I remember there was a gamers nexus video were they complained about the GT 1030 going from GDDR5 to DDR4 because the performance difference was big and they said it sould have been called GT 1020.  

The GT 1030 case is well known, but it's an isolated case, not a norm. Usually all GPUs from a generation use the same kind of VRAM with the biggest difference being the speed of the modules.

That's why I wondered if it was still possible to use different kinds of memories without designing a new memory controller, or if it's something of the past.
