You bought a 24GB/32GB/48GB graphics processing unit to futureproof yourself, right anon? You didn't buy a peasant tier 12GB or 16GB card from 10 years ago? I seriously hope you didn't fall for GamersNexus memeing you into how the 30/40 series flagships were not worth the money, or how the 50 series should not be bought under any circumstance?

I have (2) RTx 3090s
I have (3) RTx 3090 tis
I have 2 RTX 3060
I have 1 RTX 3080ti
I have 1 RTX 4080S
I have 1 RTX 3060ti


I have zero AMDgpu shit unless you count my two Ryzen 7 5700G APUs which are actually quite decent paired with my fast DDR4 4000 CL14.


Honestly, Ampere has been more than enough for me.

I have a 4060 laptop but since I mostly play GameCube/PS2/3/360 and older games it's overkill

>VRAM
Running out of VRAM has never been the issue. You will still replace your flagship card in 10 years because despite having a decent chunk of VRAM, the actual processors themselves are incapable of handling the workloads of the future in an expedient manner.

The next gen of games will only run on servers and you will pay a subscription

Poor support from evolving standards too. I got rid of my 980 because it basically lost all support except for basic driver stuff.

bought prebuilt with 5070 12gb, because I realized that I don't do anything with pc anymore and my kids mostly play hytale with it. I just lurk here because I can't leave
>>
I have a 5080 and I've played one game it couldn't max out and that was Cyberpunk, a bullshit tech demo game that's still benchmarked because it's trying to ray trace a city on the cdred engine.
>local models
Image generation is slop, and no consumer GPU has enough vram for a text model that's any good.

>>107995187
kek this was the funniest shit nvidia pulled $1999 3090ti just to release the 4090 (massively better) for $1599 6 months later.

>and no consumer GPU has enough vram for a text model that's any good
There are no GPUs period that have enough VRAM for large text models. If you have the money, you build a $200,000 cluster and use model sharding. If you don't have that kind of money, you just use memory mapping + tensor offloading. You can run a massive 140GB+ model with 4GB of VRAM so long as your GPU is actually compatible with the APIs involved.
>But it reduces performance
Oh no, it goes from 0.8 t/s to 0.3 t/s. The horror.

Although if we keep OP's logic, only a fool or a poor man wouldn't have a 16x cluster of A100s making the whole point moot.

>>107993761
yea, 2x 3090
>>
>>107993761
I built a brand new rig right before all the prices went retarded. 9950X3D Nvidia 5090 and 64gb ram. Should be set for a while.

got my 4080 in 2022 for cheap
looking back at it with the 4080s and 5080 performwnce i thing it was not a bad buy and sinze nothing will come out till end of 2027 it needs to last

>>107993761
I just went from a 580 to a 9060xt 16 gb and only because my old pc exploded (psu gave out, took every single component with it into the grave).
Wouldn't even have bothered with a 16 gb card if my local store hadn't offered me one on sale for €329 which was the same as the 8gb cards in stock.
