And here I am with 8GBs in 2024 lol

The industry as a whole has really dragged ass on VRAM. Obviously it keeps their margins higher, but for a card targeting anything over 1080, 16GB should be mandatory.

Hell, with 8GB you can run out of VRAM even on 1080, depending on what you play (e.g. flight sims).

That's why I avoided the 4060s and stuck to my 1060 for now
