Do PC gamers feel 12GB of VRAM is simply not enough for the money in 2024?

So many options, with small differences between them, all overpriced to the high heavens. I'm sticking with my GTX 1070 since it serves my needs and I'll likely keep using it a few years beyond that out of spite. It cost $340 at the time I bought it (2016) and I thought that was somewhat overpriced. According to an inflation calculator, that's $430 in today's dollars.

Ditto. It's a great card and I don't feel I'm missing out over what newer cards offer.

It'll do for the few pc games I play. FFXIV don't need much to run. Even handles HL Alyx.
