Nvidia recognises 10gb isn't enough - RTX3080 gets a VRAM upgrade

As I explained. Resale would be easier…Wouldn't get any. By your admission the 3070 copes fine.. so just stick with it and sell on when 40 stuff hits.
Also may turn out to be a free upgrade if I make a profit on the sale of my 3070, just depends who I sell it to, if a family member naturally won’t make a profit.
Hahahaha
But Far Cry 6 says otherwise and that being the triple a game that it turned out to be I better rush and go 16GB as I am busting to play it
According to ubi, they can't make their minds up, they say 16gb then they said 12gb and now on install they say 11gb???

Lol.According to ubi, they can't make their minds up, they say 16gb then they said 12gb and now on install they say 11gb???
Erm... you do realise that is a greater than sign which you appear to be confusing with the greater than or equal to sign. The requirement is still 12gbAccording to ubi, they can't make their minds up, they say 16gb then they said 12gb and now on install they say 11gb???
The correct way/format to do it is then
=>12GB
Given that their in game vram usage is completely inaccurate too, just goes to show they can't decide what it should be........
ps. I know the in game vram indicator is a "bug"

Maybe all them refunds started to hurt ... They really made a mess of it and embarrassed themselves with this HD texture pack that should have just been part of the game and made to work with cards from 8GB and up depending on the resolution being used, but they had to nerf every card without 16GB VRAM and then playing ohh 12GB will work now >11GB... meeh lost all respect for them, hope they make a loss on this in the end but I doubt it as AMD covered most of the costs with the sponsership and giving the game away with cpu and gpu sales.

Oh man, I can't believe any rational person actually thinks like this. Man, I'm sorry but you really have no idea. Honestly.

You just read it wrong in your haste to post this screenshot everywhere.
Hasn't it been proven the consoles can play this with the HD texture pack ? If the consoles can manage it so can a pc with a 8GB VRAM gpu at a resolution lower than 4K of course, but >11GB vram limit is for what resolution ? Also they posted on their own Blog that the HD texture pack needs cards with 16GB VRAM and up.. So which is it ?
Also when they say >11GB VRAM at what resolution and when they also state 16GB VRAM at what resolution ?
Or is the console version streaming via directstorage to bypass the memory requirements, remember the consoles have 16GB unified memory, so some used by gpu and some used by the cpu (in the apu)? Then if that is the case why didn't they enable that on pc, as we do have it on windows 10 and 11 directstorage.
See now coming back to the average gaming pc with 8GB VRAM gpu, they also normally have 16GB RAM in the system too and now a M.2 ssd too. So don't see why it was so hard to make a pc be better than a console or have consoles now become better than an average mid highend pc ?

Consoles not running 4K. Consoles not running RT. Consoles not even using Ultra preset. Need I go on?
Requirement is 12GB or higher. As chuk pointed out, that's what the installer indicates, even if it is a bit arse about face.
Actually, consoles or rather xbox is also having issues with texture pop in/not rendering too (DF noted that it is there on ps5 and pc/3090 too, more noticeable when driving fast and new areas of the map are loading in)
Issue is even there on gpus with ≥16GB vram too, it's just less prevalent and not much of an issue for sessions of<2 hours apparently.
Either way, this talk of FC 6 and it's "confirmed" texture/vram issue has been done to death in the other thread..... Lets not have it start all over again in here, we got a new game to argue about
TBF, not wrong
"Technically" if we want to say a value is = AND > than then this is the correct way to do it ≥

And Technically >= is an acceptable replacement for ≥ in typed text.

This is a much more fun debate than vram related stuff
How many times you gonna post that screenshot
Will depend on how many times people keep on insisting that only nvidia/low vram gpus are affected

These last couple of posts are getting me down.
Time to retire for the evening with some disaronno and reminisce about the good old days when I had GPUs with larger frame buffers than was typical in that day and age, ala 7970 3GB and the 290X 8GB.
