RADEON 9600 Pro 128MB vs 256MB??
I was looking for which video card to buy on newegg.com and I stumbled apon something. The ATI RADEON 9600 Pro w/ 128MB (ATI) is just $6 less then the ATI RADEON 9600 Pro w/ 256MB (POWERCOLOR). Now is it really a better deal to go with the POWERCOLOR Radeon w/ 256MB or will I expect it not to be as good because its not made directly from ATI?

I've used PowerColor ATI-based cards before with no problems, so I would recommend them, especially since you're getting twice the memory for only a few more dollars.

Sure a big difference in the amount of memory but not really a difference when it comes down to performance.

The ram is slower on the 256 than on the 128, so it's a tradeoff.
