I have at the moment 2x asus gtx 960 strix 4gb as temporary gpu's and im gonna oc them a bit (not exterme since i might return them if benchmarks,prices and custom cards of the 1080 makes it worth buying)


I think theres a relation between how much vram the card has, the speed/bandwith and bus width

Like how many lanes,cars and the speed the cars drive

What is the best relation between amount of vram,speed/bandwith and bus width

I could go all they way to max it out and then go down a little to keep it stable 24/7.

Is there a oc where it's just perfect and has the best balanced oc

Oc for more performance or don't but the best is the highest your card is stable at. There's nothing you can change but speed so the others are irrelevant. Nvidia/amd calculate how much vram and bus width the gpu needs. Different gen may not require as much so you see modern cards are not as wide but typically does make up for it in speed. Same gen, higher model = wider, faster, more vram. You see lower cards with more vram for multiple monitor for office/trading/other tasks like that.

Using the vram is different than being limited by the bus plus that can be augmented by higher memory clock. Newer gens are more optimized memory caches and better compression so doesn't need as much as previous gens. But gpu performance is still what really matters.
