Why Sould I Buy Nvidia GTX770 4GB Edition? (1080p)

[ofek_g]

I want to upgrade my graphics card and I want to buy the Nvidia GTX770.
I have 550w power supply and 3 HDD.
My screen is 1080p and I don't plan on getting a better screen or one more.

So want to know how the 4GB will benefit for me and if my power supply will be good for this card.

Usually a 2GB GTX 770 is enough for 1080p. There are exceptions though so 4GB is not a bad idea.

A good 550W PSU should be enough for your build. Are you ocing?

GTX 770 is a 230W GPU(reference model), and will require 20 Ampere approx., maybe 10-15W more for a non-reference model. So if you have a decent 550W PSU then it should not be of any trouble.

And a 2GB edition of that card will be enough for you, but a 4GB wont bite you either. Good luck.

I don't think I will OC.
And the differences between the 4GB version is like 30$.
I think I will go with the 4GB version from Gigabyte.

4GB card will costs you money and do you no good. Go for 2GB.

go for 2GB one . you dont need more than 2gb for 1080p gaming . i personally own a palit gtx 770 2gb and i am 1080p gamer so far my experience with the card has been awesome it pretty much max out everything

and if you plan to change your power supply get corsair tx 750 it will give u a head room if u plan to do sli later on

4GB will serve you better going forward as more games start using more memory. 2GB is pretty weak now days with the next gen games beginning to crank out.

I have Palit 7704gb and yeah 2gb is as good. Until the games come out that need more Ram. Watchdogs for one in Ultra. I am running on Intel i5 4670k with 16gb ram 2133mhz and have it set to share a extra 3.5GB on graphics . So total is 7.5GB
Perfect well nearly. Now getting a couple 4k screens so upgrading to GTX970s x2
If looking for GTX770 4GB Palit Jetstream 2.5 years warranty left
Perfect condition all comes with as new make a fair offer and is yours.
