Looking to answer 2 questions. Is higher memory on your graphics card better for gaming. And what is the memory necessary to play Starcraft 2 on max settings? (Not the bare minumum but the safe amount)
4 GB will see you right for all your gaming needs. 2 GB is doable but 4 GB is the sweet spot. Some games are now pushing 3-4 GB but there are not any that will currently benefit from 8 GB.
Memory in graphics card is different from the memory from RAM. Some graphics card have higher mmory but not all is being used so i must say 2gb is good enough for Graphics card. In terms of ram the safest would be 4gb

You need to reread his post. He asked about memory on a GRAPHICS CARD. Not SYSTEM memory. (And 8 GB is the sweet spot for system memory anyway, not 4GB. 4GB system memory is the minimum for decent gaming)

True. For some reason I did not pick that up. Anyway the world is still spinning on its axis.
