There are several threads talking about the amount of vram that games require. And the discussion about how much is needed can become quite heated.
But now I pose the question of how much vram do gaffers have on their GPUs.
So let's find out what is the average vram people have around here.

 

[West Texas CEO]

24 GB

 

[Celcius]

24GB on my RTX 3090. I play at 4K and it's nice never having to worry about how much VRAM I have.
I plan to upgrade to the RTX 5090 whenever it comes out.

 

[Caffeine]

12GB 3060 oc, play on 2560x1080.

 

[thuGG_pl]

24 of vrams

 

[Mithos]

RTX 2060 Super (8GB).

Someday... GPUS might be powerful enough and have more vram and be within my budget.

 

[TransTrender]

24GB

 

[amigastar]

12 GB 4070.
And btw i like the "I only have a console" option, makes the poll much more accurate.

 

[analog_future]

24GB.

Not needed right now, but nice to not have to worry about it.

 

[Magic Carpet]

12 GB on the rtx4070
11 GB on old gtx1080ti

That 1 extra GB upgrade made all the difference, /s

 

[Kadve]

6Gb. Got no need for more right now.

 

[diffusionx]

Just for perspective:
On this site: 75% of people have >= 10GB
On Steam: 75% of people have <= 8GB

 

[TheAtomicPile]

Went for 16 GB last spring and was glad I did when the Alan Wake 2 specs came out.

 

[Needlecrash]

24gbs from my RTX 4090. Figured I'd future proof my rig. I upgraded from a 3080 a few months ago.

 

[RobRSG]

10GB on my trusty Geforce RTX 3080 ASUS TUF OC… Never had any VRAM issues.

 

[Kacho]

Sensible family sedan tier

12

 

[Sirolf]

16 Go on my 4070Ti super

 

[OverHeat]

24 on both cards in my house.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

16

 

[M1987]

12GB 3080Ti

 

[MikeM]

20GB. 7900xt.

Card slaps.

 

[Antwix]

12gb 6700xt

 

[Hohenheim]

24 gb / 4090

 

[Joelenheimer]

12GB 4070ti, dragons dogma still runs like ass, fun game tho

 

[Monad]

24 GB.

 

[Guilty_AI]

12gb

 

[KuraiShidosha]

24GB, if it's not a 4090, why bother?

 

[FoxMcChief]

As much as I can download.

 

[SeasonedInTheAbyss]

3060ti 8GB the 256bit memory interface helps it punch above its weight.

 

[Garibaldi]

24 (3090). I like knowing I can mod in ridiculous textures and not have to worry. Although my extremely heavily modded Cyberpunk and Skyrim are knocking on the door of the cap.

 

[Gaiff]

11GB/2080 Ti
24GB/4090

 

[Barakov]

Still trucking at 8GB.

I'm also playing at 1080p and not getting the newest and AAA hottest releases on PC.

 

[Sleepwalker]

16gb on my 4080. It eats up anything I throw at it.


8gb on my wifes 2080s which is honestly great for switch emulation and the games she plays.

 

[smbu2000]

24GB 4090 on my desktop and 16GB 3080 on my laptop.

My previous desktop card was a 12GB 3080ti before I upgraded to the 4090.

 

[SakkanartSilentJealousy]

12GB on 2K monitor. I barely play AAA games on my PC though.

 

[dreamstation]

Still rocking a 1070 which is 8GB I'm pretty sure? Need to upgrade but have been waiting for prices to get back to normal levels. Nearly there.

 

[MisterXDTV]

It's funny how people on NeoGAF always tell me you can build an amazing PC for $500, then you see this poll results and the majority of people here have GPUs with 24 freaking GB of VRAM or more

The usual bullshit by the PCMR

 

[Kenpachii]

12gb 4080 laptop = 4070 desktop.

I play on 4k and 1080p depends on the game.

 

[tylrdiablos]

3080TI FE here.

Nice strawman.

Besides your point being utterly ridiculous, just because you have a high-end setup doesn’t mean you can’t recognize the utility and value of a more budget-friendly system. I have a 4090 but fully know you absolutely don’t need that to enjoy games.

Posters like you seriously harm this place by always attempting to start shit for no other reason other than being fucking petty.

 

[Braag]

24Gb and I'm still a little worried if it's enough few years down the road.

 

[Skifi28]

12gb seems to be fine for 1440p for now, I'm good.

 

[Fess]

8GB
3070 Ti / Cubase metal PC

16GB
4080 Super / Living room ”Xbox+PS” PC

24GB
4090 / Desktop gaming PC

 

[Schmick]

8GB from my 2070
20GB from GeForce Now Ultimate sub.

 

[Lux R7]

24, 3090

 

[MadchesterManc]

Went with a 3090 for the 24GB. Sure not much uses that these days, but every now and again something odd will try when running ultra settings. Hell, Dragon Age Inquisition at max settings using DLDSR gobbles up 20-22GB Only others I can recall that high are Steel Rising and FFXV

 

[Kamina]

4, its s GTX980

 

[Seider]

4 Gb on a GTX 970.

 

[winjer]

I wasn't expecting that 24GB would have so many votes.
I was expecting that a lot more people had 8GB, since that was the standard for mainstream cards for a long time.

Gaf is mostly enthusiasts so this isn’t the least bit surprising.
