GPU: What should I buy?

[Yoo Song Won]

There is a XFX Radeon R9 380 4GB and MSI Radeon R9 380 2GB on Ebay for the same price... Obviously the XFX is better at the same price but it doesn't match my set up and looks not that ugly... I was wondering how much of a difference there is between 4GB and 2GB and which on should I buy... Appearance of performance? 

 

This tells me a bit about the difference: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2015-radeon-r9-380-2gb-4gb-review

Get the 4gb card. If you don't like the looks just pay a bit more for the 4gb MSI card.

Higher amounts of vram are always preferable but not always an issue. Some games will take advantage of more vram while others will not. The 380 should be powerful enough to take advantage of 3-4gb of vram.
