    These threads always make me wish I had more disposable income :naughty:

    Anyway. TG (or trashcanman though it's probably too soon for him to answer) as you've had 1.5gb cards already and now got 3gb at a standard single screen res (2560x1440/1600) does the extra VRAM make a significant difference? Or is it only really very specific games (i.e BF3) that truly take advantage?

    Well, Crysis 2 maxed out, uses an average of 2.1GB vram at 2560x1600. BF3 uses the same. You will see newer games using more vram, so the 3GB cards, give plenty of head room, and takes away any vram limitation.:)
