US EditionYou Thought 8GB VRAM Was Bad? Nvidia Might Stop Bundling It at All
Nvidia may stop bundling video RAM with GPUs, forcing partners to source memory amid rising prices and AI demand, potentially increasing costs and limiting smaller makers’ access.
- Recently, Nvidia may stop providing video RAM alongside its GPU chips to partners, VideoCardz reported citing Weibo leaker Golden Pig Upgrade but urged skepticism.
- Amid the AI gold rush, Nvidia may prioritize memory for AI GPUs as RAM prices have surged over the past month.
- Industry standard practice is for chip makers AMD, Intel and Nvidia to bundle GPUs with required VRAM, but Nvidia may stop bundling, forcing third-party card makers to source memory separately.
- Smaller card manufacturers could struggle to procure VRAM and be sidelined, while larger board makers face higher memory costs that may reduce retail GPU availability and choice for PC gamers.
- Market signals such as reported price hikes suggest current Black Friday GPU deals might be the last bargains, while AMD plans a 10% increase across Radeon graphics cards, raising GPU pricing pressures.
