I know a lot of people have asked this question but everyone seems to be asking the question about using multiple monitors for a single game, and asking if the 4GB model is worth it?

These were the cards I was looking at: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Productcompare.aspx?Submi...

I play EVE Online and use all three of my monitors, at 1080P, to display multiple clients at the same time. With that said, would spending the $40 or so more for a 4GB card be worth it in this regard? I do plan on eventually grabbing another GTX 770 within the next year but, for now, I'll be running my three monitors off of a single card.

Thank you in advance for any comments/suggestions.

the 770 isn't really fast enough to fully utilze the 4gb. the 4gb only comes in useful when you go multimonitor (or just higher resolution in general), or sli. the asus and gigabyte both have great coolers you can't go wrong with either

Great, thank you very much for your quick responses.

So is the 4GB model good for multi-monitoring gaming when playing one game, or will it actually be utilized more, compared to a 2GB version, if I play the same game, with multiple clients open, across all three monitors?

1 770 won't be able to utilze 4gb at a playable frame rate. so unless you plan to go sli i'd say go with the 2gb
