i was thinking bout buying a msi gefore 2 pro 64mb. The reason i am buying this card is because i want to run counter strike at optimal settings. Do i really need the 64mb card or can i have the same fps with the 32mb card?

You can have very near the same FPS with the 32MB card. I think the extra memory is worth about 10%-15% at higher resolutions, but the 32MB version should still offer higher frame rates than would normally be required for smooth game play.

Counterstrike? Heh... even at high resolutions and optimal settings, I don't think you'd be maxing out the 32mb of memory on the card for texturing. Get the 32MB version and save yourself a few dollars. The 64MB card would be good if you plan to be playing a lot of new games within the next year, but you'll probably be upgrading in a year anyway.
