    The problem with new generation nvidia cards would be that they’d much more faster, efficient and stable but crippled by low VRAM and most probably $50-100 more expensive.

      NVIDIA being greedy is nothing new. Last gen, the only worthwhile card was 4090. The rest was simply overpriced crap. I don’t expect them to make any better next year, that’s because they have almost complete monopoly on the market. And that’s bad for everyone except their shareholders.

        Which is why I feel Intel releasing well before 5xxx series is out gives them some space to shine. If indeed 5060 is 8gb SKU, they would win again.

          That’s going to be an utter disgrace if NVIDIA again releases a 300+ card with only 8 Gb of VRAM. But I think Intel will compete more with AMD who aren’t so stingy on the VRAM.
