Are you confusing system ram with gpu ram? I can't see anything to suggest that game needs 4gb of gpu ram

If there is any truth in that then its poor programing and the game is destined to fail as so few people will be able to play it.

Is the 780 better for long term tho? because of the vram.

If it was my money I would buy the 980 without thinking twice about. My personal feeling is by the time games actually need more than 4gb to run at 1080p both those cards will be very old. Just an opinion though.

I dont know. Watch Dogs needed 3.5 legitimately. So I bet by the end of 2015 AAA games will use 4gigs of ram easily.
