Graphics card for creatives, if you can find it

RTX 4080 graphics cards have been released, and content creators are wondering whether to invest.

Puget Systems has performed benchmark tests on Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and After Effects in order to see how the GPU performs.

You may be surprised.

Performance boosts

Performance was compared to the existing RTX 3000 series line-up, the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, and AMD Radeon RX 6900XT.

In DaVinci Resolve, our top choice for best free video editing software, Puget Systems noted that the GPU is used to process GPU effects, debayer (and optionally decode) RAW media, and decode/encode H.264/HEVC.

Compared to the RTX 3080 Ti, it offers a 10% performance boost, while remaining roughly the same as the RTX 3090 Ti. However, CPU-based tasks were also taken into account. With strictly graphics-driven tasks, such as OpenFX, DaVinci Resolve performed 18% faster than the 3080 Ti.

In terms of GPU-accelerated effects, Premiere Pro was 5% faster than its predecessor overall – and around 7% faster than the RTX 3080 Ti. Users may also benefit from GPU-led plugins for noise reduction and the like.

Nvidia’s RTX 30 and RTX 40 series scored similarly in testing Adobe’s VFX software. It’s worth noting that After Effects (and many After Effects alternatives) are CPU-bound.

Software for game development and 3D modeling and rendering was also examined.

The RTX 4080 saw nearly a 70% increase in framerates over the RTX 3080 (and over 40% against the RTX 3080 Ti). V-Ray (75% faster), OctaneRender (67% faster), Maxon Redshift (60% faster), and Blender (80% faster) also saw increased performance against older graphics. To no one’s surprise, the meatier RTX 4090 beat the RTX 4080 in each of these tests.

In-store availability of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 has been limited so far.
