I bought an used RTX 3070 with 8GB VRAM, two and a half years ago, and occasionally i get pissed from my VRAM limits. I don't know who buys a GPU with 8GB these days...
Uninformed desperate users unfortunately😔
I bought one new as the planned 3090 and potential backup 3080 were far too expensive, worst card i owned.
The 8gb was enough for about 3 months, when i was still enamored with my backlog of older games.
I now switched teams and got a 24gb gpu. My first gpu was also team red and lasted 11 years until it was incapable of running the games i wanted to play. I hope my current gpu will also last longer.
