RTX 5080 Laptop vs RTX 5080
The RTX 5080 is about 41% faster than the RTX 5080 Laptop across 210 games at 4K High in our estimates. The gap at 1440p and 4K compares what each card can draw on its own, so only the graphics card makes the difference. At 1080p, fast cards are often held back by the processor, so the gap is smaller.

Is the RTX 5080 Laptop as fast as the desktop RTX 5080?
No. In our estimates the desktop RTX 5080 is about 22% faster at 1080p, because the laptop chip runs on less power (about 175 W here vs 360 W for the desktop card).
Does the power limit (TGP) change the result?
Yes. Laptop chips are estimated at a typical power limit (RTX 5080 Laptop about 175 W). A laptop with a lower limit is slower, one with a higher limit a little faster, so check the TGP in the laptop's specs or reviews.
