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 allotment. It then came to light that the graphics card only had 3.5 GB of the high-speed RAM, with the remaining 0.5 GB running roughly 80 percent slower, as Ars Technica reported last year.
