512mb or 256mb?
Am I going to see better performance with 512mbs or will I see equal with the 256mb...? The 256mb is USD$175w/shipping and handling.
The 512mb is $200 free shipping. All just in my price range. 8-)
I mostly run FS9, FSX RCT3 and more in the near future...

Edit: The 256mb seems to be out of stock currently but the VisionTek HD3850 256mb is also an option.

Its all down to the resolution.

What resolution do you plan to play at?

(to your sig... thats one of my favorite ones in the book.... or when he is sat between the electromagnet and knife shop- an idea I thought of before even knowing of the book)

Yes, very funny book.
I want to run my resolution at 1680x1050x32 (24" monitor)
Happy 1200th day of being here at SimV btw

oh wow.... thanks  ;D
happy 201st day...  ;)


For that resolution 512mb and above would be good... the memory factor is so that is has a larger space to store the image... lower memory means it will take longer to get the image stored and put on the screen.

Bigger is better  ;D
Alrighty thanks!
