Can't Find Asus GTX 770 4GB

[Build-O-Matic]

Hey guys, I wanted to know what happened to the Asus GTX 770 4GB GPU because I have been searching for it and it isn't available in Newegg, Microcenter and Amazon, its only available in the UK (Dabs).

Thanks.

Sorry for double post. Wasn't my fault.

Looks like they arent in stock, but other brands are available, does it have to be Asus?

Not really, but I like the ASUS design. One more thing, is 4gb VRAM needed to play at 1440p? How much would 2gb last? What would be better for future SLI?

4gb of vram is for SLi... the card itself isn't really fast enough to be bottlenecked by 2gb in normal use.

So, should I buy the 4gb one and in a year buy anotherone for sli?

up to you. generally i suggest people not buy gpus with "SLi" in mind. but the 770 is a strong enough gpu that you could stretch out the life of your build a bit a year down the road with another one. up to you, but in my opinion, sli/xfire still doesn't work good enough to be worth it for the most part.
