my question is how important is the memory interface?
I ask because i have the EVGA 8800gts w/ 640mb and it has a 320bit interface, i think i want to buy the HIS 4870 w/ 1gb gddr5 but it only as a 256bit memory interface. (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161265)
The 4870 has 800 stream processors compared to the 96 on my 8800gts and the 4870 crushes it in all other categories but i dont know how important the memory interface is. Can someone please help me?
