Video Card Decision

Looking at getting the EVGA 760 in either 2gb or 4gb. I would rather the 4gb version but they are not in stock at the microcenter by my house. Should I just go with the 2gb, which I could pick'up today, or wait and order the 4gb off of newegg or some other website. Also this might be a dumb question but is there really a big difference between the two card sizes? I'd only be running one monitor at 1920x1080...If anyone has any other suggestions let me know. Not looking to spend more than $300-$330

Just get the 2GB version, you don't need 4GB with that setup/resolution.

If you don't plan to SLi and staying at 1080, get the 2GB.
If I was you I would look into buying a 660 Ti if you can find one for under $180. It will outperform the 760.
Edt: Only at low resolutions like 1080.

Yea, I'm looking for something that will give me a little room to grow for the future.

Than GTX 760 no doubt, much larger memory bus will welcome higher resolutions and VRAM usage.
For you yo even add eye candy at resolutions great than 1080 and still get acceptable frames you will need to SLi. I still recommend the 2GB card.
The GTX 760 at 1100 isn't something to really "grow" on. Its a mid teir card to fix performance issues now.

I'll be upgrading from a 550ti at either 1gb or 2gb, cant remember, so almost anything would boast a performance increase for me.
