Got the same card and you can definitely run smaller models on 8GB. There's no need to pay 200-300 bucks for a 4Gb ram upgrade though. Might be a nice card for people on the lower end but not in our cases. But yeah, I'd really like more vram too, especially with how expensive the higher end cards get - which AMD won't even bother with anymore anyway. Really hoping for something with 16+ GB for a decent price.
Yeah, I really don't need anything higher than 6700/7700 XT performance, and my 6650 XT is still more than sufficient for the games I play. All I really need is more VRAM.
If Intel sold that, I'd probably upgrade. But yeah, 12GB isn't quite enough to really make it make sense, the things I can run on 12GB aren't meaningfully different than the things I can run on 8GB.
