AMD getting ready to cuck people with 4gb vram

at least it isn't 3.5gb

Might as well be because hitting max vram cap has the same effects

i don't see much of an issue, especially with dx12 around the corner.

right now, 2gpus are really just to make damn sure you don't go under 60fps at 1080p or 1440p, and 4gb is more than enough, and when dx12 rolls around, the card is now 8gb (if the devs aren't shit)

The 4GB limit of the first generation of HBM memory is the limiting factor with regards to 1440p+ so AMD's reaction is once again pic related.

>paying for a second GPU on-die solely for its additional 4GB HBM

They can't add more memory, therefore they're adding another GPU.

It'll perform better than the R9 295X2 across the board which is also 4GB.
>nitpicking bullshit because you're a tech illiterate shitposter from /v/
Just stay in your containment board

In most applications the memory is mirrored accross the two GPUs so it won't give you any benefit of having it twice.
>>
>>52635551
It even says "8gb hbm1 graphics memory" right in the paragraph below that. C'mon guys
>>
>>52631814
At least it wont happen until all of the 4GB is exhausted.
>>
>>52635710

They're summing the memory contained in each individual GPU. That marketing figure doesn't in any way address what >>52635551 asserts.
