So I'm building a super cheap gaming rig for my little brother and I really don't have much money (I also live in a third world country were pc parts are way more expensive than normal). So I'm recycling most parts that I own previously and the only thing that it's left to get is a gpu.

After looking in the market of old/used/new parts I have got two choices right now: a factory refurbished hd 7770 1gb or a new r7 350 2gb(the r7 350 is a tiny bit more expensive). I know that both gpus are basically the same card but the thing is how much of a difference the 2gb vs 1 gb of vram do in gaming with low gpus. Also by the specs the the hd 7770 is a little bit better with more stream processors and better clock speed.

So if you guys were in my shoes, which gpu would buy?
Thanks for helping out.

Thank you, I was realizing that for such low card 2gb of vram wouldn't be much of an upgrade.

It was among the options, but the sad part is that the 1030 is 35$ dollares more and I already overstretch my budget just for reaching the 7770/350 and not ended up with a gt 730/710 crap.
Thank you for the response :)
