I was looking at the Specials at Fry's Electronics and saw that they had a Video Card for $29.99 (After the Rebate) It's a XFX 8600GS.
I then happen to go to the Newegg site and noticed two different XFX 8600GS' Video Cards. While I can *read* the differences at the link below, I'm Not sure what those differences mean!
IF anyone has the time, could you look at the link below and share your thoughts on the 2 Video Cards in the 'comparison'.
Thanks for the time.

Hey Scott,
I don't know alot about video cards but by reading the comparison, looks like you get a fan, and a little better max resolution.
If you will notice a difference depends on what your main purpose for the card is.

Thanks Jim,
I noticed those 2 facts as well.
The main difference is that the more expensive card has 512 MB of RAM on the card, while the less expensive card has 256 MB on the card, and will use another 256 MB of your system RAM to reach 512 MB.
Do you use your computer for gaming?
No I don't use my computer for Gaming.
But I figured the more RAM the card brought to the mix, the better off it would perform.
One of the other things I noticed - something else that I NEED, is that the more expensive Card also has the S-Video line Out.
