I think it's fine honestly - remember we have inflation, semiconductor shortage, and 3090s retailed at the same price like two years ago. Nobody honestly needs this level of hardware for "gaming", like honestly 12-24gb vram? I'm not saying you shouldn't buy it if you want it but it's definitely a luxury product or for non-partnered AI work.
- dudeinhawaii 4y agoThis is not true unfortunately. For high-end 4k gaming you can easily become memory throttled on 8 or 10GB of VRAM. This is the performance cliff you see on cards like the RTX 3070 8GB card. Granted, it's not for everyone, but it's certainly something 4k gamers would want.
- vanviegen 4y agoSo.. you're confirming it's a luxury product? One doesn't need 4k to enjoy a game.
- mechanical_bear 4y agoOne doesn’t need to game.
- njdvndsjkv 4y agoI think this hits the nail its head. Nobody "deserves" a top of the line gaming GPU. And if most gamers can't afford it, game developers will not develop for it as a minimum. Especially for multiplayer games where the total number of players in integral to the game being played at all (which is why many are free to play).
- brokenmachine 4y agoI bought an 8Gb GPU recently and was slightly surprised to find that I needed to turn down settings to save vram in newer games.
- fomine3 4y agoSome Mod users and VRChat users really wants VRAM because it's not optimized well, but don't need highend
