Yea it should have said what's the best gpu with a £300 budget. We really would be setting our selves up to be ripped a new one classing any gpu at £300 as budget.

Ok so the options are ;

980 ti
Sapphire fury
Rx480 nitro (looks to be weakest)

I would wait and see what the 480 nitro brings to the table.

If you don't intend to change your monitor in the near future, the 480 is a great card at 1080p.

No problem. It is said that in computer programming there are only two things that are actually hard. Semaphore handling, cache invalidation and bounds checking.

So if you're given loads of empty VRAM and there's even a chance that you might still need the cached data already there (no matter how tiny that chance), you might as well just keep filling it up until you've filled it. Doesn't mean you need it. It's the graphics card equivalent of people who own fifty pairs of shoes. Doesn't mean they have a hundred feet.

Yeah, I do get it.

Similarly, I like to fat provision all our servers. Makes sure we don't allocate more storage than we actually have available on our vSAN.

Opinions vary so much on which one to get and when your as indecisive as me it's terrible haha.

I'd say get a Fury and run 1440p via dsr with the monitor you have now,
I'm running a Fury Tri-x o/c edition with a 1080p monitor and it's great. The times when the memory is an issue tends to be down to texture file sizes like with Rise of the Tomb Raider but I found that dropping from very high to high textures fixed it with practically no visual loss.

Having said that, personally I wouldn't buy a 4gb card but that's more because I plan on moving to a 21:9 monitor this year which will require more ram but as far as a Fury running games on a 1080p screen as I said I do it with everything increased to 1440p through dsr/vsr and it has no problems whatsoever.
I've had the card for a year and it's been a good year on the gaming side of things.
