Im looking to upgrade my video card on a budget (~$150) for BF3. Something Im pretty clueless about is that practical value of having more video RAM, and how that compares to performance gains from higher clock rates.
My sole application is gaming; single monitor, without 3D. I havent really made any decisions, but this comparison illustrates the dilemma Im trying to overcome
EVGA 01G-P3-1556-KR
-vs-
EVGA 02G-P3-1559-KR
On the one hand, I get 2x the RAM; on the other, I get higher clock rates and save $30. For my purposes, would I expect to see meaningfully better performance from the 2GB card?
