x700 pro 128 or 256?

[farmerandtheDell]

debating whether to get an x700pro 128mb for $125, or is it going to suck and I'll always wish I spent the extra $20 to get the 256mb version? perhaps it doesn't matter on this level of card?

OR do I spend the extra $40 and get a 6600gt 128mb?

6600GT>X700Pro

256MB X700Pro>128MB X700Pro; but only in games that use it. You won't notice a difference in performance most of the time, but for $20 why not. Regardless, $40 more for 6600GT == worth it

get the 6600GT dude...it beats the X700Pro in all benchmarks except a few here and there! u can even find one close to $150 now.

It's not worth the money. The X700pro isn't capable of taking advantage of the extra memory.
