Is 2gb really enough for the next few years?
The only reason I'm not going to SLI my build now is because I am worried about the 2gb of Vram that I have. Although I may need it when my 3d monitor arrives. |
Looking at current PC benchmakrs I've personally ran, I wouldn't hesitate to build a GTX 770 SLI 2GB rig and use it for the next 3-4 years.
Unlike ethomaz though, I don't see consoles pushing PCs to the point that VRAM would be limiting. He seems to think that all PC games are made with limitations because of current gen consoles and that next gen consoles will make these PC game programers unleash the true power of game development.

Yeah you're probably right. It's a GTX670 that I have so I should be able to find a few deals on it. Want to SLI it but was just wondering. Sorry for the hijack.

People on forums are saying that Nvidias GK104 cards (660Ti, 670, 680, 770...) can't even utilize more than 2 GB of RAM properly. So those people buying 4 GB cards may be wasting their money.
I personally ran a GTX 670 SLI rig 6 months ago before I switched everything to AMD. You will be more than happy with performance gains and won't see a single VRAM bottleneck on 1080p. At 3X 1080p surround you may start seeing bottlenecks in 1-2 years.
