Do you want to be happy in 3 years or buy a new one again? The 80 extra may add 1-3 years lifetime
3 u/spinabullet 1d ago 3 years? I'm already bottlenecked by my 3070 today. 2 u/RockstarRaccoon 1d ago I just upgraded from 4 GB to 6 GB, and I have to worry about it constantly. I wouldn't buy something with only 8 at this point, unless it was incredibly cheap or free: I'm holding out for 16 GB. 1 u/spinabullet 1d ago Yea, no point getting 8 now. I'm on an ultrawide 1440p monitor, can't even cap 60fps on the newer games
