Hi guys,
Hopefully this isn't a super redundant question, but I'm looking to build a new desktop (mostly for gaming and some video editing, plus schoolwork) and I'm noticing that the videocards being recommended by TR still mostly come with just 1GB of VRAM. Obviously the processors and architecture have improved vastly since I last built a computer in 2009, but I'm surprised that the memory hasn't increased proportionally. I remember how GTA IV gobbled up VRAM at even modest texture detail levels, and I was wondering if I would be better served by spending more money to buy a 2GB graphics card. I'm not a power FPS gamer or anything, but I'd like to be able to run older games (like GTA IV or New Vegas) very well and have some runway for the next 2-3 years of PC games. Any advice or thoughts would be highly appreciated.
