I may have a play around with it if I ever get it, but I'm not buying it purely for an argument.

10GB vram enough for the 3080? Discuss..

The 3080 is like the gift that keeps giving.Didn't realise 'playing' a stress loop bench was a thing or so much fun. Bit like benching.
Meanwhile, the DL2 results sees a 3080 pulling the pants down on a 6900XT. Sold prices on the auction site - pick up a 3090 for £700
What are 3080's selling for? .........................................£600

I'm all strapped in to my seat on the roundabout...
Must be fake news

One game Bill.
No need to, was already debunked as well
Yup because they are struggling so bad aren't they....
MS Flight Simulator (2020): the 2021 PC graphics performance benchmark review
Welcome aboard Guru3D airlines, after an amazing start of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, we decided to look at the sim again in 2021 in our PC graphics performance and PC gamer way. Surely a lot of ... Game performance 3840x2160 (Ultra HD)www.guru3d.com
Come on tommy, thought you would have learnt by now where, when and how you encounter some actual proper vram issues
@TNA
Have you tried this with your measly 8GB 3070 yet?
Have you got footage showing your issues? If so, I can reinstall and use same settings/res. and area to see if it happens on my end.

The Devs did say they were trying to reduce vram usage...
I suppose technically you could cross reference and compare 2 yr old builds against the newest updates just for the craic though.
Generally as games get more updates, they run better, not the other way around and if anything, this will definitely run better now given it has dlss, which iirc is stated as being better than native/TAA so no reason to not use it.
If you can upload or find some recent footage, go ahead and post it:

'If you can upload or find some recent footage', so you don't have a clue then.
Here we are yet again, make claims and nothing to post to backup said claims, not see the problem yet dear boy
Again, it's very easy, let me demonstrate once again for you:hey guys, I'm having an issue with lack of vram, see my footage below, this happens when I add several 4-8k texture packs, without them, the game runs fine with none of those fps/frame latency issues:
How hard is that?
EDIT:
Also, when you say "trying to reduce vram" usage, you mean to say that they are aiming to fix "issues" with memory leaks? As most of us understand by now or I would like to think so.... bit of a difference between an "issue" and a situation where more vram is "needed"
Or have you got a link to the bit where the developers specifically said they were aiming to reduce vram usage?

If you have an internet connection then your game will likely be updated to the most recent version.
A guy with a 3090 here was getting maxed out 24GB of Vram usage on COD Warzone, I decided to max the game out on my 3070 and whilst my Vram was pretty high (Not maxed) I was getting seriously high FPS too even with RayTracing on at 4K res.
Gave me an excuse to try this game out I guess.
We never resolved his high Vram usage.
These videos were done to see what the issue was.

I can field this one.
Warzone will use as much video memory as you want it to. There's a setting in a config file that dictates a % of how much video memory is used. It can go anywhere from 50%-100% if you do desire.
As to how much the game actually requires at 4K max settings, not much. 12GB is more than enough, and possibly even 8GB might be enough.
Also, Warzone does not support Ray Tracing despite having an option to turn it on. It does nothing. It only works in Modern Warfare campaign and adds very little to the IQ.

Far Cry 6 though.Excellent debunking @LtMatt
8GB is enough unless you want 4K textures which from images make a tiny difference.

I ran out of Vram in Resident Evil 2 with RT too but I was pushing stupid settings too like 175% render scale on top of 2560x1440 native res and maxed out RT.Say's that on the instructions though mate!

Its only a couple who choose to pretend it doesn't exist. RE2 is another but there's always that one guy who mentions its one game. Maths 1+1 = 1 I guess.
Yes because one comment with nothing to backup the claim vs several sources showing quite the opposite = goalposts, never stop being gullible
If tommy can find more up to date footage then I would love to see if the game has somehow got worse over time since 2020 but alas, unless my google/youtube skills are failing me, there isn't anything "recently" to show this hence the ask for a link to such sources, once I complete a few games and can free up space, I'll reinstall and test myself.
Apparently the "3080 ***** itself" in RE 2 remake but from my experience, I didn't experience that at all:
I do remember DF video though:
Maybe 6800xt needs more vram

And yet, we are still waiting for all these games you keep listing to be posted with evidence showing the issues i.e. forza 5, godfall, re village, doom eternal etc. Providing evidence isn't your strong point it seems but keep on with the broken record of "it's just 1 game"
So far the only "somewhat" valid ones we have had are:
- itrons VR 8k headset or whatever and on one map of DCS in a particular scene, however, that argument was then kind of made redundant when he went on to say even a 3090 couldn't cope that scene and the same settings i.e. lack of grunt
- my cp footage when using several 4-8k texture packs
- chron. ffv 5 or whatever one it was, although iirc, with some messing in backend files, he got the issues sorted?
- fc 6 for some people under certain conditions i.e. max settings with max rt @ 4k with no fsr (but as per throughout this thread, several other sites didn't pick up on it, including hub, yet they had it on their 3070 vs 6700 video and myself didn't have the issue unless I enabled rebar or/and only in the benchmark, not gameplay), that and when you look at a 6800xt, it gets similar fps as my 3080 was i.e. 40-50s hence FSR has to be enabled regardless of vram on the 6800xt
Anything else?

Arguments on both sides are valid, I am not missing anything not using 4K textures in FC6 and I am way above rational limits pushing stupid settings in RE2 with a GPU not made for 5K gaming.Yes because one comment with nothing to backup the claim vs several sources showing quite the opposite = goalposts, never stop being gullible

But you can argue that we are close to the limits vs Radeon, but it's kind of a silly dance because well the Nvidia cards just have more grunt where it matters too, RT.
They have better upscaling tech too.
For the only Pro the Radeon has which is Vram they only have raster performance which is mostly wasted for many people as they are not on high refresh rate screens or at 4K.
And yes the Radeon owners do want RT and they want it badly but instead of admittance, they delude themselves.
I prefer straight shooters saying, I can't afford it or the card choice gives me a better option. for 4K a 6950XT is a monster, yes we could just buy a 3090Ti but I disagree with the price difference between the 3090 series and the 6900 series, the rest of the stack from both though are more in line.
