…the overall performance of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 cannot compete with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Therefore, the original plan of the GeForce RTX 5080 D may be aborted, but the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 is bound to have a “D” The version plan is still in the early stages of planning at this stage, so it depends on NVIDIA’s subsequent overall plan.
