And I don't think the price difference now on the older 970 4gb cards (which are still just as great) shouldn't be that much more than the newer 4gb version of the 960.
I have the 2gb 960 and runs ed and most other games quite well not totally maxed out but very close to it in most games.
But its really meant to be a card for 1080p@60hz going beyond that in either resolution or frequency its going to fall behind it does surprisingly well in ED for me and I can double my res using the upscaler fine (just need to lower a few settings nothing major) and still get 45fps in stations., the rest even belts 60fps np.
Extra ram would help but just throwing ram at a card that's not really built for the task isn't going to magically solve the problem so I believe the 960 4gb while a bit better than the 2gb its more marketing than actual value.
That said I'm just now waiting for a new 3440x1440 screen, think I'm going to be OK with the 960 but I quite possible will be looking at upgrading again when next generation hit.
