Why do people care so much about vram volumes for gaming. In my experience (on gtx 1060 3gb) using texture sets that "requires" 4+ gb, makes absolutely no difference to frame rate, and stats show system mem is used perfectly to compensate. Also for work, very few applications utilize gpus properly (sadly) only very specialist stuff requires high vram and looking at the benchmarks for those, vram seems to have little effect.

So if it means paying less for the same gaming experience, sign me up for less VRAM. Spend it on sys, which gets much more use.

What are you smoking dude? My GTX 1650 with 4GB VRAM starts to struggle in Valhalla the moment I put Textures to HIgh, I have to compromise with medium just to be able to play the game else it stutters heavily. Some games like WD Legion don't even allow setting the Textures to higher settings than medium and this is just the beginning of the new generation of games. Things will become much worse in a few years.

If this means my Flow X13 with GTX 1650 Max-Q is getting replaced with a RTX 3050Ti in Q2, I'm going to be really mad.

Are you serious? Have you looked up 3gb 1060 vs 6gb 1060 in newer games? The difference is often much bigger than the 10% higher shader count would suggest.

The entry-level RTX 3050 Ti GPUs might first launch on laptops. According to the latest listings from Asus and Acer, the RTX 3050 Ti models only come with 4 GB of GDDR6 memory, so they are most likely limited to a 128-bit memory bus, and the minimum TGP is set to 60 W.
