Hello!
I'm currently picking out a new GPU for my system to replace my aging 9800GT. I plan to have three monitors. However, I don't expect to game much (as I'm currently a student); I'll be programming (involving "intensive" 3D graphics), doing homework (i.e. MS Office), CAD work, occasional video editing for school projects, and in my spare time, gaming (BF3, TF2, Portal, FSX, etc.). I don't expect to use all three monitors for gaming (except for FSX).
Given this, would it be more wise to get a GTX 760, a 760 with 4GB RAM, a 770, or a 770 with 4GB RAM?
I've read online that the 4GB doesn't really matter because of the bandwidth of the cards.
Here are some cards I've been eyeing:
Thanks!
