I have found several benchmarks on the 770 but they are all the 2gb card. I have a triple monitor setup and will be running 5760 x 1080 res in surround mode for gaming. I know I will need lots of vram to make this setup work effectively. Are there any benchmarks with this card running SLI? Thanks in advance!

You can't add VRAM like that, so it's still 2gb vs 4gb. And unless the game is using more than 2gb of VRAM, there is absolutely 0 performance difference between the two. What the 4gb gives you is more VRAM for when it is used, but if you look at the benchmarks, the 2gb isn't necessarily being hurt by only having 2gb.

I would recommend the 4gb ones if that's what you're trying to find out. But I wouldn't expect actual performance increases unless you're playing high VRAM games.

really? even at 5760 x 1080 resolution? If I had 4gb of vram vs 8gb it just seems like it would make a huge difference.... maybe I just need to look through the benchmarks of the single 2gb vs 4gb first.
