Why are AMD always so generous with VRAM and nvidia so conservative?
I mean 3Gb is very borderline for some games at 1080p, and actually not enough for some at 1440p.
those resolutions are no problem for 290/290x with 4Gb, so why are nvidia always holding back in that regard?
If you take another of their "top end" cards, the 580, 1.5gb was arguably not enough at release, let alone shortly afterwards.
I know someone will probably mention how 'generous' they were with the Titan, but that's not exactly a card aimed at everyone and was more of a peen flexing exercise by nvidia than an actual sensible card release.
