or fork out a few more pounds for

this one, also i am open to going in sli in the future.
I would normally get the 4gb vram version but with gpu boost i was wondering if i should get the evga version

evga & msi are both good. i think the evga superclocked is tad faster but i uess the msi is a better cooling system

Do you think the 4gb version would be better at higher resolutions or would it not

4gb is fine for multi monitor setup. else than that u can use the extra gb to pull up your settings or apply AA. most member will always reccomend the 2gb version. however with the next gen consoles & games like crysis 3 or skyrim or metro...2 gb is limit has been crossed

what is your budget btw & location? its possible to get a better insight if possible

Thanks for the recommendations but the 4gb ones are out of my current budget and i was just wondering if the 4gb zotac gtx 770 would perform much worse than the 4 gb cards you've listed

no, they have the same nvidia gpu but just that they have known better cooling boards than zotac.

Yeah i know that but wouldnt gpu boost 2.0 make the evga,msi versions perform better

 

[caj]

no, gpu boost isnt ltd to evga or msi but available to all nvidia card

no, gpu boost isnt ltd to evga or msi but available to all nvidia card

Thats not what I meant i was saying if the evga one and msi have better cooling then gpu boost 2.0 will be better giing better performance (gpu boost is dynamic changing on the temperature of the card)

 

[caj]

yes, i misunderstood your question.
