Launch price in today's dollars

The GeForce RTX 5080 launched at $999 in 2025. Adjusted with the U.S. Consumer Price Index, that is about $1,027 in 2026 dollars (7-month average), a 3% rise over 1 year. At its launch price that is 915 Blender points per $100.

Method: launch price × (CPI 2026 average ÷ CPI 2025 average), calendar-year averages of BLS series CPIAUCSL. 2026 covers 7 months so far.

Blender rendering score

Median score 9,136 (middle half of runs 8,912–9,266) across 2,890 community runs on Blender 4.x with the OPTIX backend. That is #6 of 103 graphics cards in our dataset with a score, and #4 of 9 in the GeForce RTX 50 series.

This is a rendering benchmark (samples per minute over the monster, junkshop and classroom scenes), not a gaming benchmark. It says how fast the part renders in Blender's Cycles engine and nothing about frame rates. Source: Blender Open Data, CC0, snapshot 2026-09-06.
