When buying a graphics card, if there are multiple VRAM options for the same model, many people may encounter a choice barrier. They don’t know which one to choose, or the standard version. Recently, some YouTubers use the latest RTX 4060 Ti 8GB and 16GB To explain this, and show why you shouldn’t choose 8GB in 2023, most games will perform much better with 16GB, and in the long run, it is indeed better to choose larger VRAM. Foreign YouTuber uses actual measurements to explain why you should not choose 8GB VRAM when buying a graphics card in 2023 A few days ago, foreign YouTube channel Daniel Owen shared a video “How bad is 8GB VRAM in 2023”, he used RTX 4060 Ti 8GB and RTX 4060 Ti 16GB for two graphics cards, to illustrate how much more VRAM affects modern games. Owen found that many games will use more than 8GB of VRAM when running by 2023. He tested seven of the latest 3A game masterpieces, including “Ricky and Clank: Rift Apart”, “Star Wars Jedi: Survivor”, “Spelled Land” “, “Cyberpunk 2077”, “Evil Castle 4”, “Remains 2” and “The Last of Us Part 1”, each game also runs a variety of quality settings, such as 1080p, 1440, 4K, open RT and so on. The actual measurement shows that most games require more than 8GB of VRAM, most of which are between 9GB and 111GB. If “Evil Castle 4” is set to 4K resolution and the highest image quality, it requires 12.1GB, which means that the RTX 4060 Ti 8GB is completely Not enough, 16GB can handle it: But even so, not every game’s 16GB game performance is much better than 8GB, here I pick up a few more important games. In the game “Evil Castle 4”, the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB is 11% faster than 8GB at 1080p, 9% faster at 1440p, and 24% faster at 4K. What is more noteworthy is that 1% lows, the bottleneck of 8GB becomes more obvious, 16GB has a performance lead of 77% ~ 113% among the three resolutions: “Ricky and Clank: Rift Apart” also has a big gap, enable RT And in the 1080p Very High setting, 16GB is 34% faster than 8GB, 1440p widens the gap to 43%, and 4K reaches 85%, but the gap is not so big when RT is turned off: “Relics 2” and “Star Wars Jedi: Survivors” “There is no obvious performance improvement, 16GB and 8GB are similar: “Cyberpunk 2077” is also, Owen also found that after using DLSS 3 technology, it will consume more VRAM, such as RTX 4060 Ti 16GB 1440p RT Ultra configuration, consumes 8426MB VRAM , after changing to DLSS image quality, the VRAM becomes 7249MB, 1GB less. The same is true for RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, but because of the bottleneck, the consumption level is not as high as 16GB: So, the 16GB version with a slightly more expensive price will basically have better game performance than 8GB, although not every model is like this, but at least It can be determined that in the long run, it is a better investment, and the demand for VRAM in games will only increase in the future. But if most of you are not playing 3A games, I think that if the price difference is too big, the 8GB version can actually be considered, after all, it is true to save money. Full video:
