[@DigitallisGaming]

super helpful! i just finished assembling my 2nd prebuild (all upgrades, but it was pretty much all new lol), and i kept my 3080ti. Never knew why 12gb was so bonkers good, i just knew it was good. Thank you!

[@silverfoxvr8541]

Depends on what you do. I have a 16GB 4080 and VRChat will complete fill the VRAM in party worlds with like 30-60 people in custom avatars. People with less than 12GB lag almost instantly. Even a 4090 with 24GB can get overwhelmed. No matter what though I would never buy a card with less than 12GB rn.

@silverfox: Sure you do buddy!

How does this video only have 345 likes? I am not joking this is extremely helpful and I do not understand how you do not have AT LEAST 10k likes.

[@DaniArkadia]

The music was a little loud and distracting for me, just to let you know.

[@peterdejong5456]

Great overview! Gives superb insight in the all important question 'How much VRAM do I need, keeping economy and future-proofing in mind?'. The muzak could be better though (very distracting).

[@GundamCreator]

Im looking for a GPU right now and I know little about it. So here I am and thanks for the info. Really appreciate it.

Really helpful thanks, any video tutorials for optimal windows set up to run Blender would be really helpful !

[@Zeakais]

Whats better for triple 4k monitors for sim racing, Rtx 4060 ti with 16gb Vram or Rtx 4070 with 12gb?

[@VelocityMicroPC]

The 4070 has better benchmarks despite less vRAM

[@simonshusse]

Some comparison test to back this up would have been nice. Not the future proofing stuff but lets say Last of Us on a 8GB card vs a 12GB card.

[@rc54]

Very nice work!!

[@nickargeny8467]

I'm just getting into to PC gaming I got a great pre-built PC at microcenter. It has a ryzen 7950x3d cpu. Then a 7900xtx with 24gb of vram white tachi edition. I wanted to add an I so it says Itachi like in Naruto. But I also have 64 gb of ddr5 ram by a 2 32gb flair x5 . Is their any settings I should know. I know I need to prioritize using the 3d cache first because that part of the cpu has a higher clock speed.

[@sir_coma60]

After ps1 graphics Monster Hunter Wilds Beta, I now looking at my 4gb vram as lackluster. Gonna up it to 16gb if i get the chance!

[@Rombodonbojonbo]

With my 6700xt overclocked and undervolted im playing cyberpunk ray traced medium but all the other settings maxed out with 60 plus frames with fsr 2 pretty good

[@LawatheMEid]

Hi, If the VRAM is ECC for workstation graphics card, does the system RAM and the motherboard must be also ECC or it does not matter ?

[@VelocityMicroPC]

You can pair non ECC system RAM with ECC VRAM without issues.

[@ShetDefrentlyStudios]

You clip the mic a lot, try backing away from the mic or turn your mic down. Other things you may find helpful... try not to vary the distance from your mouth to the mic so much, especially if you insist on being that close to the thing. Also, your mic cover isn't able to deal with your "P's" and "B's" very well, if you don't want to get a better one, maybe try being more conscious of the direction of your voice, as in, don't angle your mouth directly at the mic. Honestly, the best/easiest thing you could probably do is to move the microphone, another 6 inches or so away from you, if you voice gets to quite, you could try turning up your mic at that point. But if that doesn't work, you'll seriously want to consider not bopping around so much. I mean, if you wanna spend money, you could get a good clip on mic, which in theory, should move with you so that your mouth to mic distance isn't constantly changing. If all of this is just too much for you to be concerned with, fixing it post production is probably your best bet. If you know anything about audio compression, that would likely be your most valuable asset, post production wise, but knowing your way around an EQ is up there too. If you don't know how to use that stuff and you don't want to learn, you could probably get away with running your recorded vocals through a pre-existing vocal processing chain. As far as I know, there are free options for audio processing on this level. Audacity, is a program you may already be familiar with. I hear fl studio is easy to get your hands on. You obviously have spent some effort on the production value of this video, so it's a shame to hear the poor audio quality. Production value wise, I'd say its the biggest thing holding you back. Improving your audio is a rabbit hole that goes deep, but really, the fix to this issue can be as simple or as complicated as you want it to be. Really, if you just turned your mic down so that your not clipping, you could reduce the dynamic range of your voice with a compressor and then adjust your vocal volume (post production) up or down depending on how loud you want it to be. As a final note, consider listening to your audio on multiple sound systems and hear how it sounds coming from say, laptop speakers, earbuds, car stereo, monitor speakers if available. This comment is already too long and potentially confusing, depending on your experience with audio so I guess I'll leave it there.

I really like my 128mb Vram :D

[@peterchang3998]

VRAM were dual ported DRAM in the 90s.

[@DS6Prophet]

My current build is pretty OP for my 2K-1080p needs. RTX 3070Ti 32GB DDR5 Ram AMD Ryzen 6900HX For people who're not willing to go full overkill with hardware, this is one of the most solid combinations you can go with for gaming/heavy tasks/editing etc.

[@Kaalpurush_Katha]

Sir is 3060 12gb enough for video editing.. Also 12 gb 3060 or 8 Gb 4050

[@VelocityMicroPC]

Answer depends on the specific software you're using and the resolution you're editing at, but video editing is more heavily CPU involved than most people realize. Either GPU will be ok, but the RTX 3060 is the better option,

[@Kaalpurush_Katha]

@@VelocityMicroPC thank you for your valuable reply sir

[@VanillaCrook]

Thanks for the explanation. Whats 96 bit and 192 bit mean?

[@VelocityMicroPC]

That's referring to the memory bandwidth, essentially how many bits the bus can handle per memory cycle. A good analogy is lanes of a highway - just as more lanes handle more traffic more efficiently, so does higher bandwidth handle more data transfer more efficiently.

[@inqizzo]

And mostly cards below 192 are bottlenecked by it

[@Matthewsavant]

So essentially V ram does for the GPU what ram does for the CPU…random access memory but solely for graphics processing?

[@VelocityMicroPC]

Basically yes

[@joroshinkai]

Great video i am subscribing.

[@nesa.7937]

Music is a bit loud, but nice quality for shuch small channel

[@klusty5414]

My VRAM is full what should i do?

[@friedrichbatov2129]

Should i get a 3060 ti with 8gb Or a 3060 but with 12gb

[@VelocityMicroPC]

Great question - We'd go for the Ti. Despite having less VRAM, the Ti has more CUDA cores and will give you better performance in games and renders, unless you're bottlenecked playing at 4k or working on something really big. YMMV though, make sure to research whatever games or programs you're running in respect to the card itself.

[@Rombodonbojonbo]

Bro get the 6700xt its better

[@silverfoxvr8541]

This is horrible advice. 8GB is NOT enough today. Period. Hogwart's Legacy is a good example, as are most VR games. I have a 3080 10GB and it was getting DESTROYED by modern games, mostly due to VRAM issues. The 3060 will be around running games long after the 8GB Ti is in the trash bin.@@VelocityMicroPC

[@thom_the3rd]

What about 6gb v ram does it support gaming ?

[@VelocityMicroPC]

6GB is still enough for most titles, yes.

[@thom_the3rd]

@@VelocityMicroPC thanks

[@defeatSpace]

I want ALL THE VRAM, WHERES MY 5090?!?!?!?!

[@EthenGreen-i5k]

48gb RTX Quadro for a workstation IF you have the money. Paired with a Threadripper CPU. For gaming 16gb should be the minimum for a 4k capable pc. 12gb for 1440p and 8gb for 1080p. Any thing below them would really struggle in today games.

[@johnsey2625]

[@VelocityMicroPC]

Any issues while running other applications or games? Or is it just Minecraft?

​@@bubbagump1025 we need more information than just your specs it could be the components or it could be a software issue.

Hi currently have this spec Msi A320-A pro Ryzen 5600 Rtx 3060 12gb 16gb 3200mhz ram 1tb ssd 600w 80 plus psu Should i upgrade my to 4070 super or just upgrade the cpu? I want my pc can be used for long term. I only care for fps than graphic.

[@NoOne-dk8zh]

We bought MSI katana 15 b12V, it has 4070 rtx with 8gb vram, Is that considered good for video editing and quite possibly games?

[@VelocityMicroPC]

Yes that's a very good upper mid range card

[@TheMsr47gaming]

How does it game ? I would not expect 8gb to last very long with how developers don't optimize their shit for pc's anymore.

[@NoOne-dk8zh]

@@TheMsr47gaming it's quite good actually but it's still in midrange which I am satisfied with the value for my money. Get's like 60+fps on ark survival ascended on 1080p medium + high setting. Although the cpu is only i7-12650h which is also midrange, but I don't think this and the 4070 is a good pair.

[@BrianTalmage-s3w]

​@TheMsr47gaming one thing that you have to be careful of is even though it is a 4070 laptop gpu on the smaller machines they under power the gpus to the point where a fully powered 4060 laptop gpu will actually preform better than the under powered 4070 they put in your laptop. Nothing like paying extra for the 4070 but ending up with less preformance than a 4060. That almost feels criminal with how expensive gaming laptops are these days!
