Hardware nvidia gpu Nvidia GTX 970 mod upgrades to 8GB VRAM, matches GTX 1060 in performance Up to 40 percent higher frame rates than 4GB version By Kishalaya Kundu May 28, 2025, 12:21 PM 7 comments ...

They’ve replaced the 512 MB modules with 1GB memory offering a higher clock ( 8 Gbps over 7 Gbps). Due to the change, the GTX 970 now counts with 8GB instead of the original 4GB VRAM.

I went from a 4GB GTX 970 to a 6GB RTX 2060, and the jump in performance was already staggering with a Haswell i7. I can only imagine how much better the jump to the RTX 3060 would be for you!

The most obvious is the GeForce GTX 970’s notorious 4GB RAM allotment, which Nvidia split into a full-speed 3.5GB segment as well as a drastically slower 512MB segment without telling customers.

Though advertised as a 4GB card, close examination after release revealed the GTX 970 in fact splits its memory up into two portions, one totaling 3.5GB, and the other half a gigabyte.

As you may recall, the suit in question alleged that NVIDIA made false claims about the GTX 970's hardware specifications by stating that the card carried 4GB of RAM when it actually came in at 3.5GB.

In early 2015, a group of customers found that the GTX 970—which was advertised to have 4GB of high-speed GDDR5 RAM—experienced performance issues when pushed to the limits of that memory ...

Nvidia specified the GTX 970 was equipped with 4GB of memory, which it was, but only 3.5GB was available at maximum bandwidth.

Nvidia may have reached an agreement to settle a class action suit brought against it over the GTX 970's 3.5GB effective memory configuration.

Nvidia settles a class action lawsuit that alleged false advertising charges against the company's GTX 970 graphics card, and it's going to be costly.
