Solve : Vidoe card RAM?

1.	Solve : Vidoe card RAM?
Answer» OK i'm looking at getting a next gen. vid card(x800,6800)and i know what RAM is but how much of a difference does a 128MB card from a 256 MB card? in terms of gaming(far cry, Halo, HL 2) will performance really suffer with a 128? Also do all 6800 cards require a PSU of 480? I have a atx450 now and would hate to spend ANOTHER 50+ dollars on a new PSU. Any help is greatly welcomed.Performance will not suffer with a 128MB card. You should LOOK at the amount of Pipelines and Clock/RAM speeds rather than amount of MB the card has. I believe that most 256MB cards (TRY to) make up with MB for that they lack in other areas. You may require a more powerful PSU. I myself RECENTLY installed an 9800Pro on a 400Watt power supply.. See the Cmos Error Checksum thread for more details.
