If you are choosing between the two to buy, the cheapest 7770 is $80. The cheapest 7790 is $100. I'd skip both and get a 7850 if you are buying in that price range. The MSI 2GB 7850 for $110. Best choice.
The 7790 is a completely different chip from the 7770, which makes for a larger difference in performance than memory size. The 7790 is actually closer in performance to the new R7 260X.

Hi Casey I'm leaning to the 7790 but which one 1 or 2 gb they come both ways?
The 2 GB card would let you play games at higher resolutions, assuming the GPU is powerful enough to maintain a playable framerate at the higher resolution.

Thank you for the info looks like it will be a 2gb.
