A question. Should i buy a new graphics card? I have a decent rig i think. 8 gb ram. Sandy bridge 2500k overclocked to 4,4 ghz. SSD. The problem with my rig is vram. I have an nvidia 570 gt 1280 mb card which cost about 250-300 euro. This card is good i think but lacks in vram to play skyrim with high res mods. With other games its fine. I have seen new cards, gt 630 for example, for about 70 euro. These cards have 4 gb vram and should be great (?) for skyrim but my current card outperforms gt 630 in bechmarks (https://community.futuremark.com/hardware/gpu/NVIDIA+GeForce+GT+630/review#). What would you have done? Buy a new one? Can you run a rig with 2 cards and swith to the one with more vram when youre going to play skyrim? Whats the downside of the cheaper card?Â
