New card
Can anyone recommend a decent card (PCI-express) for under $100? I game
every now and then but not too much. Thanks so much, Keith T.

Thanks, I don't mind spending a little bit more if I gain performance.

Looks like they (Gigabyte) offers this same card in a 256 mem version. Would
the 256 version be that much better? "Rene" wrote in message ... "Cuzman" schreef in bericht ... Keith wrote: " Can anyone recommend a decent card (PCI-express) for under $100?

" With identical GPUs, manufacturers tend to use faster chips on the cards with less RAM. Most games won't find the need to utilise 256MB, so, with 95% of games today, you'd get fractionally lower benchmarks with the 256MB version. However, given that it's only $12 extra at Newegg for the 256MB version, it might well be a good investment. The 256MB version will be worth twice as much as the 128MB one in a couple of years time.
