yeah it'll get a lower score.
it could beat the 4080 in raster but if it loses to raytracing and AI/driver features then it makes sense.
in my eyes once you pass a grand of cash on these toys, tossing another hundred or so on top doesnt mean much if you get the best "overall" package and imo all of the features get weighed, I used an amd card awhile back and sold it for an nvidia card because they have better features for my uses although the choice of card was slightly weaker, it was still better.
with the money these companies want you better pay for the best all-around performance you can afford, thats what nvidia is leaning on.
