Hi I am currently running a oem creative GTS2 64meg and want to replace it with a Radeon. I ordered a Radeon 64 but was sent a Radeon 32 DDR. Should I keep the Radeon 32 DDR or wait for the Radeon 64 DDR.

Thanks
Charles

32mb would be fine, not quite the longevity of a 64m tho. did you pay for a 64mb card?

Yes I paid for a 64 but would get the diff back if I keep the 32. Just don't know if it is worth the wait for the 64 and the trouble of having to ship the 32 back?

Did you order retail or oem? Besides the extra 32meg, a RETAIL 64 is clocked at 183. All others are clocked at 166.

I paid for a retail 64meg. Got a Retail 32meg DDR.

I am probably going to sale the OEM 64meg GTS2 when I get the Radeon situation taken care of.

Thanks

32MB should suffice quiet well, but if it isn't a problem to snag the 64MB card, you'll give yourself a pat on the back later. :)

Since you wanted the 64 in the first place, get it. Remember, "what is overkill today will be necessary tomorrow" (I just made that up!). I have the 64 retail and have no regrets at all getting it.

Sorry, the guy shipped out the wrong one, the right one goes out tomorrow, and I'll paypal you the shipping cost (USPS Priority please) to ship the 32 MB back.
