Frankly you’re very wrong. NPUs and GPUs aside, 16gb of GPU memory is very rare in consumer hardware

- astrange 2y agoYou can't use all 16GB because it's unified, so it's shared with the system, SSD controller etc. You can use something like 12-14GB though.
- DrBenCarson 2y agoSure, still incredibly rare in a $600 device
- angoragoats 2y agoI'm not sure what you mean. RTX 4060 Ti/4070 Ti Super/3090/4090 cards can be easily purchased at any major electronics store in person or online and have 16GB or 24GB depending on model. Once you get up to 32GB, your point would stand, but 16-24GB GPUs are common.
- DrBenCarson 2y agoYes but the average user is not purchasing those, let alone putting together a system with one for $600
- angoragoats 2y agoYou said nothing about price in your initial comment, and the cards I listed are some of the most popular GPUs of the last several years.
