The amount of money i could save by choosing a 256MB 8800Gt over a 512MB and by choosing 667Mhz over 800Mhz RAM is really appealing.
But will performance loss not be worth it?
I have a 1280x1024 17" monitor. Is 256mb enough for this (mind that I want to play Crysis on the highest possible settings)? Or is 512mb starting to become a necessity?
Also is it really worth buying 800Mhz RAM over 667Mhz? I could save £20 by doing that.
How does the Mhz of RAM come into play? I heard it links in with your CPUs FSb (E6550 2.33Ghz, FSB1333Mhz)
Cheers.
