Tom’s Hardware is a good website. I often do consulting with people with a lot of things concerning electronics and home theater systems, video cards, ram, and cell phones are what i get the most questions about. and on video cards, i get the same questions you posted, gmt, and i always try to do them right.

when i was working at an electronics store (Fry’s), everyone in the computer area was BSing a crapload about video cards, i just wanted to slap them.

You also have to consider the brand. If your going for a high end card, do not go for INNO3d or PALIT

XFX, ASUS, LEADTEK and MSI are the better ones but you have to shell out more

64MB Video cards are passey. If you are into gaming choose higher video card. if you are just after word processing you dont need high specs video card.

@justine
Before, I have to replace the FAN of my inno3d GF4 Ti4200 because of overheating issues. Then I read different forums and was surprise to hear that others also complained about inno3d cards.

If your going to invest in the high end cards, go for the better ones. Don’t be afraid to shell out more, you won’t regret it

I’d go for iChill personally and yeah, investing on your gfx card is much better than your processor, unless you’re only into sid meier games.
