No recommendations please, and sorry if this is a long question.
Very curious about this as I am planning to upgrade soon, and keen on purchasing either one of these cards.
CARD-1 (1GB OC)
1050 MHz Core Clock
28 nm Chip
896 x Stream Processors
1024 MB Size
128 -bit GDDR5
6000 MHz Effective
CARD-2 (2GB)
1000 MHz Core Clock
28 nm Chip
896 x Stream Processors
2048 MB Size
128 -bit GDDR5
5000 MHz Effective
Questions:
1.Which would be better for gaming? And why?
2.Which is more "future-proof"? (I heard most new games are using 1GB++)
3.Does this affect video encoding/decoding performance? (4K, etc)
4.Can the 2GB non-OC be overclocked by the user to a similar point?
5.Can the 1GB OC be overclocked even more than the factory overclock?

Info:
-Both cards are made by Sapphire.
-Both are GDDR5
-Both cards support mantle.
-Price difference in my area is $5, the 2GB version being the expensiver option.
Thankyou for your time, I really appreciate it.
