In 2016 £250 bought a 8GB Radeon RX 480 around launch time.
In 2023 £280 you can now buy a card which is about 2-3 faster but still has only 8GB of VRAM
Now, 8GB on the 480 back in 2016 might have been overkill, but 8GB in 2023 is pretty low.
(Yes, there are worse cards like the RTX 3070 which is a lot faster still but come with the same 8GB, or the RTX3080 which does come with whole extra 2GB but then is is much faster than this so the ratio of performance to VRAM is poor.)
Now a inflation calculator does say £250 in 2016's money is nearly £350 now but still.
