What does this comparison mean?
The 5080 is far ahead of the 11GB GTX 1080 Ti here and carries 16GB. This is a major era jump from a once-leading card.
GTX 1080 Ti 11GB has 11GB and RTX 5080 16GB has 16GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.
The two GPUs in context
GTX 1080 Ti 11GB
The GTX 1080 Ti turned the larger Pascal chip into an exceptionally strong gaming flagship and remained a frequent yardstick for upgrades long after its launch. Its 11GB design and large performance step justify a rare Hall of Fame place.
RTX 5080 16GB
The RTX 5080 is a capable 4K Blackwell card, yet its native-rendering advance over the 4080 Super was modest for a new generation. It remains a high-end option, with a legacy still too young to judge firmly.

How the figures are compared
Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage above compares the higher model average with the lower one; the score scales every model against the fastest GPU in the current dataset, which scores 100. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS, and the percentage may change with the benchmark dataset.
