Using the graphics card-only power draw figures presented earlier in the review, here we present performance per Watt on a per-game basis for all twelve games we tested at 2160p (4K).

Per-Game Results at 2160p (4K):

12-Game Average at 2160p (4K):

Lastly, 4K is really more of the same, with the 5080 still leading the way, while the 5070 a is mere 5% more efficient than the 4070 Super.

Ray tracing results

As a bonus, we now include the power figures for all eight games we test with ray tracing enabled.

8-Game ray tracing average:

With ray tracing enabled, efficiency is no better than most of the 40 series and still lags behind the RTX 5080.
