GTX 770 4GB

Go to solution Solved by BaconPie,

Point taken, 4GB is around the price of an R9 290, but 2GB version is like 80$ cheaper, so 2GB for sure! Thank you for all the answers! :D

All depends on the resolution you play at. If you don't surpass single monitor 1080p the 2gb will be enough. For multi-monitor setups and higher resolutions like 1440p though you want the 4gb.

 

Edit: If you want 4gb the R9 290 would be a better choice when it comes to being on a budget though. If you have the money for a 780 I would recommend the EVGA cards.

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

2GB is fine if you're gonna get the 4GB card get a 780 or R9 290 instead because the 4gb's version price is near those 2 cards.

Is it worth it at 1080p, or the 2 GB is just fine?

Use 2GiB for 1080p, and if you are 1440p use two 770 4GiBs in SLI.

No, just get an R9 290

So what if I'm an AMD fanboy? Honestly, it's just because the pricing is way better here

You're not a fanboy of amd but a fanboy of amazing Price/Performance ;D
