R9 380 2GB vs 4GB

[PierreCCesario]

I'm planning to play games like BF4, GTA 5 and some indie games. For GTA 5, I want to have high-ultra quality settings. Will 2GB of memory suffice? Here's a video showing that the 2GB version can play it on high while on a good framerate:

Or should I just wait for a R9 380x (if that even comes out)?

4GB. All the way.

BF4 wont use more than 2GB in 1080p 60fps, also only get the new series form AMD if the pricing is appropriate

I will let this gameplay here with my r9 285 2gb. It has a good overclock btw and the game is runing Reshade with Lumasharpen and Cineon DPX filter.

so at the end of the day 4gb or 2gb? if the price difference is 20-30 bucks

I'd just pay a little extra for the 4 gb version. You never know what future games will do with VRAM usage.

ok thx

while at 1080p you won't often use more than 2gb vram I'd still get the 4gb as its still only $30 more.

GTA V maxed uses about 3gb for me
