required vram will be linked to things like resolution etc, we don't know what resolution it recommends to have 3GB of vram.
It also might only be labeled as 3gb in order to be more friendly with amd. Given how they currently have cheaper 3gb gpus
we will only know how much is required when the game is released.

Well, I have a 6870 (1 GB) and I've never, as far as I know, ran into VRAM Issues at 1080p even when using MSAA and the such. When playing on Ultra the framerates in BF3 are, obviously, way too low, but it its a consistent frame rate and doesnt seem to stutter or grind to a halt in the way at least I would expect it would if you're running out of VRAM. So, what i gather, and I may be wrong know, and correct me if I am, but it seems like the GPU can flush out resources its not using, at least to some extent, to keep the VRAM buffer in check.
However, if you REALLY do need 3GB of buffer than jeez... but pushing boundaries will move tech forward.

Should not be a problem really. As JamesRiley has stated in a previous post this might just be cause all higher-end AMD cards come with 3GB while most Nvidia cards only have 2.
Must not forget that the BF4 demo was played on an AMD card (as advertised) and that it's probably going to be a Never Settle title as well.
2GB Should be enough at 1080p and it's not going to affect your FPS by much, if at all.
