That doesn't make sense. The 75x family (maxwell) is newer than the 76x family (kepler).

High memory bandwidth = wide memory bus = big memory circuits = big circuit board = big card

There is no way around it.

The real questions you should be asking yourself are:
"What am I willing to spend?"
and
"what do I want to get out of this?"

A 750 or 750 TI will probably handle 4x IR just fine. But do you want to use any AA? Do you do any PC gaming?

It didn't make sense to me either, but I have no idea what the devs have planned.

I went with the 750 Ti SC. Just installed it about 20 minutes ago.

I used 4xSSAA at 3xIR in most of my games and saw no framerate dips, so I think it performs pretty well. I do a little PC gaming, but not in any ultra-modern titles.

I'll post some screens later showing GPU load under Dolphin stress, etc.
