128MB Vs 256MB 6600GT AGP Card?

[PleasurePaulie64]

Is it worth the extra $50 bucks or so for a 256MB 6600GT compared with a 128MB 6600GT? Will 128MB generally play most new games better, or is the 256MB a better long term option?


Thanks!

i'd say hell no, without seeing a benchmark i predict it will be like the 128vs256mb 9800 pro argument, you'll only see any noticeable advanatge at res/aa levels that are unplayable anyway...

of course i could be totally wrong, but i doubt it

I have the 128MB one, and it works for every game in 1024* on high settings, and 1280* on medium/high. The 256, IMO, is just gimmicky.

With a 128-bit bus, the 256MB does nothing for you.
