that's what I said, the memory bandwidth is already baked into the numbers you see. the cache increases mean that you don't need as much actual memory bandwidth - it's the same thing AMD did with RDNA2.

AMD reduced the memory bus by 25% on the 6700XT relative to its predecessor and 33% on the 6600XT relative to its predecessor, so, if you think that will cause those cards to age more poorly...

RDNA 2 is dogshit as well, lmao. I'm not defending them either.

The cache increase didn't do shit since the previous generation Ampere performs better at 4K than Ada Lovelace.
