GPU Memory, and Clogged Pipes (Part 1 - PS1 and N64) - #GPUJune2

What is the largest factor that makes GPUs tick, besides the core clock? It's the memory, which can cause a GPU pipeline to flow or grind to a halt.
This video goes over the basics of why a GPU pipeline is memory intensive and goes over a detailed example with the PlayStation 1 and Nintendo 64. This video was made as part of #GPUJune2.
