Do PC gamers feel 12GB of VRAM is simply not enough for the money in 2024?

    Why people no buy our GPU anymore?

    Because I can get a whole fucking console for the price of a lower midrange GPU. My only hope is Intel’s Battlemage at this point.

      yeah but then you have to play a console without mods or cheap games

      try buying a used GPU and game on 1080p monitor and you’ll be able to have great graphics without a lot of money

      I will hold onto my $700 3080 until it spits fire, cannot believe I was lucky enough to get it at launch.

        I have an all-AMD system, but they have become too expensive as well. Just Nvidia with a 20% discount, safe for the 7900 XTX which is completely out of question for me to begin with.

          Cheaper Nvidia ain’t bad. This is coming from someone that uses a 3080Ti and refuses to use AMD GPUs because of shit way in the past. I use their processors though, those are amazing i just wish they had support for thunderbolt.

            Does Intel allow AMD to license thunderbolt? USB might be better in the long term to support.

      Yeah I’m still running GTX970 since the GPU prices went zongers right after buying this. Last generation with decent performance price balance.

      Fuck the market. I’ll just stick with this one until it dies on me.
