I guess; but to anyone out there reading this : the cheapest available rtx with the memory you need is likely just fine for experimentation unless you're dead set on experimenting with some notoriously heavy hitting large-vram suites. no need for such heavy equipment just to experiment with.

although I understand the plight -- I routinely buy heavy equipment that is far and above beyond what I need and then fruitlessly hope for it to pay for itself , I have a garage full of such purchases!
