Hey everyone,
I am relatively new to these forums, only made a couple posts, and I have been looking into getting a Macbook Pro for some time. I have always used PC's throughout my life and always wanted a Mac, and really liked the innovative software that they have. The main reason I never bought one was b/c I played a lot of games and had lots of of important software that could only run on windows.
Anyways I am wondering two things about the Macbook Pro. I am looking at getting the 2.0 GHZ with the 128mb X1600pro and I was also looking into the 2.16 GHZ with the 256 mb X1600pro.
What I am wondering is if there would be much of a performance difference with the extra 128 mb of ram on the video card in terms of graphics and gaming in windows(Boot camp of course) and if it is worth the $600 price difference. I know the faster processor would make a difference as well but I am more concerned about the memory on the video card
Thanks!
