    Hi I am looking at these two models on newegg.com.

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220286

    and

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220296

    I will be doing mosty gaming, I was wondering if anyone knew how much better the 256mb GDDR3 hd2600 is than the regular 512mb GRR2 hd2600? And just out of curiousity how does the 256mb GDDR3 compare to a 512mb 8600gt? This the gpu is a big factor for me and I want to get a good upper middle class one. Also if you want give your opinion on the 2 cpus, I have never used AMD, other than the 1.9 speed against the 2.2 intel how will the AMD stand up to the duo core? Thanks.
