Ok so about a week ago I purchased the MSI GTX 970 for $299 and it was backordered, so it won't be coming here until like mid-February. Now a few days after I ordered it, news started coming out that the GTX 970 doesn't utilize 4 GB of VRAM, and only goes to 3.5, the other 0.5 is stored and would be a last thing to boost it but it takes a toll on performance.
So my question is this, should I cancel my order of the GTX 970, I plan on playing 1920X1080p resolution and will have my games capped at 60 fps since I am running my pc on a HDTV. I have not ordered the cpu or motherboard yet, so thats why I am wondering, should I cancel the order and run from it or stick with it? I don't plan on playing any resolution higher than that and same goes for fps.
If I cancel it, maybe I should wait for a new GPU in the future that may be more powerful and of the same price. WHat do you think, would I be fine with my current set-up play style preference?
