One thing I've noticed is if you don't have at least 128mb on yur video card yull be lucky to get over a 500 score, that's where those of us who paid extra for the 128mb version of our video cards pays off (sorta 1000 is better than 500 score ) |

Yeah but if you got alot of FAST RAM you really dont have to worry about it i jus see no reason to buy a 256mb card when a few months ago 9 to be exact i went from 64mb 7500 to a 128mb 9000pro and four months ago from a 9000 to a 9500+ so i've been around
