NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU Challenges RTX 4090 Laptop in Leaked Benchmark
Once every two years or so, technology enthusiasts like ourselves have our sights pinned on what the GPU giants have in store for us. That moment is here, with both NVIDIA and AMD unveiling their Blackwell and RDNA 4 products respectively. NVIDIA has also announced its laptop offerings, with the RTX 5080 Laptop attempting to rule the mainstream high-performance segment. Now, barely a day or two after launch, we already have a rough idea of how mobile Blackwell is going to perform.
The leaked Geekbench OpenCL results, which comes courtesy of the Alienware Area-51 laptop, reveals how well the RTX 5080 Laptop GPU performs in a 175-watt configuration. According to the numbers, the RTX 5080 Laptop managed to barely exceed the 190,000-points barrier, putting it miles ahead of its predecessor which managed around 160,000. Interestingly, as the headline notes, the RTX 4090 Laptop was also left behind, which scores around 180,000 points on average, although systems with beefier cooling setups can post higher numbers.
That said, it must be kept in mind that consumer Blackwell has more tricks up its sleeve than just raw performance. With AI-driven wizardry such as DLSS 4.0, the RTX 50-series cards can punch well above their weight class, even in scenarios where raw performance fails to deliver. With the official launch set for March, we do have a few more months of waiting to do before being able to test the systems ourselves. Until then, be sure to take leaked benchmarks with a fair amount of skepticism.

Even then we always knew laptop 4090 was a 4080, so what are they even flexing here, 5080 better than 4080? I am glad that is true.
I supppose this implies that the desktop 5070 Ti should slightly outperform the desktop 4080. For $750 that's not a bad deal.
If there was I would've spent the money on one already LOL
Max power draw.
Max power is 270W, which means that 270W TDP+TGP between the 285HX and the RTX 5090M. As mentioned on the bottom of the list this Titan (which is their flagship desktop replacement) has a 99.9 Whr battery.
Not trying to make you look bad, just want to clear up what you saw.
He mentioned that you would have problems bringing it in an airplane "if the battery was more than 100Wh". Also its because its so freaken huge. The Titans are REALLY heavy, like 6 to 8 lbs heavy WITHOUT the AC adapter. The Chicony AC adapter that they use (which is 330W) is this monstrosity:
Also, the way MSI markets the power of their flagship laptops is by combining their max programmed TDP of the CPU and the TGP of the GPU and making a big total number. So assuming they let this 285HX run at 95W, that means that the 5090M would be at 175W, therefore 270W max power.

Here's another example in that video:
You see how MSI does their stupid combined power thing? So 75W for the CPU (275HX) and 175W for the GPU equals 250W. It's confusing marketing at best dude.
RX550: ~64k space ships maximum
RTX4070: 2 million ships, 30-60 FPS, 140 Watts
