I am simply curious as to WHEN (theoretically) high bandwidth RAM will be utilized on gaming?
My gut tells me this generation of gaming has ground itself to a financial standstill for daring new AAA games like those games that came out to try new things and really push systems to their red lines. Games like Crysis, Metro, Soul Reaver 1, Oblivion, Just Cause 2 and many more seem to be gone and I was truly wondering what value there was anymore in an investment of a x99 system with DDR4 3000+ MHz RAM. I find myself waiting on Just Cause 3 and the million years yet to come Elder Scrolls VI...but by then DDR-Bagillion may be out.
It's not a matter of need but of want, but patience tells me this generation has flopped. 2 years in and not a single good game really breaks my heart.
Of course, I always like those wild and strange games that try new things, and the economy doesn't seem like it will allow for it anymore not that games cost tens of millions to create vs hundreds of thousands.
