If what I was told earlier is true, it should only be about 20-40 more for the 8gb card. Give you that little extra cushion for the future.

I do hope so, It was rumoured to be around £160 in England, but I saw a leak of a picture which included the 8GB model costing £240. I was unsure if the card performed any different or if the VRAM was just doubled. Although it most likely would help with games coming in many years to come.
