Don't put it in quotes. You know what you did.
8GB of VRAM is fine for right now. Obviously nobody is complaining at 1080p but not a lot of people buying top of the line GPUs for a standard 1080p. I run 1440p and I know a good chunk of people who are hitting FPS limits of 240 that are now upgrading resolutions. 8GB of VRAM is like 16GB of RAM. Yes, most modern titles will work flawlessly but that isn't going to be the case in the very near future especially if you plan of upgrading resolution.
DLSS isn't something to scoff at, I'll give green credit there, but relying on it to make up for the shortcomings seems like cope. They made a stupid call in order to slash prices and you're going to feel it later even with DLSS.
If you need Nvidia for niche applications to do work and make money, get that bread king, but if you're just a gaming enthusiast there's no reason to subject yourself to a company that fucking hates you.
