Hello,

Originally I was going to go with the standard 2GB version of the 670, but now, looking at Newegg's prices, it seems that I'm only paying like $20 more... Check it out:

I already run two monitors and I'm going to switch my 2048x1152 23" for a 24" 144hz and eventually down the line I'd like to get triple those (though I might buy a 700 series by then).

Is there any reason for me not to buy the 4GB version? When will I start seeing performance differences? Bear in mind, I already run dual monitor.

That's what I'm thinking, only thing I'm thinking though is that I will probably go 700 series before I go triple monitor... So the question is which will have more resale value I suppose.

Go for the 4gb. Like SkateROck said, games are going to be more hungry ( if you think you gonna kept the cards for some time) and you are using triple monitor. And it's also only $20 more.

That was my thought too, but now that I'm thinking more I'll definitely have the money to buy a 700 series, the only reason I'm not waiting now is so I can get better than my 465. I'll probably buy a higher VRAM 700 series. Or do you think (within a 6 month period) that the 4GB will still serve me better than the 1GHZ verison?
