Wondering whether the RTX 5080 Super can run Path of Exile 2 at 4K? Here is the straight performance answer for SA gamers, with real frame targets and the build to match.

Quick Answer

Yes - expect roughly 85-110 fps at 4K on an RTX 5080 Super (around R32,000) at high/ultra settings. With DLSS Quality and frame generation you can push well past these native figures. Path of Exile 2 runs comfortably; your CPU, monitor refresh and settings decide the exact number.

RTX 5080 Super performance in Path of Exile 2 at 4K

At 4K high/ultra, the RTX 5080 Super delivers around 85-110 fps natively in Path of Exile 2. This is a well-optimised title that scales cleanly with settings. Frame generation and DLSS upscaling lift that further when you want maximum smoothness or have ray tracing enabled. To use these frames you want a 120Hz-144Hz 4K panel; anything slower wastes the card's output.

CPU, RAM and the rest of the build

An RTX 5080 Super is only as fast as the components around it. Pair it with Ryzen 7 7800X3D or Core i5-14600K, 32GB of DDR5 and a 1TB Gen4 NVMe SSD so Path of Exile 2 loads fast and frame times stay flat. An 850W 80+ Gold power supply gives safe headroom. At 4K the build is GPU-bound, so a strong CPU keeps 1% lows high during busy scenes.

Settings and value for SA gamers

For the best balance in Path of Exile 2, start at the high preset, cap your frame rate to your monitor's refresh, and enable DLSS Quality if you run ray tracing. An RTX 5080 Super build (card alone around R32,000) is a premium spend, so make sure the CPU and monitor are not the weak link.
