The person I replied to is specifically talking about consumer gaming gpus.

They definitely are, unless you think that they’re saying that nvidias big boy AI gpus come with less than 16GB of RAM.

i’m saying that 8gb GPUs are still useful as workload accelerators in workstations etc

Cool, you’re not the original person I replied to.

right and this is a public message board in which multiple people can carry on a conversation

Sure, but when you jump in the middle of another 2 people’s conversation to say you disagree, it’s not up to the other people to automatically know that you’re actually disagreeing with something different to what they’re discussing lol

that is literally what you’re discussing… they never said anything about gaming: they just said GPUs… just admit you made an assumption mate

Nvidia AI gpu’s don’t have <16GB of RAM. They have 48+. Some have over 180GB. They were talking about desktop GPUs, the RTX series.
