Hello all. I recently made a post here questioning whether or not I should go with two 560 Ti cards in SLI or one 580 and the majority of you said to go with the single 580 now and run another in SLI with it at a later date which is what I decided to do. So now my question is, is it worth it for me to spend the extra cash(About $90) for the 580 GPU with 3GB VRAM or just buy the cheaper 580 with 1.5GB VRAM? My monitor is a 27 inch running at 1920x1080 Res. I won't be running 3D or anything crazy like that. I would assume it's better to go with the 3GB 580, but I read somewhere that the extra VRAM will actually HURT me in FPS if I'm only running on 1920x1080 Res. I don't know if that's true or not so that's why I'm here to ask.
And which brand would you guys recommend I get? I've only ever used XFX and Evga. I've had great experience with EVGA so far and pretty crappy experience with XFX. The two 580 3GBVRAM cards I was looking at are these two -
