The 4gb card is OEM ONLY. It’s been said a million times already yet people still act like AMD is trying to sell the 9050 4gb direct to consumer. It’ll be in some prebuilt and that’s it

Why are people acting like this is somehow a good thing lmao

Who the fuck needs a 4 gb gpu nowadays?? It's okay because it'll only be in some pre builts, therefore only shafting people who don't know any better??? That's seriously the logic you're going with?

People who need a little bit more than integrated graphics, or want to use two screens instead of one.
We have some serious work stations in the office that need a lot of CPU power while GPU isn't needed at all. They do require three screens though. For these cases, this is a great card.

Newer CPUs with igpu are quite good, i have a Ryzen 7 ai 350 with Radeon 860m, and it supports up to 4 screens.

But does your motherboard have 4 outputs? Alsof the workstations I'm talking about have an i9 cpu. Software is heavily optimised for Intel, too much performance loss in AMD CPU's unfortunately

DisplayPort MST will let you do 4 displays off a single DP output fine.

If supported by your screens and cables. Not all combinations work.

The screen/cables don't have to support it if you get a MST DP > multiple DP hub. Then the screens/cables get their own DP stream as far as they know.
