Dw guys, the 5060 Ti will have 16GB of vram on a 128bit memory bus. Vram problem solved once again!

Congrats dude!

Pre-built or not, it doesn't matter.

Congratulations on your new PC. I'm sure it will give you plenty hours of gaming.

Yep! After all, those extra 8GB did wonders for the 4060Ti and the 7600XT.

Nice upgrade.
Your old PC still has life left in it though... Upgrade that Ryzen 3600 to a 5800X3D and drop in a RTX 4070 and you would be hard pressed to tell the difference between both rigs.
Sell your old parts off to make up the difference.

While they struggle to effectively use that extra VRAM... There were instances where they didn't suffer texture degradation in games that stream textures to the GPU. I.E. Halo: Infinite.

The 4060/7600 should have been 12GB parts on a 192bit or 160bit bus.

Yeah, I really hope AMD's 8000 lineup is actually good enough to kick nVidia in the gut, since this is becoming just ridiculous.

I can't see how it would be that good, but I sure hope it's more competitive than the previous generations.

Sometimes half the fps of 16gb variant

I finally got my set up done.

The white one is my new gaming PC and the black one is the old one


(Also if you are wondering, its my Xbox Series X, Switch OG 2.0, Switch OLED and PS5 on the other side)

Edit: Gotta clean it up a bit , waiting for some things to come in like another HDMI Switch and longer HDMI cables and a multidisplay adapter so I dont have to keep unplugging and plugging cables between my two gaming desktops.

(If you are wondering, I'm gonna be using my new gaming rig for Steam gaming and my old gaming rig for emulation, older steam games, GOG and to record with my Elgato for my PS5, Switch and Xbox Series X).

Time to play some Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade finally :)!

Yes, there are edge cases where the extra capacity comes in handy, but in most situations that's not the case, with a difference between the 8 and 16Gb that barely goes beyond test run variance.

It's like the Intel's 285K, that actually does quite well in some very specific games, yet no one would recomend it for a gaming PC as the 7800X3D and the 9800X3D destroy in in all the other games.

And I agree, the bare minimum capacity for the xx60 and x600 part should have been 12GB. Let's hope this gen at least one of them makes the right call.

I mean... The 4060Ti 16GB here is $700 AUD, the 8GB variant is $560 AUD. The VRAM cutback over the 12GB 3060 was just cost saving measures to bolster profit, because lower prices were not passed onto the consumer anyway.

In the end, better off just getting the 7800XT 16GB for $720 if you were contemplating the 4060Ti 16GB.

But ironically there are people out there who would still buy the 4060Ti 16GB over the 7800XT 16GB because it's got "nVidia" slapped all over it, despite the 7800XT being a significantly better GPU.
