Why do all similar products have a hard limit on the 128 GB VRAM part? For that price, I hoped to get at least 224 GB VRAM

The 495 is going to support 192 GB. It depends on the memory bus.

128 bit: 96 GB?

256 bit: 192 GB

512 bit: 384 GB?

1024 bit: 768 GB?

Because it’s a limit of the platform

All the gpu makers make all their profit selling datacenter products. They don’t want consumer/home lab stuff with lower margins to replace their data center products so they handicap the vram in those products to make them less enticing for datacenter use.
