I wonder
Could the 4080S vs 7900 XTX get anywhere close depending on price?
How much cheaper would the XTX have to be to compensate for the shortcomings?
mortal grail
It depends on the context
It's not a straight win or lose on either side in pretty much every category that isn't RT
Generally speaking the XTX is the better pick if you don't focus on blender or religiously use heavy RT
I'd consider a 4080/S (same thing) when they're within $40-ish of an XTX
Beyond that margin you need a really good reason, like again, blender, to justify otherwise
