Does anyone have any idea which card would be better for gaming??? I am either going with the Radeon 9600XT w/ 256mb Ram or the Radeon X600 XT w/ 128mb Ram. I would really like to go with the X600 XT with 256mb Ram but I can't seem to find one anywhere. So I guess those are my options. Does anyone know which is faster? I have heard that the X600 is the same card as the 9600 but with the PCIE interface. Does the faster interface make up for the lack of ram? Any input would be helpfull. I need it to run Doom 3 without freaking out when there are more than 3 people on the screen. Right now I have the min. req. for Doom 3 except I have a 128mb video card (9200) and it crashes every 5 minutes. Now I have to spend another $1000 to play my $50 game.

I know this is probably in the wrong forum but does anyone really read the others?
