Article:

The GTX 960 2GB and 4GB cards were available with the same GPU, but different memory, making them better to directly compare than the modern 1060 6GB vs. 3GB cards. The GTX 960 comparison was an important one for people trying to save money back in 2015, as the 2GB model ran slightly cheaper than the 4GB model. Today, we're looking at how the two cards have aged in memory-strained scenarios, but also discussing the usefulness of an "academic exercise" versus the practicality of a real-world test.
