-in bf3 @ 2560x1440 gtx580sli [1.5] I left all setting at max. by mistake , 30 minutes into the game it started to jerk around ,fps had dropped to 20 . vram was at 1538 , went to settings turned off msaa ,restarted the game [same server] vram was now below 1500mb and played the game for hours after that.
-not a big deal on one year old cards ,but to buy cards with 1.5gb of vram today ,no way , to buy 2 x high end 2gb cards to keep for 2 years not likely either.
