I'm about to buy a new iMac and to stay within my budget I can choose one of three options:
- Upgrade from an ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO w/256MB GDDR3 to a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS w/512MB GDDR3
- Upgrade from a 2.8 core 2 duo to a 3.06 core 2 duo
- upgrade from 2gb ram to 4gb
Is 256mb of graphics memory pretty good? Will I notice a huge difference between 256 and 512? I don't do much 3d stuff, and basically I just want everything like time machine, spaces, etc to display really smoothly. So of those 3 options, what do you think my best value would be?
Thanks!
