Your videos are definitely helpful for learning more about computer components and being able to make informed decisions about what hardware to purchase!
I remember when $500 would buy you the top of the line card, period.
I understand the problem with price increase due to shortage but saying things like 'I remember when things were so cheap' is misleading as hell. Because those graphics cards then could not run games at 4k, or even 1440p high refresh rate, even though monitors existed.
So basically what you saying is you remember when the high end were cheap but also couldn't actually keep up with the display hardware anyway.
@@jyotshak What? high end cards have always been able to keep up with the display hardware of the time. You are the type of person marketing departments love. Seeing no problem with a higher price point because the tech is more powerful than previous generations. Thankfully not every one feels that way and manufactures generally need to keep prices relatively down to stay competitive even as tech improves. But you will always have some consumers willing to pay outrageous prices for the newest and best top end tech so you will always have a tech top with diminishing returns when it comes to the price vs more powerful tech .
Damn 10 series was 5 years ago now
@@alexoelkers2292 3070 and 3080 at their fake MSRP are a great value, better than 20 series. And ofc things will go up in price. Whether it's more expensive materials, more materials, or just inflation. Though the 30 series didn't even go up compared to 20 except the 3090 but that card is irrelevant for gaming.
Who u tellin smh
'in stock' memory is what I need
I just bought a 3090 prebuilt because 3080s were impossible to get atm.
Won‘t happen anytime soon 😢
"In stock, but not 2-3 times the msrp" is what i need
👍
I was in the queue for a 3080 for 10 months, then was like... f'ck this, I'll get a 3080ti...
Definitely time to revisit this. I watched this and felt a little silly for getting in the EVGA queue for a 12gb 3060 (which I did eventually get), but now I'm so glad I did. Hopefully it will last me until Nvidia gets the memo about VRAM.
The 3060 outperforming the 3070 on Resident Evil 4 is definitely one of the moments of all time
I'll just wait for the 5000 series if they don't fix their VRAM I'll switch to team red
I have 8gb of vram and that already feels low on some titles 🫠
@@yol_n if u cant wait for new generations then go for old my original plan was to get rig strix 3070 but now I will get rog strix 2080ti as they have same performance and the 2080ti is actually cheaper so I can invest that extra in a powersupply upgrade or a cpu upgrade and the only reason is becuase the 2080ti has 11gb of vram which is very nice compared to 8gb.
@@chills5100 might be a better idea to grab the 3080 or 3080ti instead of the 2080ti
I feel silly troo for having 24gb vram with 7900XTX, but probably I will thank myself in the future for waiting one more generation of GPUs before changing it
Great analogy for BUS width versus vRAM. That's why I waited for the 3080 Ti for the price difference.
Red Dead Redemption 2 on maximum settings uses just under 11 GB while running 200+ FPS (so Precision X1 claims) with 5120 x 1440p @ 240 Hz.

Yeah its weird, some times, my friend with a 1080 is struggling to up the view distance while my 3060 is doing fine.
Of course the 1080 is still more powerful, but I never imagined the ram being the bottleneck on it.

@@FireWizardGg I don't think you understood. We are not talking about processing power.
We are talking about the extremely poor methods of optimization, combined with LARGE maps and very high view distances causing your VRAM to fill up. Slowing down your experience, even if you have a good gpu.
1080 has less Vram than a stock 3060 with 12gb. Even though 3060 can't process as fast, 1080 struggles on big maps due to it maxing out it's Vram.

probably rocks with blender ;) I held out for the last couple plus years waiting for the 30 series. Still waiting with the price increase and availability. I was hoping it would come back down to reality. Now the 40 series seems like it will be maybe next year with their marketing trying to soak up money from the most dedicated gear junky lol
Been following the prices the last few months... Likely I'll just grab the 3070 EVGA or ASUS or Gigabyte and skip the 40 series... I'm not wanting to spend more than $500 really.

When you shop for thirty series in stock, the forties will be fresh out of stock.
And this will most likely be true and with crypto continuing to grow its likely we won't see decent stock for a long time unless something is done
Meh, 1 generation behind current has been my motto for the past 15 years. It's stupid to pay 2-3x for a measly 30% improvement, and that's even without the scalpers tripling the price again. Dummies can pay $2000-$3000 for a 4000-series from a scalper if they want. I'll be slapping a waterblock on a used 3080 I'll prob get for $600-700 and only lose maybe 20-30% performance (not noticable without benchmarks = good enough) over a 4080 (die shrinks are getting less effective and less often in case anyone hasn't noticed).

2 years later and 8GB is starting to show its age.
12GB is the minimum right? if you want good gaming experience @ 1440p
Clear explanation with good examples. Definitely one of the best explanations on RUclips.
I've been playing on a console all my life. I just built my first PC, wanted to do it for a long time. I spent a lot of money on the specs hoping I don't have to upgrade it in a long time. I managed to buy the new RX 6800 xt with 16gb Vram. Hopefully it lasts me at least 5 years haha. So far loving it and the PC experience. Everything Is so much smoother.
As far as video memory goes you should be good for a long time.
holy fucking mackerel
If you don't mind turning down a few settings later down the line (much later, you'll breeze through max settings for probably a minimum of 2 years of new games, if not more) it should easily make it to the 5-year mark if my aging GTX 980ti (released in 2015) is any indicator. I can still run games that just came out (except Cyberpunk 2077 and Assassin's Creed: Valhalla, though they are still playable at low/medium settings) at a mixture of high and medium settings just fine at 1080p, and I'm sure it'd do fine at 1440p too if I turned down a few more settings. I'm sure you'll love being on PC. I switched back during the PS3 era when the PS4 was being announced because I refused to pay a subscription to play online. That was definitely one of the best decisions I've made, I haven't looked back and probably never will.
I mean gddr6 has been out for over 3 years now. In another year and a half we’re gonna hopefully have another new generation of faster memory. By the time the new cards come out your memory is already 5+ years old and if games keep getting more visually intensive. Doubt your card will last you 5 years. The extra memory is a marketing gimmick for amd since they are using last gen memory.
@@sekcgamer7623 this is nonsense. It will easily last 5 years just not at the highest settings and not at 4k

@@reignman40boozer5
It's only going to be a problem when those in power want it to be.
In Borderlands 3, I noticed a massive jump in memory usage going from Direct X 11 to 12. Not sure which version you were using.
Resident Evil 2 and 3 Remake can be really VRAM demanding depending on the settings you choose. It gives you an indicator in the settings on how much VRAM it's gonna use as you change settings, so it would be interresting to see if it really takes all the VRAM it says it does.
I was JUST going to comment about this!
This video didn't really take into account the new gen consoles having like 12GB of VRAM and if we count PC optimization + future proofing a 16GB/20GB card is pretty fine indeed.

Very helpful for me Jay. I'm about to purchase a GPU and as a novice PC gamer i was unsure of the difference in Vram from one type to another and why one was lower and another was higher. Bitrate/framerate make a difference. Thanks again for your channel. I'm learning so much
How much GPU Memory do you need?
Deep Learning Engineers: YES
Things did not change in just 2 years. Even in 2020, VRAM matters more than people (reviewers) thought. Games like Cyberpunk, Control, and some others already have problems with 8GB VRAM, things like fps drops, lowres textures, stutter, etc. However, reviewers did not realize this problem, because they typically only play games for a brief moment for benchmark and that's it. These memory issues only appear later on, after a prolonged play session as the memory pool gets more and more saturated.
BINGO
And people still defend 4080 with *16 GB of VRAM is good enough*. Yes, is enough today, we don't know next year , when you pay fucking over 1000$ for a card, you don't want to get bottlenecked by VRAM for at least 5 years. I don't use softwares requiring nvidia, I don't use RT and I don't need DLSS at 1440p. Therefore , 7900XTX made more sense for me to be safe . + amd ages better as their cards get better optimised in time

@@stevebalmer8888 1060 6GB is the most popular GPU actually
Also you should talk about how with VRAM it’s a good rule of thumb to have at-least 2x your VRAM in system memory as it appears many game engines or graphics drivers use a working set is system memory that’s similar in size to the currently utilized VRAM.
man you have a great channel! wow! thank you for the info with visuals!
The Vram is good to keep in mind, but for some titles, the 3D Graphic ussage is relevant too. Take for example Warhammer 3. I have a GTX 1660 Ti whit 6G of Vram. I lowered all the settings to about 4 point under optimal in Geforce Experience and reduced the frame rates to 28 from Nvidia Control Pannel. The end result was that the 3D was about 90% which was under 100%. On the other hand, with the same sistem, Warhammer 2, the prevoius title, was using all the 6G of Vram on the default Ultra graphics setting and it looked like it was not enough, reaching 70 fps on its default game benchmark. If I am to run Warhammer 3 on ultra, I do not think 6G of Vram will cut it, I do not remember it, yet I remember the GPU reaching temperatures of 90 degrees which were definitely above 85 degrees. I am curious how demanding will Warhammer 3 be when the Immortal Empire cames out, I doubt 8G of Vram will be enough, the cooling archotecture must be over the top and the 3D Graphics will probabily push the temperature over the 85 degrees as well. My GPU usually sits at 60 degrees and when not used, at under or aroumd 40. Those 3D Graphics are killing it.
I just bought a SH 1060 Ti and I am more than happy with it.
You can run the game in high and lower the lightning effects.
I am more then sure I will be ok with my card, I don't need to see the blood stained hair on the arms of burly Kislevites. 😁
The amount of redundancy is ridiculous .
90% which was under 100%. Then you reaching 90 degrees which was definitely more than 85 😭
Yea, Ultra isn't a recommended setting. That's an easy way to cripple things with diminishing returns from the high setting. I got the 3060ti 8gb and WH3 is no problemo and running at a normal temp. The memory bus is also 256 bit which is damn good. You could have an airflow issue with case like not enough exhaust. Also the 1660ti may not be enough for the recommended GPU with that title anyway. I'd probably double check system specs for WH3 first.

Very useful and insightful video! THank you!
Great video. As a content creator, several OTHER factors apply: the better the textures are baked into the game, the easier the game load. And as a Maya/Max user, the more vram u have the larger/more complex geometry and textures you can load/render. Hence why Quadro cards routinely have double the vram of the GeForce/RTX line of consumer gaming cards.
In scientific compute you need even more. Ever since I played with 512GB VRAM across 8 MI200, I can't go back.

Helpful to know, I game on a 1440p and just got a rx 6800 xt, 16 gb did seem a bit overkill. One thing no body talks about is that it's not just new but all gpu's that are crazy expensive. I paid $1400 for the 6800xt, but only because I traded a 5700 challenger I paid $350 for new. For a Vega 56 and a 8 gb 580. I sold them for $800 and $550 respectively... So I upgraded for $50 out of pocket. That's been my best upgrade for the least amount of cost. Not bad...
Had a 3060ti FE traded for a 3070FE Then traded that to some miner for a brand new EVGA 3070ti FTW3. This market really has us out here being creative lol.
Color me jealous. 😉😁
Actually, you paid 1400 - 1350 reselling price of both cards + (original Vega price + original 580 price). The reselling isn't just "clean" money, you got to subtract what you bought them for.

with all of the photo processing and video editing programs starting to incorporate Ai, what size GPU or how much GPU memory would you think would be ideal for that scenario?
One important point, the vram displayed in lot games is just the amount allocated not utilisation
but you cant utilize more than is alocated :)
Mind blown 🔥🤣
It kinda makes sense. When you load a level, all assets and textures of that level are calculated and space for them is allocated, but the game still streams in data during gameplay as you progress through the level, mostly for LOD management.

If your using a 1050 I doubt you will be able to afford 80 series card. By the time the 4000 series comes around I would bet we will see the msrp at 600 or 700. Nvidia has a way of making you pay more than you should and AMD just follows in their footsteps.
I feel you, was going to upgrade my 770 2gb, looks like that's not happening for at least a year
Warzone got an update a few months back that increased the minimum VRAM to 3GB. Anything less and you'll get constant crashes.
I’m almost tired of watching these GPU reviews and videos, because a tear runs down my face every time. #2021
Update: I cant do this anymore

What about MSFS 2020? It is known to use a lot of VRAM.
Especially at higher resolutions.
Who tf plays that though really

I now have 2 30 series cards. Extremely lucky to have found them near msrp 3060 evga xc and an auros 3070 ti master edition. The extra vram allows me to pump settings to max in 4k but the 3060 stillnisnt fast enough anyway. 3070ti turn down one setting to reach Vram limit no visual difference but twice as fast
Would you recommend 3070 over 3060 on 1440p gaming? please help
@@chamikakavishan5060 3070 is better but the 3060 is still good

I recently upgraded to an RTX 2060 with 6gb VRAM and I’ve noticed Dishonored 2 is quite the VRAM hog, to the point where after playing through a level, I sometimes start experiencing the bad stutter and then a crash to desktop. Thing is, the game runs beautifully for a time, but it seems as I explore a level, VRAM slowly climbs, and it doesn’t garbage collect. All that said, I have textures on ‘Ultra’ in-game, so I’m going to fiddle with lowering a few settings and keep monitoring VRAM. Thanks for this video!
I think what you describe is a memory leak.
@@cuthalionbeleg1267 Indeed very possibly. Lowering the textures from the 'Ultra' setting seemed to fix for me; I didn't have any problems after changing that at least.
Can you do an update to this with how much 8gb of vram has suffered in the latest games?
“People upgrade every 4-5 years” 12GB may not be important now, but what about over the next 4-5 years?
"How much Nvidia is going to fuck this 12GB up in next 4-5 years?"
probably not at all
remember, all hardware made two gens ago can run almost any game at medium at 1080p
thats by design since no one with a brain wants to leave money on the table. and devving for high end hardware and leaving 80% of the market not even capable of running your game is doing just that
12GB? That's plenty. Even for 4k. 8GB? That's not enough. You literally got that amount 5 years ago and is one reason why pascal has aged well. The 10gb of VRAM on the 3080 was a difficult choice for Nvidia to make. Since there are no 1.5gb modules, it was either 10 or 20gb. That's about an extra $150. Is it worth it? Difficult to say as Nvidia will correct that issue with a 3080ti at some point in the future.
yeah not really happy about losing a GB uppgrading from a 1080ti to a 3080... Now its fine. But I Normally skip a gen. Atleast im at 1440p. its something.
Yeah I sure was happy about getting a 390 instead of a 970 because of the vram but after my 390 died at 3 years old I got a 1070. They both have 8 gigs and now after having the 1070 for two years vram still has not been an issue. My guess is that 12 gigs will do fine in 5 years. 10 might not.
A little surprised to see the RE remakes took a massive chunk of V ram on the higher shadow settings.
it is "next year" now and i needed this video. the VRAM sizes in the 30 series are really weird.
I love seeing this videos I don’t even own a Gaming PC but I see them anyway
"3gb would absolutely not cut it!" *me glaring at me 1gb card*
The 3.5 being claimed as 4gb was a ngreedia scam
@@shadowopsairman1583 what about GTX 690 advertised as 4gb when in reality it's 2gb because vram does not stack in dual GPU card. My next card is going to be from team red.

Jay : “After nVidia reach out ...”
After your “salty” opinion piece about the 3060, I BET they reached out!!! Please don’t knuckle under to their pressure. Keep your videos honest AND salty. This whole GPU generation so called release is totally f’ed up and most of us are going to skip it. If we can’t get it, it is irrelevant.
Got mine. had to line for 3 months though.
@@aheenobarbushenocied9880 got a 3060 ti on launch day online

I like the technical explanation why, instead of just opinion. But I'm upgrading from a 1070 oc 8gb, why is the 3060 ti 8gb not 12?? but he didn't answer that.
@@roknroller6052 well you don’t really need 12 GB in a gpu if you are just gaming. Games won’t even use but about 4 GB even with dlss ramped up (I’ve got the 3060 ti and the most ever used was 5 GB with metro exodus)
Great info, thanks! Love the tires in the background. What do they go on?
So around 2017 I bought my pc from ibuypower and it was slightly customizable prebuilt. I was still new to pc gaming and kinda fell into the prebuilt trap. It was advertised as a 1060 build so I was happy to have that. I went ahead and upped the CPU to a I7 7700k, The RAM to 16gb and added a 250gb ssd. Well once I got the computer I noticed how small the GPU was. I was new so I didn't really think to much about it. Well after a few month I found out the GPU was one of the cheapest 1060s at the time, It was a MSI mini 1060 3gb. I soon found out that 3gb on my card wasn't great for newer title... I feel like the 3gb GPUs were made to trick people new to PC gaming and I was one of the suckers. lol It scared me from buying PC part until I finally put the time in to learn what I was doing. Luckily I mainly pay indie game games and that card can actually handle most of them.
on the plus-side you probably know much more now 👍 I've been building my PCs since the 90's after our first family-PC that was pre-built. you can get a gaming PC that lasts for 7 years for about 1000€ if you don't need the absolute highest settings. lately I've slipped a bit and paid about 1400€ for my latest (monitor included), but it should last for another seven years easy @2K (no need for RT). I "recycled" my 1000w PSU, SSDs, mobo, 360 AIO and the case.
Can we all take a moment to appreciate how simple yet gorgeous that 2060 looks
Agreed. I didn't really like the design when it came out, but it's grown on me. But the sexiest GPU thus far imo is Nvidia's Quadro RTX A6000 with that shiny plastic/piano black finish. So simple, but so elegant.
3000 cards are better
@@jayhardline7557 cap 2060 and the 2060 super white looks so good
my rtx 4070 is sexier
30 series look much better. If i could chose i'd get a 3080 FE.
24GB GDDR6X seems like a good amount of GPU memory...
Nah not enough
Need 48 with a nvlink
Yeah 24GB Vram is amazing :P
As someone with a 3090. Can confirm
Ampere A100 seems ample for my ms paint.
As someone who games in QHD/2K/1440p but turns all the bells and whistles to the max, I went with an RTX 3060 12GB. Every game I play comes nowhere near the limit, but I still appreciate extra headroom.
what cpu do you use?
@@blendedtime8162 Intel Core i5.
Here is a question for you: would the 12GB get better use with say video editors, such as Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve? I would like to think so, but realistically my guess is that it's more about the cuda cores for video encoding. I would like to hope that those who make the video editors would load as many video clips into VRAM, so you don't have to make proxy clips. Would you do a video showing how much VRAM the top video editors use?
Tbh the graphics card should be at the lower end of your thought process for editing. You need a great CPU and fucktons of ram first. The Graphics card mostly is not utilized while Editing, except you talk 3d stuff. I would know, I can edit 60 FPS FHD Videos on an AMD Radeon RX Vega 11 implemented GPU. I don't even have an external one. Truth be told, it comes with me needing to use Proxy clips, but you get the Point.
@@Bossfightmedia I can see that, and agree. So this is just a curiosity question. I have a video transcoder, to convert Blu-ray video to mp4. Having all those cuda cores really reduces the time needed. From about 8hrs per blu-ray to 1hr. So, I can image a great video card helping alot.
