AMD GPUs are finally getting the one feature that has become Nvidia's new USP
… AMD is reportedly working to bring up to 6x frame generation to the next FSR version, finally achieving feature parity with Nvidia and, in this case, Intel. …
GPU companies want you to buy more, and artificial segmentation is a neat way to force you to do just that. To me, it feels obvious that a higher-end SKU deserves to have more VRAM than lower-end counterparts, but Nvidia doesn't agree. While its RTX 5060 Ti has a 16GB variant, the 30% faster RTX 5070 is left to struggle with just 12GB of VRAM. Sure, the RTX 5070 Ti has 16GB of VRAM, but so does the top-tier RTX 5080, as inexplicable as that is. Even the last-gen RTX 4080 and RTX 4080 Super have 16GB of memory; why does the successor not have more? The simple answer is that Nvidia is the market
