2005/2006 they would have probably said the same thing about the 8gb in those,

Not at all. Remember that's 8GB for both CPU and GPU; in 2006, gaming PCs had 2GB or even 4GB of RAM and 1GB of GPU memory. They could reasonably have forecasted that 4-8GB for the CPU and 1-2GB for the GPU would be needed.
