What Graphics Card To Choose

i have been stuck on choosing two graphics the Nvidia 8600GTS 256mb and the Nvidia 8800GTS 320mb. I am not sure if the Nvidia 8600GTS would be able to handle resolutions of 1680 x 1050 for moderate gaming on vista? also thats why i am leaning towards the 8800GTS because it easily supports games at that resolution. but the 8800GTS also streches my budget by quite a bit and the 8600GTS fits in perfectly.

So can you please tell me if the 8600GTS would be perform good at the resolution of 1680 x 1050 with gaming and vista or do i need to get 8800GTS to enjoy a moderate gaming and vista on the widescreen??

I would choose the 8600GTS and upgrade to the 9600GTS (or what they'll call it) next year if you don't want to really spend for the 8800GTS right now.

I'd get the 8800GTS if you got the money , or maybe OC the Censored the Censored out of the lower version

Definately go 8800GTS. It is so much quicker and it will help @ 1680 x 1050, compared to the 8600.
