In this specific context of buying GPU's and being able to game how I like then yes, you are correct. Value is always relative.Well as long as you are happy, that's all that matters

Just saw this, @Besty you were right about the 4070 TI choking at 4K.
Soldato
Better get upgrading your 3090 too @Purgatory unless you're happy with 33 fps
Hopefully the patch due or/and game drivers sort it, 12gb should be plenty, it's a great looking game but I haven't seen anything to justify the high vram usage.
Just goes to further show though, the only gpu worthy of getting this gen round is the 4090
Soldato
This makes no sense. The 4080 is at 70 fps and the 3090 at 33? HOW? Suddenly the 4080 is more than twice as fast? There is something fishy with his testing
Caporegime
I will assume its due to frame generation not working on the 3090. I can't imagine 60-70 FPS feeing too good if FG in Cyberpunk is anything to go by.

He said in his tweet both run under the same conditions.
Anyways, at least according to the comments, it appears the game has a memory leak problem, people with the 3090 report running out of memory.

The usual a little bit amd biased hwunboxed.. Does it's competitor, the 16gb 6800xt do better with RT on? I mean come on...
Caporegime
He's not tested the AMD cards yet he said in another tweet. Looks like there is going to be a video so I'm sure we will see the full picture soon.

That sinking feeling when you pay £800+ for a 4070ti and it runs out of vram in the latest game. **** Jensen. Amd aint your freind but at least they aint stingy with vram.
Soldato
Oh.
Dont be so mean, this never happened befo... It was only one game (or was it)?
Didnt I recently link and timestamp a previous HU video a week ago where he said "heaps" of games??

Oh no poor Nexus!
Cards with less than 16gb vram getting destroyed, it's a lovely sight

Lets for the sake of argument agree that its totally a vram issue and it has nothing to do with the game and it cant get fixed by patches etc
You drop textures from ultra to high and... Voila. Now you are going to argue that you don't want to spend 900 euros on a card and have to drop settings. Well tough luck even with a 4090, undoubtedly by far the fastest card on the planet, you HAVE to drop settings at some games. Cyberpunk is literally unplayable without dlss for example. So whats the issue? You think the 7900xt with its 16gb is going to be playing the game maxed out just fine?
I mean regardless of the vram issue, the game is running at 33fps on a 3090 and 40 FPS on a 4070ti. You will have to activate dlss and or drop settings to make it playable, so vram usage will also drop

It might be more RT related than textures in this case. RT can require a lot of VRAM also. We'll see when the HUB video and others come out I guess.

Maybe but still the game needs dlss on both the 3090 and the 4070ti, because regardless of vram, it performs like crap anyways. I mean the 3090 has 24gb, are you going to play the game at 33 fps?
Thats why i always thought the vram complaints were always childish. Vram never was and never will be the reason you upgrade a card, cause always it will be something else that tanks your perfornance before that (at settings you would actually play the game)
Soldato
Odd to dismiss memory when they are so fond of ray tracing dont you think? Probably has a 4080 but hasnt declared it I reckon.
Soldato
So the 6800xt with its 16gb is gonna be a baller at 4k rt ultra? Is that what you are saying?
