After searching long and hard I am about an hour from buying one of two cards:
eVGA GeForce 6800 256Mb PCI-e
or
eVGA GeForce 6800 128Mb AGP
1) Will I notice a huge difference between 128Mb and 256Mb?
2) Will I notice a huge difference between PCI-e and AGP?
3) Will both be able to be overclocked the same amount?
The 256Mb is $65 more, not to mention I would need to buy a new motherboard, so figure it is $165 more. Is the difference between the two worth $165?
I noticed on eVGA's website that the 128Mb has more memory bandwith than the 256Mb (19.2 Gb/second vs. 22.4 Gb/second)
