ASUS 128mb 6800GT?

So yeah, for $329 I can buy this: http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/...jsp?ProductCode=324522

I'm curious as to whether or not it'd be worth it to spend some $100 more for 256mb ram. Especially concerning the difference between a 128mb and 256mb Video card in one or two years or so. My question would be whether or not memory will be more of a bottleneck than it is today?

That card can actually benefit from additional RAM since it is powerful enough to use AA and AF with pretty much every current game. If you don't plan to play at high details and high resolutions, you don't need the additional RAM.

IIRC, that's the gimped "GT" that's actually a vanilla 6800.

yup what MDE said.

Actually, Asus does have a 6800gt (16pipe core) paired with 128 megs of RAM
The card you 2 are talking about is a 6800 (12pipe core) paired with 256 megs of RAM

Asus likes to play games with their cards and mislead consumers
