Quick question

[Ritsugamesh]

Looking to buy myself a new gpu and the GTX 570 interests me greatly. I game at 1920x1200 and obviously know it's got 1280mb of video ram.

People have been getting more and more concerned about available video memory and I'd just like to know whether this will be enough to game at high settings on current/future games?

Quick replies would be appreciated! Cheers guys.

current - yes
future - I'll just get me crystal ball out

no but seriously very few games are starting to utilise more, and even then its only at full detail with high AA, AA actually eats up quite a bit, and Im more than happy to turn it down if needed (havent needed to yet though)

2 GTX470s could be picked up for a similar price to a 570, more powerful and more memory

Same memory in terms of actual usage though.
