Nice, that makes this little 'budget' card even more amazing. I wonder why nVidia does this, the GTX 280 has slightly more impressive specs but the 275 actually beats it in benchmarks and costs nearly $100 less. WTG nVidia.

Cos the GTX 280 is already phased out, the cards you see selling now are leftovers

What is the big deal, EVGA is already selling 1792mb GTX275's.

Anyway, must be great for GTA4.

no way engines use up 2gb of video memory, more like 1gb at high res if that at all. and by the time engines do use up 2gb this card will be a voodoo 2. last year we were content with 512mb and now suddenly 2gb comes out and we are playing the same engines.

Games such as GTA4 and Fallout 3 will be happier with more VRAM tbf. Still, I do see your point.

Yes, it does matter for games with massive textures if you want to bump up the settings and resolution, then 1+GB RAM is WAY better than 512 or 768MB.

The engine has little to do. GTA4 has several large textures that when uncompressed at the higher resolutions/settings, may need >1 GB of video memory.

EVGA has this listed, but has yet to offer it for sale.

Seriously people the larger the memory does not always mean you'll get better performance. Your most limited by the bandwidth and the gpu not the amount of memory.

You mean when it comes to memory its not the length but the girth?

Now all we need is a GTX 295 with 3584MB of vRAM.

But we all know that will never happen..
