I am very curious why the memory space has been included into the graphic card. Why do we have 512MB and 128MB. And what is DDR1, DDR2 and DDR3?? This questions are keep puzzling in my mind for many years and never get a clear answer doh.gif . Many of my peers told me that the most expensive one is the best shakehead.gif . I find this answer a bit lame. So can anyone tell me how to choose a good graphic card?

the most expensive is the best performing, there's no doubt about that.

just that it's certainly

1. not necessarily the best for you.
2. definitely not the one with best price:performance ratio.

first u need to know wat u want first and u want it for wat.

the DDR1 ,2 ,3,4 is the same as the system RAM, but the graphic card is running on it's own RAM aka graphic memory, thus it share less system RAM.

it's a fact that the more expensive the better, but sometimes the case r just different like the 8800GT which r cheap and perform able to par with high-end card nod.gif

when choosing a graphic card, u hv to know ur budget first, so u can choose the one that most suit u within ur budget range smile.gif
