Question : Problem: Graphics Card Memory Comparison

Please give the advantages/disadvantages of a 768MB GDDR2 card vs 384MB GDDR3 card (same manufacturer and GPU)
Thank you

Answer : Problem: Graphics Card Memory Comparison

In general you will not see much more peformance difference because most games do not use that much video memory (crysis may get close though). GDDR3 is a bit faster than GDDR2. This wikipedia article will help explain the differences much better than I can on here:

Manafactures like to put extra memory on their graphics cards because it is cheap (especially GDDR2 over GDDR3) and people will think it is better. If I was choosing between these two cards I would most likely go for the 384MB version.

I hope this information helps. Good luck.
