Nowadays even at 1080p 8GB of Vram doesn't cut it.

Doesn't cut what? Web browsing? Watching videos? Playing new games?

Playing new games at high settings. The card often does have raw performance to handle it but due to lack of VRAM results in terrible framerate or lack of detail

Ah, that makes sense. I rarely-if-ever play heavyweight games.

Run new games at 144fps at maxed settings in native 4k, which as we all know is completely necessary and extremely distinguishable from 60fps at medium settings with upscaling.

My 1060 would like a word, at 940*544 so it'll be blurry. But it would like to talk.
