on my new pc i have ATI X1300 512mb and on my old pc Geforce fx 5200 128 MB. However i m one of those who prefer ATI

I'm getting it just for gaming and i'm a nvidia fan, and a msi freek
and now i'm stuck between these 3:
NX8800GTS-T2D320E-HD
NX8800GTS-T2D320E-HD-OC
NX8600GTS-T2D256EZ-HD
I'm thinking of getting the 8600GTS but the only problem is that it has low memory (not that the others have high memory )

what do you think?

brother, you get what you paid for.
there is a 120+$ difference between the 8600gts and the 8800gts.
my opinion is the following, if you are going to change this vga in less than 2 years, dont think of the 8800, just get a nice 8600gts, which is known to be good

check the link above

and you will notice that the 8800gts is powerfull, but u dont need more than 30 frames per second to play a game.
