and 350W to now 600 and 400W.

But well, it's obvious that Nvidia is leaving gaps for the Ti and/or Super cards.
