[QUOTE="Bizquik, post: 261600, member: 21262"] Rip, I recommend you get the upgrade for a couple of reasons: Better video cards equal better overall performance. If you are going to be using programs like Final Cut Pro or Shake 4, You'll find that it plays video much smoother when watching playback. especially if it's very graphic intense. Almost every program put on PC or Mac will recommend 128 meg of video ram as a minimum. In the long run it will pay off to get the upgrade. For PC's now you can even by a Physics card to handle only the physics portion of the graphics card giving the video ram everything it needs to render etc. It will be a noticeable difference and one well worth the 125 bucks to upgrade.
