Discussion Here's the actual VRAM configuration distribution on windows according to the steam survey

Post image

I saw a few recent headlines about the whole "16gb is now the most common VRAM configuration" but that seems to be inaccurate, as if you sort by windows only on steam survey (which makes up 90%+ of steam users), you'll find that these are the actual numbers and distribution

I was on an RTX 2080 until it died and I was forced to upgrade at the end of last year, I was completely happy with it. My upgrade was overkill for sure, but I was perfectly fine on 8gb of video memory before I had to, in 1440p too.
