GTX 970 modified with 8GB Vram increases by up to 40% performance in games

The video shows that the modified GTX 970 does not bring major performance differences in games at the time it was released, such as Red Dead Redemption 2. However, in more recent games such as Cyberpunk 2077 and Horizon Forbidden West, performance heels can reach up to 40%.

GTX 970 gains modified in tests performed

• Red Dead Redemption 2 – No difference;
• GTA V ENHANCED EDITION (2025) – No difference;
• Counter-Strike 2 – 3%;
• Plan Tale: Requiem – No difference;
• Cyberpunk 2077 – Low Settings – 5%;
• Cyberpunk 2077 – High Settings – 16%;
• Horizon Forbidden West – DLC Burning Shores – 40%;
• The Last of Us: Parte 2 Remastered – 24%.

Vram helps give more longevity to components

The video produced by Peparaio Hardware should help give a new gas to the debate on how important Vram is to run modern games. As more players opt for resolutions like 4K, This has been an area that limits many GPUS to achieve the expected performance.

At the same time, manufacturers like AMD and Nvidia continue to defend models with 8 GB, as much of the audience is still content to play in 1080p. In this sense, the GTX 970 Mod also shows that Vram alone does not make miracles and other technical details have an impact as large as on the final experience.

However, as the channel well observes, a limited amount of memory may not be such a large obstacle now – but it will surely impact the longevity of a component. It is worth watching the full video, which brings good explanations about the operation of the modified GPU and the results offered by it.
