Recently my computer broke, and I'm getting a new one. It's just a normal computer, but with better specs than my old one. Since the new one has a 300W power supply, I decided I'd go for a GT 240 rather than upgrade the power supply and get a more expensive card (I'm sort of on a low budget). I have a few questions:
How much of a difference on performance does the video ram type have? (DDR3/GDDR5)
If the highest resolution I'll be playing at is 1280x1024, would 512MB of video ram be enough?
I'm trying to choose between the Palit 512MB GDDR5 GT 240, the Sparkle 512MB GDDR5 GT 240, and the Sparkle 1GB DDR3 GT 240.
