Nvidia would rather kill their gaming division than sell a 12GB vram GPU for $259, that's for sure. But keep in mind it's still a rumour price. |
We almost got that with the 3060 and its 12GB, but then Nvidia decided that "poor" gamers didn't deserve that much VRAM.
The question, tho, is how will this card perform. The A580 was, sometimes, around the 3060, at a time when the 4060 was already out. Let's hope for the sake of Intel (and ours) that this one not beats the 4060, but it can also get close to the 5060 and AMD's 8700 AND doesn't suffer from terrible launch drivers.

So Nvidia will lock it behind a firmware, a firmware that, during the worst days of crypto mining, was proven to be only a temporal barrier. I don't it will go well.

Perhaps it's to do with developers needing time to cook but man, I haven't seen so many games stutter on PC in the previous generations due to shader comp. And with so many big profile games using it, I hope they can figure it out before release. |
The bigest problem is that UE4 already suffered from stuttering, but Epic decided to not fix that when developing UE5, because that doens't sell the engine, but prettier graphics and other bells and whistles do.
Heck, even Fortnite has to deal with stuttering, proving that even they don't know how to fix their damned thing.
Please excuse my bad English.
