This generation is so dull and disappointing. I was at least hoping that NVIDIA will increase the amount of the VRAM, to no avail.

NVIDIA will increase the amount of the VRAM
This is something I would have never expected Nvidia to do. It's the perfect upsell strategy for a market environment where they have overwhelming dominance.
Selling a card for north of 1000€ with 16 GB of VRAM only is quite scummy practice, especially considering that the difference with the previous gen card is so marginal.
Looks like I'm sticking with my GTX 970
