@dmelsie

What i ment is the prices that my supplier gave me, at 8,800 ( give or take ) GTX260 Core216 OC edition nana. ofcourse this is not the SRP.

used to be - 1gb was a waste on geforce 8-9 series. 512vs1gb.

.edited.
copy pasting what i posted on other forums.

finally going 1792mb. bahala na. piyongan na lang.

this is my main reason -
im going sli thats for sure. id rather have SLI of 1792mb recognized as RAM than the SLI - 896mb version.
below are somewhat my other reasons.

Review: Ati Radeon HD 4890 versus Nvidia Geforce GTX 275 - Test, Ati Radeon HD 4890, Nvidia Geforce GTX 275, RV790, graphics card - PC Games Hardware
gtx 260 (896mb) vs gtx 275 (896mb) - gtx 275 gained avg of 3-5fps
then look at the 512mb vs 1gb
4870 512mb vs 4870 1gb - on some games - 1gb gained 5-10fps+, 1-5fps on others


this site AnandTech: ATI Radeon HD 4890 vs. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 275
1gb version vs 512mb also gained 1-5fps

on this site, they compare 896mb and 1796mb.
crisis - no notable gains
war in conflict gained 5-10fps
company of heroes - gained 4fps.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

buy gtx 275 896mb and expect 2-5 more fps than the gtx 260 sp216.
or
gtx 260 sp216 - 1792mb and expect 1-2 more fps (just like buying gtx 275) and 5-10 probably on other games and future games

i don't think our eyes could tell the difference with those fps increases tho...
