    Today you need at least video card whit 16GB of VRam to have a cofort gaming, otherwise - massive fps drops, stuters, lags and freezes, not fully loaded textures and other issues, even when using budget 300 dollar cards. On Hardware Unboxed channel you can see the results, of using cards whit less than 12GB of VRam.

      II disagree with you. We have plenty of videos on 2024 games measured at 1440p ultra settings, some showing continuous gameplay for an hour. The video memory requirements for Helldivers 2, Once Human, and The First Descendant were between 7-8 GB, and while Ghost of Tsushima reached 9.7 GB, the game provided a smooth experience throughout, with no frame time spikes that weren't also present on the 3090. Of course we used DLSS everywhere, which you can ignore and play in native resolution, which done by all those tech channels, who wants to prove, 8 or 10 GB video memory isn't enough in 2024. But I think most real life gamers didn't care about if its native or upscaled, most of us just want to enjoy the smooth gameplay.
      If you reach a point in a game where VRAM paging causes stuttering, you can still lower the settings; there's life below ultra, especially if you're using a 4-year-old graphics card. Recently, we had a LAN party and used auto settings in Fortnite. The 2080 Super's 8 GB memory was insufficient even at 1080p in epic settings; textures didn't load, and the game stuttered to the point of being unplayable. But after switching from epic to high settings, it stabilized at 80 fps and provided a flawless experience for a friend who has a 3080TI in his own setup. So, it's not true that you should forget about gaming if you don't have a 12 or 16 GB card. There are scenarios where 10 GB is indeed insufficient, but switching to high settings from ultra can still offer a pleasant gaming experience. What will happen in 2025-2026 and beyond is uncertain, but 2024 and earlier games are perfectly playable on a 10 GB 3080, and I believe that with reduced settings, future games will also be manageable for a while.

      ​@@dmitrijolejnitsch3313 You said without 16gb you'll get *Massive* drops of Fps, lag, textures not loading plus more..... Sounds like it's unplayable according to you. That goes beyond just comfort.
      Just admit you don't know what you're talking about. You haven't seen footage of 8gb 3060 t. I whooping a 3060 12 gb? Vram isn't everything. If you optimize your PC too you'll get crazy gains and Vram will hardly be an issue.
      I played Still Wakes The Deep recently 1440p using DLDSR to upscale to 4K, 60fps, with a mix of high and ultra settings. Gamepass version which only supported TSR. The game is an unoptimized UE5 game but my 3060 t. I played it well.

      @@SmoothSportsGaming Just watch video on Hardware Unboxed about Vram 8GB vs 16GB on 4060/7600, and 3070 8GB vs 3070 16GB.
      - And its my opinion, that 8GB Vram is bottom low budget entry gaming in 2024.

      I switched from 1440p to a 2160p screen recently and using the 3080 10GB. And while the performance is now obviously lower, the only VRAM issue I noticed is that the game drops to 1 fps when exiting a menu, or when changing a graphics setting. So yes, I hit the VRAM limit and the game has to reload everything. But overall the experience is as smooth as before.

    Rtx 3080 should be fine at 1440p gaming for a couple more years right?. I bought asus rog strix 3080 for $350 usd and im hoping it will play Black Myth Wukong and Assassins Creed Shadows at 1440p high settings.

      yes, it should be okay and I missed one thing from the video, and it is the upscaling technologies which can make 3080 more future proof.
      I am planning to make a video about its role now and in the future and if you are interested in what DLSS and FSR is, you can find the answer in this video czcams.com/video/krBW9vw4dgY/video.html
