vram.

Planned obsolescence is the phrase I’d use.
Here’s some food for thought. Space marine 2 with texture pack. 21GB used. 23GB allocated.
it's annoying sure I wish they used some 3GB modules 5080 with 24GB would have been killer
 
Dont trust whatever nvidia says about how dlss x will reduce needs for higher amounts of vram. I remember back in the gtx970 days they said they had come outwith something new that reduced the need for more vram. It never made any difference ( i cant think of anything funny to say about the gtx 970 having 4gb of vram but only 3.5gb was usable, but I'm sure somebody else can ).

This is why the 16GB of VRAM on the 5080 is unacceptable. It's not even out yet and it's already unable to play a AAA game in 4K with high res textures...for a grand! Absolutely DOA for that price. It may as well be called the "RTX oh go on then just give me the 5090".
