Well it only matters if the chip is bandwidth starved, so you also have to have a die large enough to need more memory bandwidth. Typically this only matters in certain types of games or at high resolutions.I'm skeptical of this framing. How much die size is really taken up when going from a 128-bit bus to a 192-bit bus?
The point is it's not as simple as just adding more memory to achieve higher performance, everything else has to scale too.
The 4060 Ti 16 GB will be a flop because the tier of card doesn't need that much memory, and the premium won't be worth it. Exactly the same as with RAM, more only matters if you are actually using it, otherwise it makes zero difference to performance.
