Depends on the use case. And even at 1080p there are quite a few games that use 8gb or close to it. Ghostrunner and LOTF (2023) come to mind. Although tbf, I played the first one on my RX580 8G (I think) almost maxed out and it did fine.
But if you’re buying a card now, especially at new modern card prices, you want to have at least a bit of future proofing.
I have a game that eats 11 gb of vram on low at 1080p (I play it on windowed). It suffers from some Unreal engine shenanigans and it’s also a few years old.
UE is probably the worst engine ever made, even games from 20 years ago look better than that blurry mess of an engine. I hope nobody makes any game on it anymore, most of them are also badly optimized, never understood why people like that engine.
You’re not wrong, but then there’s games like this that need at least 6 gb (more on dx12) to run on low without it running out of memory and either crashing or not launching. This is an actual issue with this particular game.
Even 8GB is fine to be honest, even at high settings. People are a bit dramatic about it.

Video editing and AI require as much VRAM as you can get. Not everyone uses the cards just for gaming.
Then don’t buy the current-gen low-end card for video editing, mate. Get previous-gen with more vRAM, or go AMD.

Just like normal ram, if you have more to use then it’ll get used. It doesn’t mean it requires more than 8gb in order to run well.
I played all of Cyberpunk on high settings with 8gb.
