I think you are talking about the 2GB for USD329, but for a 4GB, works out to be around $450 in AUD
my bad. yeah. its the 2gb. good thing that the prices are dropping now.
am liking the gtxes now as the new cards have 2 dvi ports rather than 1. there are limited choices in the AMD camp for this requirement :/
Is there any benefit to 4GB over 2GB, at any res that a 770 (or even 780) can do smoothly at max settings, even with current games?
People like 4GB to "future proof" but surely 2GB will never bottleneck a 770?
i think the bottleneck is on the bus speed. so even when having a higher capacity, a slow bus will struggle to fully utilise all the memory before the RAM needs to be refreshed again.
if that makes sense?
i dont oc my stuff, so i will just stick with the cheapest 770 (or whatever that's value for money) reference.
i do however run numbercrunchers on the GPU when I am idle. :D
I prefer the new price for the Galaxy GTX770 GC 2G $389…. so close to pulling the trigger on this to SLI (needs free shipping to seal the deal). Payed $450 a couple of months ago for my current one.

Just hanging out to see the Australian price on the AMD R9 290X and the new GTX 780 TI.
I think it will be better for you to invest in a 4gb card from now on. with the new generation of gaming i imagine textures resources will be using up a lot more memory.
But these theortical next-gen textures - will a 770 be able to use them smoothly with other settings maxxed?
Many PC games already have very hi-res textures, what does it take to fill up 2GB right now?
My guess is as good as yours, but the GTX 670 I have in my setup was better than the 7970 at time of purchase. with newer games im seeing my card start to struggle while the 7970 is managing on games such as battlefield 4 http://www.techspot.com/review/734-battlefield-4-benchmarks/…
2gb is good almost perfect for 1080p but check these out

If I was just buying my first 770 now, yes I agree. But I already have a 2Gb 770, so if I bought a 4Gb 770 I would be wasting the extra $50-$60 (2Gb), as with SLI it will use the lowest spec to match. i.e with a 2Gb and a 4Gb in SLI both will only use 2Gb, or a standard and an OC version it will match the standard card. I only use if for a 1080p monitor (and a second monitor for my battlelog/map).
The card and deal I mentioned has its own thread now.
770 is a bit too exp at the moment when you can get it delivered under 400usd from amazon.
