More VRAM is not always the performance boost you think it is
Gamers have understandably been worried about VRAM capacities, since running out of VRAM during gaming is something no one wants to experience. Companies like Nvidia and AMD haven't exactly kept pace with the VRAM requirements of modern games, which is evident in the series of 8GB VRAM GPUs still being launched. That said, VRAM alone doesn't guarantee a great gaming experience. If your only criterion when buying a graphics card is 12GB or 16GB of VRAM, you may be setting yourself up for disappointment. Adding more VRAM to a weak GPU won't magically fix its poor performance. Similarly, your system could be limited by other bottlenecks, not your GPU's VRAM. Before making a purchase decision, do your research about not only how much VRAM you need for your favorite titles, but also the GPU performance tier you should target.
