    Curious as to how these GPUs compare to each other, and if the difference is only marginal.

    Yeah...there's probably 15 threads on this, probably 10 of which I've answered personally. Use search next time please :(

    edit: either way, both the DDR2 and GDDR3 models are reasonably similar.
