Here is a GREAT question - does your computer's ram have anything to do with how your video card runs?

If its a shared card yes. Or one of the cheap low end cards that use some of its on memory, and some of the systems ram.

The more ram you have will always make a big difference. But 512MB is the base to be able to use any card to its fullest.

I read reviews and stuff at this site:
http://www.guru3d.com/article/Videocards/134/4/

It's really good because they go in-depth on almost everything.

I read this part on it: "If you get an x800 with reference cooling then you better be sure that your PC is cooled sufficiently as all that heat will warm up the ambient temperature of your PC's inside and cascade the effect by warming up other components."

There a lot of really cool and new games that are coming out and I don't know if that card will be good enough for those.  How much money are you willing to spend on a card? And what types of games are you going to play???
