Is 8GB a lot? Depends on the context.

Since when was 8GB RAM, let alone 8GB VRAM, a problem? Are you running ML models, video editing or some special games?? Or some weird poorly-written thing like Windows OS?
Nowadays even at 1080p 8GB of Vram doesn't cut it.
Doesn't cut what? Web browsing? Watching videos? Playing new games?
Playing new games at high settings. The card often does have raw performance to handle it but due to lack of VRAM results in terrible framerate or lack of detail
Ah, that makes sense. I rarely-if-ever play heavyweight games.
My 1060 would like a word, at 940*544 so it'll be blurry. But it would like to talk.
Yes.
