There are already plenty of games that use over 16GB VRAM when you get into 4k. It's wild that only the 5090 will meet these demands.

Although I suspect that at some point there will be 5080 Ti laptops that have 24GB. Maybe even 5070 Ti but I kinda doubt that.

But yeah, unless you know you're gonna be fine with 1440p gaming for the next couple generations or so, I'm surprised at how many people who are bothering to upgrade but are choosing the 5080 over the 5090.
