Apparently, the RTX 5080 of Nvidia It also has some models that come with a reduced amount of Rops.
NVIDIA RTX 5080: They also detect a GPU with lower specifications
Nvidia I had mentioned the models RTX 5090 and RTX 5070 TIthat's why we believed that RTX 5080 He would have fought from this problem, but it seems that it is not.
Recently, a graphics card has been detected RTX 5080 who are having a number of Rops (Raster Operations Pipeline) lower. This was discovered by Reddit user U/Gingeraffe90which published a screenshot of GPU-Zwhich reveals that his RTX 5080recently acquired, presents only 104 Rop instead of 112 rop What should you have. The specifications have been validated, which shows that there is RTX 5080 with missing rop.

This attracts attention, how Nvidia He omitted that the RTX 5080 It is also affected by this problem. Recall that Nvidia acknowledged that this ruling is made, so the only one to solve it is to ask for a replacement from the Nvidia partnership manufacturer or directly in the store where it was bought, there is no possible solution via software (graphic controllers, vbs).
Nvidia He had also commented that this affected the 0.5% Of the GPUS that had been distributed, so meeting one of these graphics cards is having a lot of bad luck. In addition, the only way to detect them with some tool that allows you to see the specifications of the GPU in detail, as is the case of GPU-Z, which is a free tool.
A better amount of Rop means lower performance. Nvidia speaks of 4% impact on performance, although in the case of RTX 5080ROP reduction would be approximately 7%.
We will see how this matter evolves and if the number of cases does not multiply over the days. We will keep you informed.
