hey everyone, im building a new computer, and im stuck on what gpu to buy, right now im looking at a GIGABYTE GV-N98TOC-1GH GeForce 9800 GT 1GB 256-bit with gddr3, but theres this new Radeon HD 4870 512MB 256-bit with gddr5 that is about $40 more...is gddr5 alot better than gddr3? im confused about that, ive heard its not much better... i plan on playing games like crysis, fallout 3, ect. so if anyone has any advice for me on what gpu to get i would be very thankful ... it just needs to be $200 or less... lol
