COOOOLLL!!! But will 128mb of ddr memory make much of a difference?

[mellondust]

I just saw the Gainward/Cardexpet GeForce 3 Ti200 128MB (NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 200 GPU), Power Pack Golden Sample, 4ns 128MB DDR.Retail Box on newegg's web site for $196. What, if any, advantages will having 128 mb of ddr ram give me? It seems awfully temping!

oh yeah, I might add is the $40 difference worth the money? Thats about 25% more expensive than the 64 mb version. What percentage of an increase could a person expect to see?

probably not. Now that compression is becoming standard...

It would be a great budget graphic workstation card. The extra memory would help with texturing or manipulating large models for instance. Not much benefit for gaming however.

128 MB will help immensely in games like RTCW and in all future games. You'll have much less texture swaps which will lead to much smoother gameplay. Get the 128 MB version if you can.
