Take a hard look at the specs, and you'll see the RTX 5080 is just an RTX 5070 in disguise. Nvidia's greed may be at play, and...

The GeForce RTX 5080 is actually an RTX 5070, or at least it should be based on its hardware configuration. This is the reason the RTX 5080 is so underwhelming: it should be sitting in the 70 class at a lower price point, delivering much more impressive gains generation over generation. Instead, Nvidia has become greedy, and that's what we will be exploring in this article.

The reason we can confidently say the RTX 5080 is actually an RTX 5070 in all but name is because not so long ago we explored the history of Nvidia's GPU configurations, dating back to the GeForce 700 series from 2013 (see our feature: Nvidia's GPU Classes Through the Years).

Seems to be about in line with what everyone is saying.  Are people finally waking up to Nvidia's shenanigans?  Given how the cards are sold out everywhere, idk.
