We will see...I may upgrade before maxwell. I want that Nvidia Shield lol

Dual gtx 770s would be a nice upgrade, wouldnt break the bank after I sell the 7950s and would fix my microstuter...


Wouldn't dual 770's suffer from massive ram bottlenecks? I mean, I would feel awful spending $800 on a gpu set up to not even be able to max out bf4.

On a single screen at 1080p...not even close.  Nvidia handles RAM usage better than AMD and where an AMD card uses 2500 MB of RAM, you will see the Nvidia one use 1500 MB.

Also I'm not one of those guys that has to run every game absolutely at max only to generate heat and use more power. 4XAA + 16XAF on a 24 inch screen is plenty for a nice image while gaming...

With that said, I do game on 3 monitors, which could become a bottleneck a year or two down the road. So I may get the 4GB models...


IF you're not going to max out games, why get a new two 770's? It's aslo been confirmed that maxing out textures will use more than 2gb on BF4. Also, I saw a lot of people complaining about almost using 2gb wih their 680 in 1080p, my 7950 has never been over 2gb either. Also I'm pretty sure a few games will already be using more than 2gb ram with your set up. A lot of games this year will also use more than 2gb ram with max settings. Especially amd games.
