Why did I buy an 8gig RX480?

Who in their right mind needs 8 gigs of RAM on their fucking video card?

What possible fucking program is going to need 16 gigs of DDR 3 and 8 of DDR5?

God, I'm such a fucking RETARD

I could have bought two 2 gig RX 460's and run them in crossfire, at least then I would have gotten at least SOME improvement in performance...

Why the fuck theres no 6gb rx480
>>
>>58224076
Return it and get the 4GB version. If you cannot return it, just accept the loss. The price difference is about $30-$40 more, no? That is not going to bankrupt you.

if you cant use all your VRAM theres something wrong with your setup, likely you're not using the proper resolution or a godly multi monitor setup.

Just once, I want the tech industry to lie to me. I want them to tell me things are going to get better then have them get worse.

Just once I want to see the tech industry to crash and fucking burn. I want to see something flop harder than betamax.

If you have 3 processors and 48 gigs of RAM, how is that not a server?

Hardware advancements beget software bloat, so it's only a matter of time before >4GB GPUs become advantageous thank to the number of 6GB GTX 1060s or better floating around.

Even the XO/PS4 allocate >5GB for graphics stuff nowadays, so lazy ports will likely even benefit.

Big open world games like gta v can be heavy on vram at 4k

You're a fucking RETARD but not for the those reasons.

There is no way your fucking LOW-END graphics card will ever use 8 GB of VRAM efficiently.
4 GB can be short on non-HBM graphics card when used at resolutions greater than 1080p.

HOWEVER, you don't plan on playing video games at those resolutions with a FUCKING RX 480 except if you're found of slideshows.

kys youself out of this world and
off to >>>/v/ you go
>>
>>58224076

First off skyrim mods.

Second new games will be made even shittier and require it.
>>
>>58224076

16gm is also for more then one program. Namely running a web browser while you do something else since web browser are such memory hogs these days. Memory is cheap enough that 16 is a no brainer.

Graphics cards are for more than just graphics - they're good for any massively parallel tasks. Try not being such a fucking consumer next time.

its far better on the card than on the mobo
people are going crazy over RAM, which was fine when it was cheap, but now acting like they need 16GB of ram..

hell they dont even need 8GB RAM, most faggots would be mighty fine with 4GB, even the heavy gamers
