I think it will improve a lot
But my gpu is correct?
Are you sure, that ethereum will not switch to pos till 2019?

The reason its using only 2 GB is because thats all it needs to mine ethereum
It comes down to DAG file.
please look it up to understand DAG file size.
Come 2018-early 2019 4GB gpu card won't work because DAG file will be larger.

No Ethereum may switch to POS from POW before that the DAG file size increases over years thats what requires you to go from 2gb card to 4gb and so on.

there was time when i mined ethereum on 1gb card and than 1.5gb and 2.0gb right now 4 gb cards are sufficient but by late 2018 to 2019 it will move past 3.3gb-3.5gb size when 4gb gpu cards won't be able to mine ethereum.

they increase by 0.73x per year in file size to keep up with moores law other wise if the DAG files are same and costs of RAM goes down sufficient enough we can have ASICS for Ethereum.
However POS is expected to happen way before 2018 but again anything could happen.
Your card using 2.2gb is okay and the hashing speed your are getting is very normal, so you are okay.
