Why are there so many bad Nvidia cards? Even Nvidia themselves know 8GB of vram is a problem. If it wasn't why would there be a 16GB version of the 5060 ti you have to pay more for?

8 GB is fine for gamers. 16 GB is directed purely at the AI community.

maybe they are not all bad i have had multiple times issues seating gpu to socket

This. 5060ti can't do shit in games with the 16gb. That's why they discontinued it.
>>
>>108232955
VRAM is so artificially restricted it's so fucking gay. Nvidia could make those consumer cards double or triple the VRAM they have now for no increased cost but they won't because money

Lolno, modern slop can't even run at 1080p with 8GB
>>
>>108232955
Why waste any RAM on "gamers" when they can get $10,000+ selling it to datacenters?
>>

no

>>108232955
This is a company that sells 12GB cards for $1000+ while the competition sells 16GB cards for under $400 (AMD), and 12GB cards for $250 (Intel).

>Ai
Yeah, right, for bullshit models maybe, my models require 90gb+
>>
>>108232984

Wrong.
Most games I play today are using 10+ GB of vram at 1440p.
>inb4 noooo don't play modern slop reee
>>
All that whining about the 5060ti 16gb and it turned out to be the best option for poorfags
>>
>>108234426

That would be the 16GB 9060XT.
>>
>>108234337
Bbf, modern tripple gay tittles are slop as fuck

My laptop came with 4080 16gb, I'm fine.
>>
>>108234432
You could get 5060's for the same or cheaper during sales back before the AI panic pricing/buying set in.
But yeah for the impatient AMD was/is the obvious route.

>>108232984
its not at all skyrim with a few texture mods can use well above 8gb, its actually what made me stop buying low/midrange cards years ago i needed the vram kek
>>
>>108234432
Yeah but the niggas only want nvidia
>>108234571
Not talking about laptop niggas but good for you. What model was it anyway

Based. Gamers who think they need more than 8gb have been conditioned by (((studios))) into accepting the absolute shart slop of modern titles.
>>
>>108232984
what a retarded take, 8 gb is the minimum nowdays
>t. had to upgrade from my 4gb
>>
>>108232955
Their cards have very small silicon for how well they perform so they're really good (profitable) products. Those lowend chips only have 8gb as a base since they're only equipped with dual channel or a 128bit bus which makes them pretty cheap to massively produce and profitmaxx
>>
>>108232955
There is nothing wrong with 8 GB of vram and 16 or 20gb won't save you from jet programmers.
Stop paying to solve for lack of optimization.
If you pay they will hire more idiots games aren't improving because you keep paying and they can hire cheap labour.

5060 8GB is acceptable for 1080p gaming when compared to 16GB. If you feel like you need higher resolutions plus all the PT + FG slop then you'll run out of memory.
>>
>>108236975
just don't look at the 3fps 1% lows of the 8gb card and everything is totally acceptable goyim

lol
it's literally within fifty bucks of the 9070 now
and that card can be flashed to an xt bios and undervolted to completely demolish the 5060ti
plus, if you're planning to put it in an older board with pcie 3 it'll lose performance due to its shitty x8 pcie lane setup

I have a 16gb 9070xt and I play at 4k (with upscaling if im playing modern slop) and I think the most vram usage ive seen is about 10gb. I dont really play UE5 games or heavy modded games though. Ive heard people say 16gb+ is future proofing but by the time I need that much vram id probably want a new gpu to even get decent fps, I think 12gb is enough for most people right now
