They were on their way here but ran out of RAM.Where is the "8GB is fine with modern decompression" gang today?
We had 3060 12gigs launch over 4years ago at 330$ msrp, now nvidia takes away vram from 20-25% stronger card and what can u do with this card in 2027-2028 once next gen consoles/games arrive, ppl can only shove those 8gigs of vram up their ass8g is fine ... If you brought it 3 years ago.
Good card killed by Vram
from HUBwell spend the extra 150-200 for a 9070 and give novideo the middle finger.
if its anything less than 12gb its dead to me. 9070 is at least 16gbfrom HUB

it's 8 and 16gb, but AIB's announce only 16GB version. Seems AMD give to them freedom, what they want to sell.if its anything less than 12gb its dead to me
the fact there's an 8gb version at all is incredibly concerning but we'll seeit's 8 and 16gb, but AIB's announce only 16GB version. Seems AMD give to them freedom, what they want to sell.
AIBs want an 8GB version because it sells better for them through the OEMs while having higher margin for the AIBs. Which is why you see 5060Ti 8GB and will see 9060XT 8GB as well. This has zero to do with AMD giving anyone any freedom.the fact there's an 8gb version at all is incredibly concerning but we'll see
Does anyone has at least a prediction on how much 8gb GDDR7 actually cost?
It's beyond my comprehension why neither AMD nor Intel cut NVIDIA's legs by simply killing the 8GB versions and putting an aggressively priced 16GB version on top of the RTX 5060 8GB.
The bad news is that if you own an RTX 5060 series card (either RTX 5060 or RTX 5060 Ti), your GPU may be prone to black screens or reboots. According to NVIDIA, this is caused by incompatibility with certain motherboard SBIOS (System BIOS) versions. The company emphasizes that the firmware update should only be applied by users experiencing these problems. If your system is running normally, the update is not necessary.
would be interesting to see battle between 5060 and 9060xt 8gb with full pcie on PCI3(b450) motherboardsPredictably, it sucks.
We can tell by the price difference of 8 and 16gigs version of 5060ti, at most its 50$, but likely not even thatDoes anyone has at least a prediction on how much 8gb GDDR7 actually cost? Is there some sort of RAM shortage in the market?

The 40 series wasn't bad though. 4090, 4080, 4070 Ti, 4070S, and even the 4070 are all great to good cards. There were a few stumbles such as the launch price of the 4080 and the lack of a 16GB 4060, but otherwise, I'd say it was better than Turing and fairly comparable to Maxwell, if not better.I didn't think they could make a worse generation than the 40 series and yet here we are, fuck Nvidia.
Would be interesting to see duel between 9600XT 8gb and 5060ti 8gbnaming 8GB and 16GB versions of their GPUs the same. This shit was done on purpose.
There's a GPU like that, it's called 5060Ti 16GB, if you think that you need such VRAM amount go and buy it.it just needs more than 8GB of VRAM to show correct textures and ~60fps average:

Expecting a commercial company to take a financial hit and gift you more VRAM for no reason is lunacy.
What one could argue in this case is that a 5060 16GB would be a better option for the lineup than a 5060Ti 8GB.
But there's a huge MP only market which doesn't need more than 8GB while it does need all the performance it can get.
Which is why I wouldn't just assume that Nvidia doesn't know what the market wants or what would sell better. Their results certainly suggest that they know this really well.

DRAMeXchange has 16Gbit GDDR6 chips at around ~$8-10/piece. They don't list GDDR7, but presumably around that price or somewhat higher. You need 4x extra chips to build a 16GB rather than 8GB variant, so with the 9060XT and 5060 Ti 16GB both +$50 over 8GB they are likely sold at pretty close to the BOM increase after the extra VRM components, PCB layers etc needed.
Okay explain this to me.

Its like we need 2 of these to get 16gb or i'm interpreting it wrong? 3 dollars more + the structural components changes in the card, which shouldn't be many. The entire cost of planning and executing an extra assembly line isn'tlain and simple panned obsolescence
RAM chips are in bits, not bytes.
8Gbit = 1GB
16Gbit = 2GB
8GB is 4x 16Gbit, and 16GB is 8x. 8Gbit is obsolete and EOL, nothing currently in the market really uses it except for XSS/XSX.
Only if you stole the rest of the PC.It matched for solid few years performance of 400$/€ base ps4 for fraction of its price
Is there any point to make console vs pc warpost in a 5060/ti review thread, come on bro, u are smarter than that xDOnly if you stole the rest of the PC.
Lemme remind u guys just how awful those lowend/entry lvl gpu's are by comparing it to a ppl's champion back from early 2014, 750ti, which had fricken 150usd msrp(and actual streetprice too).

Forever or not but most of these games are "forever games" so they do tend to be stuck at whatever (low) requirements they had launched with.Yeah because multiplayer games will forever be stuck with low requirements.
And they won't take a hit on that for no reason, correct. The fact that someone thinks that they could or even should means zero.Financial hit? You have to be kidding me, they have very healthy margins on every GPU model.
This GPU is nowhere close to being powerful enough to "display maximum settings in many games".You want to play games with lower settings on 5060ti 8gb? You can do that, just know that this GPU is powerful enough to display maximum settings in many games, it just needs that precious vram.
8GB model will be fine on a 2nd hand market because the price is already low enough to not fall much from there.8gb model will be worthless on second hand market as well while currently MSRP difference is only 50$ 8gb model is for idiots.
