Review roundup http://www.bluesnews.com/s/142107/nvidia-geforce-gtx-770-announced

2GB VRAM may cause some issues at higher resolutions going forward tho, with multiplatform next gen games. Tho probably not for a few years.

 

Not likely. There are many games that already need 2GB of VRAM or more for their maximum vanilla settings. Bioshock Infinite being one of the recent ones.

In Bioshock: Infinite's case actually more of a bug than anything the game has bad memory management, it's why the game has stuttering issues. But yes there are some edge cases where more than 2GB is required for ultra settings already, and that will become much more common over the next couple years. But honestly you can usually drop one or two things down a notch and be fine.

If you really want to max everything then yes you are going to want more VRAM and also a more powerful GPU than the 770 anyway.
