Memory manufacturer who makes immense profit from memory -
"More memory is better so GPU's should have more memory buy more memory !"

Almost like they redid all their contracts to service exclusively Corporations and high profitable/exploitable markets. But yes gamers need more memory.

TBH, I feel like this was written a long time ago as part of Nvidia's planned RTX 50 SUPER marketing push. Micron has been a very strong partner for Nvidia on the GeForce side. They have always been the ones to get behind their GDDR?X standards fastest etc.
Sadly, the situation has changed. Micron are focusing its resources on where the profits are. That means less GDDR7 production and no RTX 50 SUPER. That doesn't mean that Micron don't need to rub it in and tell us we need more memory when we can't have it.

Indeed, But memory can help in a lot of instances in terms of smoothness as less assets need to be swapped out, I remember when the Star Wars Titan Xp's came out with 12GB of memory, Basically a full fat 1080 Ti, And that simple 1GB of extra memory made a pretty nice difference to certain games smoothness, Wasn't immense but you could "feel" it ingame.
Although Micron are going a little over the top with saying it's a bottleneck, Yeah sure in scenarios where 16GB isn't enough but that is rare unless you run 4K maxed out path tracing etc....
