8GB VRAM is still the sticking point. In 2023, the bare minumum Nvidia and AMD should be using in their cards (in the 60 range) is 12GB. Current generation games already go over 8GB buffer and at $400.. its unacceptable. Heck even at $300, its bad.
Idd the price is the issue and also naming shennanigans. Nvidia got called out for it for the 4070Ti, previously 4080 12GB. But people have gotten tired of all the bs, including reviewers. Price is still way off the mark but at least AMD are steadily dropping prices to what the market is willing to spend.
I do think they could've gotten much more performance for the base 4060Ti by giving it 12GB and a 192 bit bus. And that would've been a way more enticing GPU for the mainstream. Especially if Nvidia wants to charge $400+ for it. Rn though its like you said its a 4050, and even less savvy people can probably guess even without watching/reading any reviews that its going to be meh graphics card for the price, and generally a bad 60 tier product. Where this used to be the best bang for buck and nearly always match the previous generation's 80 class cards prior.
