Hi,
I've got a second PC that I use when mates come around so we can play LAN games. The current card is a 7300GT 256MB, which has become vastly outgunned and needs to be put out of it's misery.
Since it's not used all the time I didn't want to spend megabucks on a new card, and have settled on the 3650 as being the price/performance level I'd like to stick to.
My question is this - should I take the 256MB DDR3 version or the 512MB DDR2?
Logic dictates that the 256MB DDR3 should be my choice, but I'm a little unsure because I'm running this card with a 22" screen (1680x1050).
Does the resolution I'm running at mean that I should perhaps opt for the 512MB DDR2? Any advice would be appreciated!
