PC gamers appear to be voting with their wallets, as the prices of 8GB AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT and Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti GPUs drop.

Despite their temptingly low prices, PC gamers appear to be rejecting 8GB graphics cards, with the prices of these cards dropping substantially compared to their 16GB equivalents. Right now, several AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB graphics cards are going for just $269.99, undercutting the MSRP by $30, and there are identical reductions available on Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB cards.

It’s telling that neither AMD nor Nvidia sent me samples of the 8GB versions of these cards, and it’s obvious why – 8GB simply isn’t enough VRAM to run some of the latest games at high settings now, let alone in two years.
