Im about to buy one of these cards but Im undecided. They are both from Asus and if the 9550 overclocks well then I want it. And should I buy the 128Mb or the 256Mb version? I read somewere that 256Mb only interests for high resolutions. Since Im going to play in 1024x760 mode, I guess I can save a few € getting the 128Mb version.
Some of you are wondering why I going to buy an old card. Well, the video cards here in portugal are very expensive. To give an idea an AGP 6600GT here costs more than 200€ (~200 $US) but in the USA you can get one for about 130 $US.
The other side is that we are a poor country, so we dont have too much money to spend in computer parts (see my sig.). To some of you have an idea, the month income of my family is about 2000€ (~2000 $US) or less.
So dont say to me that I should buy a 6600GT or 6800GT because its impossible. I only have 80€ to spend in the new video card and I want to do the best use of my money.
