i've been watching some tech youtubers that claim that 8GB is more than enough to play vidya at 1440P and 4k but something tells me this is a lie, my friend who owns a 3060TI tells me that he has to do some workarounds with games like turning shit to medium or even lowering the resolution because he doesnt have enough Vram. are the youtubers lying when they say that the 5060 can handle 1440P and 4K?
>>107841137not worth the riskit's fine if you're buying a $25 rx 570 or $120 2060 super but not on a $300 card in my opinion
>>107841137>>>/v/
It'll get you by if you're willing to lower settings, which you should expect to have to do on an x60-class card anyway. Though if you're such a poorfag that you're shopping in that market and won't be able to upgrade again for another 5 years, you should consider that the situation will probably be a lot different by then.
>>107841160>$25 rx 570real price? starts at $100 in aus on fleabay
>>107841187ebay is a scam, the prices are multiple times higher than the real used market

16gb minimum
i have 6 and my puter works just great
>>107841137>>107841351I too have 6GB and I can even play modern slop at 1080p fine. So 8GB for 1440p might be okay.
I'm not sure about 1440p, I think things start to become a little trickier, but for those wondering if 8GB will be enough to the foreseeable future at 1080p, I absolutely believe it will because of one thing and one thing only: resolution scaling. I turned FSR4 on Cyberpunk simply to test it and was pleasantly surprised to see the game using a bit over 6GB of VRAM (scaling to 1080p, so probably something like 720p as the real solution). Of course, since we living on this cunt Earth, I'm sure this will be used to fuck us over because c-suits will definitely be relying on this to make the games meet their deadlines, so on the long run we all fucking lose.
>>107841137I get well over 60fps at 1440p high settings in warthunder with 8GB of vramIf you don’t play neo-Marxist DEI games made in ue5 you will be fine
>>107841137>i've been watching some tech youtubers that claim that 8GB is more than enough to play vidya at 1440PThat's because the companies want to sell lower tier GPUs now so they have directed them to shill 8GB GPUs again Last year they wanted to sell 16GB GPUs for the higher margin but those have become too expensive for the companies to make now.
>>107841137I just upgraded from 8 to 16gb to play cyberpunk at 1440p, went from 48 to 70 fps.
>>107841816GPU? Let me guess, either a 5060 TI or a 9060 XT
When they say 1440p they really mean DLSSlop/FSlopRNever forget they make content for cash. Always do your own research
>>107841137I have a 3060TI but I play every game at the lowest res/settings it allows down to about 800x600. Many newer games and console ports won't go lower than 720p though.
>>107841378>>107841351Even if you just took literal pixel amounts, 1440p is 1.78 times more pixels than 1080p so 6GB VRAM usage becomes 10.68GB, not to mention all the other factors affecting this. real world scaling taking into consideration buffers, maps and screenspace effects in a properly optimized game will be more like 9-9.5GBshut the fuck up, why the FUCK are you on a technology board if you know NOTHING
>>107841137Depends 100% on what games you play, and what settings.VRAM alone also does not tell the whole story; you could slap that on a GT-710, and it would not run any better.Enabling Gay-Tracing also tanks your performance a shitton, often for no obvious visual gain.Unreal 5 slop won't run well no matter what you do, unless you use AI upscalers and/or framegen, which is what Pajeets want you to do these days by default.Anything a bit older, non-UE5, or "e-sports" oriented will run just fine with way less than 8GB.t: I was on GTX 1060 6GB up until late-2024, and I've been playing at 1200p since 2009.I could easily max out games like Yakuza 0 and up with 2x SSAA, making it essentially 4K+, and still have rock solid 60fps. Deep Rock Galactic, a custom UE4 game, same thing.RE2 remake I played at 150% render scale at locked 80fps.Sekiro and Elden Ring, High settings at locked 60fps.
>>107841978kek
>>107841137>my friend who owns a 3060TI tells me....Your friend is most likely a moron that only plays the latest AAA trash, that is notorious for running like ass AND looking WORSE than 10+ year old AAA games.Reminder that we had people already gaming at 1440p and 144fps back in 2014, when 4GB was the luxurious enthusiast-tier amount of VRAM.
>>107841978>>107841980There is no pride in being poor and from the global south playing shitty old games. enjoy your sub-30fps, shitter

>>107842067Why are you bragging that you paid thousands of dollars to play ue5 slop
>>107841137>Is 8GB Vram enough fortoday but what about tomorrow?
>>107842219why are you bragging that you paid lakhs of rupees to play esports and source engine slop?
>>107841137Depends on what you play/do, a 3070ti cannot max out BF6 on 1440p due to 8GB, same goes for the 5060ti 8GB, and the 5070 mobile with 8GB.The 5060ti and mobile 5070 with 8GB just straight up crash games like Indiana Jones as soon as you turn on Path Tracing even on lowest settings.>>107841351>>1078413781440p won't be okay on anything released past ~2020-ish, but then again depends on what you play, Indie-slop still works fine I guess.Also you said you play modern slop with 6GB VRAM, well, not everyone wants to play on low-med with DLSS Performance on.

>>107841137It will have to be nobody can upgrade
>>107841918>When they say 1440p they really mean DLSSlop/FSlopRThis. My 3080 10GB is still highly capable. I will never use slop generation of any form. Raw dog only.
>>107842644You literally can't play uncharted 4 without it
>>107842030>another techlet poorshitter posting about things of which he knows little.Modern games look worse and run like ass compared to MGS5. MGS5 was the last game to not have constantly blurring and shit smears all over the screen. The game was so optimised (it ran on my PS3 2007 tech) it could run on a potato. People are buying a 5090 for modern titles to only get 20fps native without slop and blur generation combined with flickering and artifacts.
>>107842696Plenty of gacha games look fantastic and run excellently, such as Zenless Zone Zero, Wuthering Waves etc this is a western problem
>>107842467sure
>>107842729>not even XTX>literally the budget option>calls others poor
>>1078411378gb is barely enough for 1080p on newer games. You'll need some upscaling if you want to run games "natively" on 1440p or god forbid 4k.Maybe games from past 5 years ago are fine with 8gb

>>107842891don't be a pussy post hwinfo
>>107841137That's the opposite of what any YouTube worth a damn would say. Literally all the big names say 8gb is inadequate for 1440p without dropping setting, especially if you use DLSS/FSR that takes extra memory.The fuck are you smoking?
>>107841137Easiest rule, if someone says something is enough, double it.
>>107842030>>Image of game that ran horribly even at 1280x1024On a Geforce FX 5600 256MB, mayhaps.It already ran smooth as butter on 8800GT 512mb, at 1366x768.But that was not the point.
>>107843169kys lying piece of shitfive seconds on Googlego back to eating trash. >durrr not the point> looks dated as fuck, didn’t have a real story and was a tech demo with a shitty plot bolted onyou ignored this because you are organic waste.
>>107843205>kys lying piece of shitlol fuck of back to RetardEra, troonie. I was there, and played the Crysis like 20fps on 1-core AMD CPU + 128MB Nvidia 6600GT at the time. It ran like ass compare to every other game, including STALKER that I could easily run at DX9 Full dynamic lighting, medium settings, 35-45fps average.My next rig got Core2duo + 8800GT 512, and that already allowed me to easily play those games at HD resolutions and higher settings.It's also cute that you're showing some literal evidence supporting my statements, while using widescreen resolutions that don't match your initial 5:4 claim.And yes, ~40fps WAS more than acceptable for SP games at the time, with next to no one crying about "muh 60fps!" just yet. Double so since the 7th gen consoles were struggling to even provide 30fps.>looks dated as fuckIt literally looks like it could've come out yesterday. And has amazing physics and gameplay to boot.>didn’t have a real storyBut it did. I don't know what you are smoking to even claim otherwise: Ayylmao crashlands on a S.Korean island, Norks take over, and kickstart a technological renaissance. Yanks in power suits try to interviene... and an alien invasion soon after.>was a tech demo with a shitty plot bolted onI guess you consider every single game that pushes tech forward, from DOOM to Super Mario 64, a "tech demo"?And congraz for AGAIN contradicting yourself. A "shitty plot" =/= "no plot". Name me 10 FPS games with a "better" story than this, and then remind me why would a story even matter in a shooter ?And now that this topic-switch attempt has been solved, we can return back to the OG topic:Yes, 8GB of VRAM on a modern mid-tier GPU is more than enough to run majority of all games smoothly. Extra so if you succumb to the DLSS / FSR / XeSS slop, but it's really only needed in UE5 shit.4K is a meme of its own; you either get a 2000€ video card to run games natively at that res (UE5 slop excluded), or use heavy upscaling.
>>107843294>essay to write how 40fps is fine Ok Ramesh. people had been playing Quake and UT at 100fps for years, and other games at 60fps+ like Far Cry, FEAR, PREY, Stalker etcYou are coping FUCKING hard. >but muh consolesfuck off blind ass consoletoddler jeet. > Name me 10 FPS games with a "better" story than this, and then remind me why would a story even matter in a shooter?Call of DutyCall of Duty 3Call of Duty Modern WarfareCall of Duty World at WarCall of Duty Modern Warfare 2Call of Duty Black OpsCall of Dury Modern Warfare 3Call of Duty Black Ops 2Battlefield Bad CompanyBattlefield Bad Company 2Battlefield 3Battlefield 4F.E.A.RSniper EliteSniper Elite 2Sniper Elite 3 Stalker Shadow of PripyatWolfenstein seriesHalf Life seriesDoom 2016Bioshock InfiniteMetro 2033If you need to ask why people like the story of Bioshock, Metro 2033, Sniper Elite, MW, MW2, Black Ops, Black Ops 2, Stalker, Bad Company 2, FEAR etc, you’ve missed about 20 years of culture and you should probably just kysYou sound like ACfag by the way.
>>107841137I don't think VRAM is an issue for most games 1440p, there's a few outliers for that. But 5060 would probably struggle more just with raster on 1440p ultra settings without upscaling.
>>107841137I have a 12GB 3060. I put a lot of stuff at 1080p still. I never use 1440p though, either 1080p or 4k. No fuzzy pixels thx.
>>107843464>people had been playing Quake and UT at 100fps for yearslol no we didn't.Many HC OG PC mustards shat bricks when their Radeon 9800 rigs couldn't run CS:S even at 30fps at release, making them go back to CS1.6 instead.>other games at 60fps+ like Far Cry, FEAR, PREY, Stalker etcLow settings at 640x480 is not an argument, kiddo.

Because (You) have never played a single STALKER vanilla game.And the point still stands:More than 60fps was unobtainium nor desirable for most PC gamers at the time on modest hardware, yet the evolution of PC tech was crazy fast in the 00s. The 8800GT was fucking insane for its price.>>107843567>you asked me for fps games with good stories, not specifically 2007 and beforeAnd most of them are exact same "Ancient evil awakens" or "an EVIL GUY in an EVIL NATION does SOMETHING EVIL! Action Man, please save the day!!"It's also funny how you try to push shit like BSI, THE worst Shock game of them all, there as well, while trying to fit into the cool kids' club with STALKER - which no one played for the story.Returning back to the OG topic now:8GB is more than plenty to play a huge majority of all vidya,and most 10+ yo AAA vidya looks and runs better than modern AAA slop.
