8GB. Cool, so a 1080P card then?
Netherwind
Is the 2080 Super a 1080p card with its 8GB VRAM? Not really, right?
The amount of VRAM doesn't dictate "max resolution" in games. I will work nicely at 1440p and even 4K depending on the game.
Aura89
Try 1440 to 4K as 8GB is plenty and will be for 3+ years.
Get with the facts, not makebelieve just because you want it to be correct.

Lets not speak NOW , lets speak when next gen games start poping. It will change fast. We need to have same discussion in 2 years.

No DVI connector either, huh.

Is that why 16gb and 20gb versions of 3070 and 3080 are coming? Ok then.
PsyaNyde
Maybe hold off, there's rumoured to be a 16gb version in the wings

Nvidia's ditched those ages ago. Maybe they had em on high end 700 series last?
Undying
What are you talking about. Even a 1080 have a dvi-d port.
Calmmo
My 900 card and 20 series didn't, guess some cards still had em. Need that VGA too. *dell nods*

My GTX 1080 says otherwise. It's true, however, that I wasn't paying much attention to the 2xxx series after the benchmarks came in...
Undying
1080 FE dont have but aibs do have even as 1080ti. With 2000 series its only dp and hdmi.

Lets speak with historical information. Not an unknown future based on how the past is and history hasn't happened.
So nvidia can get money out of suckers? Because they wish to pay more for something that won't benefit them? Absolutely.
Just like AMDs currently released 16GB models, just like AMDs previous 4GB vs 8GB models, etc. Barely any, if any, difference, and happened years after the release when saving money and buying a new GPU later on would have helped far more then the few, very few extra FPS you got for over spending on a GPU that didn't need that much memory.
Facts are facts, history is history.
Get enough people complaining your GPUs don't have enough memory even though you as a company who makes said GPUs knows otherwise, why wouldn't they release higher memory versions and rake in more cash just to satisfy those who don't want to look at reality? Win-Win for nvidia/AMD, more money, and more sales.

People have been confusing memory allocated with utilized since the beginning of computers. Also higher the bandwidth the faster said memory can be filled so you can get away with less without any impact since you can preload resources faster. I think what everyone should do it is read reviews of higher VRAM cards and decide off the data.
Aura89
I'm stating facts. I'm sure radeon vii users are super happy about their 16gb of vram its lasted them so well compared to newer GPUs.
Same with the rtx titan and its 24gb
Same with the titan x/xp with its 12gb
Im sure they all love the fact that those GPUs cost a lot of money but are getting destroyed by GPUs with much less ram in them at 4K, where the additional ram was...supposed to make their GPU last longer.....
(Only talking gaming here, yes, workstations can utilize that extra ram)
So no, i'm stating facts, if you dont wish to believe these facts, you can put a tinfoil hat on at any time.
Aura89
I'm sorry you don't believe facts. They aren't something that should have to be believed. But some people wish to wear tinfoil hats either which way. Glad i'm not one of those people, and actually see historical information, and don't base my future on incorrect, non-factual information.
...Unless you, ya know...have actual, provable, non-theoretical scenario where your statement is actually correct in more then at minimum 2 scenarios?
Yeah...doubt it sorry i just simply don't...want to believe in what isn't there. Not interested, neither should you be. Or anyone else for that matter.
