GPU Memory and Clock speed

[Isaac003]

Hi, please could somebody help me, I'm planning on building a budget gaming PC in the near future.
For the graphics card, I am looking at two, which one would be better,
MSI GeForce GT 730 4GB (https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-n7304gd3v2)
or
Zotac GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB (https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/zotac-video-card-zt7060110m)
I intend to be to able to play games like GTA V and Left 4 Dead 2 with decent FPS on any settings.
I intend to pair it up with the parts listed on this link

any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

The GTX 750 ti has probably 3 or 4 times the performance of the 730. Anything lower than the GTX 750 is really not intended for gaming. On these low end cards, the amount of RAM is not a good indicator of the card's performance.

I'm not sure how prices would work out for you, but if you want to maximize performance, you would be better off only buying 8gb of RAM and investing the money saved into a better CPU or GPU.

That helps me a lot, thankyou very much. I was originally going with 8GB of RAM and then found a 16GB package of similar standard at a cheaper price, I'm not sure if that's just because of deals at the moment though.

I will look into investing in a better GPU but would like to keep the price at around £400. A better GPU may be an upgrade idea further down the line.

Thanks for your advice.
