Here we present the average clock speed for each graphics card while running Cyberpunk 2077 for 30 minutes. We use GPU-Z to record the GPU core frequency during gameplay. We calculate the average core frequency during the 30 minute run to present here.

We've tested three RTX 4080 Super cards for launch, with separate reviews available if you want to see those. Over our thirty minute stress test, the RTX 4080 Super Founders Edition averaged 2730MHz. It's also interesting to see how the frequency plot is completely flat – after an initial period of a minute, the card did not budge from 2730MHz, which usually indicates it was not power limited.
