it's not worth it if you have the 3gb version already just stick with it. however if you plan on going higher resolutions the 3gb will start to become a bigger bottleneck, see mirror's edge on Hyper settings @ 1080p for instance here you can see that it is drawn to its knees because of the shortage of Vram

IMO, Gigabyte's G1 is the best (if you don't mind coil whine)

If you don't want coil whine, get the EVGA GTX 1060 with the iCX cooler....

hi guys

 

i got a question im gonna buy the: ASUS VG248QE

 

which port do i have to use for 144Hz displayport

 

some people say u can just use the HDMI is this true????

and which cable should i buy for the monitor??

 

if you buy an HDMI 2.0 cable,  it will work 1080p@144fps. but please check if the monitor supports hdmi 2.0 , if yes, you can either go with DisplayPort or HDMI 2.0 but if the monitor doesn't support HDMI 2.0 then you will have to stick with a display port cable to reach 144fps. keep in mind the video card you are using could have a hard time playing modern games on high settings at 144fps.

 

enjoy the monitor buddy, im loving mine with all my heart, 144fps is worth it

There's no such thing as an "HDMI 2.0 cable".  They're all the same.

3 GB Vram, check your vram usage when you up your frames. Also your signature indicates a 980 Ti, that is better than a 1060 6 GB >_< The problem people have with a 3 GB 1060 is the poor excuse of 3 GB Vram on the card, a lot of games maxed out in 1080p use around or over 4 gb Vram and for those specific titles he will suffer in fps loss

Ah yes, forgot about the VRAM issue. Good to know, thanks for the info.
