Nvidia RTX 4080 Super Founders Edition Graphics Card Review

Far Cry 6

Welcome to Yara, a tropical paradise frozen in time. As the dictator of Yara, Antón Castillo is intent on restoring his nation to its former glory by any means necessary, with his son, Diego, following in his bloody footsteps. Their oppressive rule has ignited a revolution.

Available now on Steam.

Far Cry 6 is another game that sees increases in performance, but not by anything substantial where we’re only talking 4% but the 1% lows do see a larger gain of 9%, in a bid to smooth things out a little. While the performance is now closer to AMD, both the 7900 XT and XTX still hold the lead by 1 and 11% respectively.

As we move up to 4K, the performance difference between the 4080 and the SUPER is negligible at just 1 FPS, but the increase of 10 FPS in the lows is very much welcomed, though AMD still manages to push ahead with the 7900 XT pumping out 3% more performance and the XTX coming in an impressive 19% ahead.

When we enabled Ray Tracing, the RTX 4080 was sitting just behind the 7900 XTX, whereas now, the SUPER, thanks to an increase of 4% in the averages, nips just passed AMD in both the averages and the 1% lows which have now seen a sizable 12% uplift as well.

At 4K, AMD managed to claw it back, even with a 2% increase in performance going from the 4080 to the 4080 SUPER, but at such close performance between them all, it’s nothing you’d likely ever notice, but a win is still a win, and on this occasion, it’s to the cheaper AMD card.
