I've come across a good enough sell to be able to afford this awesome card in my new build, but as excited as I am, the video ram has me worried. I feel like Nvidia is really cutting it close with only 2gb.
Lastibility is the most important part of this purchase for me and I really figure to see this purchase carry well into the next console generation and run those games with just as much if not better quality and at a greater resolution. However, will games at that point be using much more than the 2gb video ram that this card carries?
I know arma 3 is good example of such a game that will easily exceed current vram, but will that soon become standard by 2013/2014 or whenever the consoles launch? I guess what I'm asking is how future proof is the gtx690 really?
