Well, I did say the difference isn't zomfg and the main reason I am telling him to wait for DDR4 is for future upgradability when DDR3 will more or less get discontinued or when DDR4 will outdo DDR3. And if that other dude is right, an AMD 380X might come out this year. The point I was trying to get across was that if he waited a little longer, it would be better in the long run for him if could. And more VRAM is generally better for higher resolution gaming


But it also depends if your GPU will be able to push the games at that resolution. A 970 won't push a lot of 4K 8th gen titles. It would be better to get one 970 now and then a SLI later for 4K. Then he would have the memory and the power to push the pixels.
