I am thinking of getting a new video card at Sybercom (found on pricewatch) but trying to keep price under $50. Which card is better?
1.) Visiontek Xtasy 5632 Geforce2 GTS 64MB DDR AGP with TV-out, OEM Compaq P/N 200575-002 at $49 or
2.) Visiontek Xtasy 5632 Geforce2 GTS-V 32MB DDR AGP, OEM
I am not sure if it is better to go with better GPU or more memory?

The 5632 should use the same GPU no matter what memory config (GTS-V). I've never heard of a 64mb version. It is it available on Compaq's site to look at?

Ah, OK. They've got it named incorrectly at the site. It should be the model 5664, not 5632. This should be an excellent card. The 5632's (got two) are extremely good overclockers and offers a lot bang for the buck. The 5664's are essentially the same card, but with more memory and other features. Great deal.

If you can go over by a few bucks, newegg has a refurbished Gainward Geforce Pro 450 for $63 shipped. I have one running 240/470, quite a boost over an overclocked GTS-V. Also you can get a Geforce2 Ti 64MB for $62 shipped on pricewatch, again you should be able to get 275/450 with most of them. Seems like the GTS-V's are reaching 200/350 or so.

Thanks, For recommendations. Will check into Geforce2 Ti 64MB also. It looks like the Visiontek Xtasy 5632 Geforce2 GTS 64MB DDR AGP with TV-out, OEM Compaq P/N 200575-002 is not in-stock.
