For example if you had two 970s in SLI, you would have 7gb vram, correct?

1) gtx 970s have 4GB of vram each

 

2) dx 12 supports vram stacking

 

3) this does not mean game developers will implement vram stacking any time soon

 

4) graphics card manufacturers do not make drivers that enable vram stacking

 

5) you will not be able to stack vram for another 3-5 years

 

6) the 970 has 4GB of vram

GTX 970s have 4GB vRAM. 4 x 2 = 8GB.

I think it's 3.5 if I'm not mistaken. I could be wrong!

No, if they implement it, two 970s in SLI would total to 8GB of VRAM.

 

And the GTX 970 has 4GB of VRAM, not 3.5GB. (The last .5GB is just slow, but that doesn't mean it's not there.)

Greatest of all shitpost circlejerks

Except, he has the right idea.

 

Nope

Technically it can...

 

1) gtx 970s have 4GB of vram each

 

2) dx 12 supports vram stacking

 

3) this does not mean game developers will implement vram stacking any time soon

 

4) graphics card manufacturers do not make drivers that enable vram stacking

 

5) you will not be able to stack vram for another 3-5 years

 

6) the 970 has 4GB of vram

I agree with all except #5. I think we'll see it a hell of a lot sooner than that.
