Because it's the low-end xx60? Also, apparently Nvidia did some high-tech magic that allows higher-res textures to be handled with less vRAM.
But, yeah, it's a 5060. You're not buying this to play in 4k Ultra.
Ever since the 40 series, you need to downgrade every card by 1 tier to get the actual product. Nvidia marketing gimmick.
RTX 4060 - RTX 4050
RTX 4060 Ti - RTX 4050 Ti
RTX 4070 - RTX 4060
RTX 4070 Super - higher clock speed RTX 4060
RTX 4070 Ti - RTX 4060 TI
RTX 4070 Ti Super - RTX 4070
RTX 4080 - RTX 4070 TI
RTX 4080 Super - RTX 4080
RTX 40?? - RTX 4080 TI. There definitely should have been a GPU in this bracket judging by transistor counts. Would eat into the insane 4090 margin though so it wasn't meant to be.
RTX 4090 is of course appropriately named.
This video clearly shows the NVIDIA magic is pooping in your own pants.
And the card even struggles at 1080p with 8GB...
I love to poop in my own pants
I mean that NVIDIA will poop your pants
Is it firm or liquid?
So it's performing worse than 3060 or 4060?
In some instances, it performs worse than 3060 12GB. It does not perform worse than 4060 as both perform terribly when 8GB isn't enough
Time to short Nvidia??
