My current computer is close to dying so I'm thinking of custom building a gaming PC. I'm pretty new to all of this which is why I'm asking about which GTX graphics card to get as there is quite a few. I'm planning on playing games like GTA V (when it comes out), ARMA 3 (when it comes out), BFBC2/BF3 etc. I don't know my budget for the graphics card, I just know the budget for the whole PC can go up to ~£700 but I'd like to get it as cheap as possible.
Basically:
-What is the difference between graphics cards with 1GB, 2GB and e.g. 1280MB of memory? Advantages? Worth getting 2GB over 1GB or not?
-Difference between GTX 560 and 560Ti?
-This one's pretty long but GTX 560 1GB vs GTX 560 2GB vs GTX 560Ti 1GB vs GTX 560Ti 2GB --VS-- GTX 570 1280MB
-What's the GTX 550 like in general? I've heard that the GTX 560s and above are much, much faster and it's worth spending a little more for the one's above the GTX 550.
Here's the other specs I plan on having:
Intel i5 2500k (I've heard this can outperform i7s when its OC potential is used + it's way cheaper)
4GB RAM
~80-250GB Hard Drive space + and external hard drive
Sorry for the long-winded question and thanks for your help in advance
