I have used 8800gt, gts260, gts 450, gtx 750(current), these were all nvidia cards.One thing I marked about nvidia gpu is that they are costlier then amd and always have low vram.:kaola:

When I was googling I found that AMD's latest RX 480 which is even more powerful than gtx970 is available for only $ 199 :ouch:

199$ = 13000 to 14000 INR

At Rs.14000 Nvidia can offer gtx 750ti only which is way behind from RX 480 8gb.

Also this gpu is available in upcoming ps4k or neo, which has increased my interest towards it.

So I want to know that is this final that RX 480 will be of $199 which means 14000 rs or there will be different prices of this product in India.

I am asking this because I have to gather some money if it is more than Rs15000 and also I want to buy 8gb version of this gpu.

There are some videos in Hardware Unboxed and Digital Foundary showing the Vram usage of games showing only a few games like Minors Edge and Shadow of Mordor and GTA using around 3.5gb Vram even at 1080p, it also suggest 4gb of Vram enough for 1440p for few years, so its better go with the lower priced card now and wait for Vega releasing next year and see this http://blog.logicalincrements.com/2016/07/much-video-ram-need/
