Choosing a new video card! Advice needed!! | Forums

[Rathitz]

Hey. I'm looking for a new video card and I'm looking at these two specifically:

Leadtek WinFast FX5700 128MB A360TD AGP8X - $152.00

Gainward FX5600XT 256MB AGP8X 780 TV-Out DVI - $129.00

So basically, is the 5700 a lot better than the 5600 even though the 5600 has 256 mb?

If I had to chose from your list.... Leadtek.
But I would choose Sapphire 9600xt.

So the 256 mb isn't worth it even though it's less?
