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.

Amd did the same they took a 5500 and gave it GDDR5 instead of GDDR6 but they called it 5300XT so there was no complains.

I didn't know that. Thanks.
