So, interesting topic here, with little results here or anywhere regarding this, so here goes:
I bought my 970 g1 a while ago (about august 2015) and haven't noticed the VRAM issue that everyone complains about. While doing some school work I thought to myself, if DRAM can be taken out and upgraded, why can't VRAM? I hunted and found little, no results on replacing VRAM on the 970 to get rid of the 3.5 buffer..
I want to replace the nerfed chip on the 970 with a chip that isn't nerfed, but still makes the card 4GB? I don't mind the warranty but I don't want to bork the card? ?
So I ask you, reader, is it possible to replace the shoddy VRAM?
