8800gts 320 oc vs 640
I am getting a large monitor and was wondering if a 320 could keep up, and with the games coming out later this quarter, it seems a legit concern.
Monitor I want: SAMSUNG 226BW Black 22" 2 ms (GTG) DVI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 700:1(DC 3000:1) - Retail http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16824001096 in the 320 range, it seems this one is the best bet (most overclocked): XFX PVT80GGHD4 GeForce 8800GTS 320MB 320-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Video Card - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150173 in the 640 range, this one is cheapest and is evga, I'm not sure about the others but they are overclocked and still inexpensive...(I am not counting on the foxconn rebate, it is almost impossible to get and you have to give your info to third party people...) EVGA 640-P2-N821-AR GeForce 8800GTS 640MB 320-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Video Card - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130071 Foxconn FV-N88SMBD2-ONOC GeForce 8800GTS 640MB 320-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Video Card - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814186016 MSI NX8800GTS-T2D640E-HD OC GeForce 8800GTS 640MB 320-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Video Card - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814127280 |

More memory's never a bad thing. Memory on a video card is mostly used for 3D shapes and such. So if you're playing some games with a lot going on or a lot of movement, the 640MB version will definitely come in handy.
But if you're playing slow, boring games, the 320 will do. lol They're both good cards, though. And definitely overclockable. http://www23.tomshardware.com/graphi...=707&chart=316 You can play with the benchmarks and see how they compare to each other. That should help you figure out if the $70 difference is worth it to you.
