GWX spec question...

I would make the decision depending on your money situation and if you wanna play SH4. You´ll need a new card to play SH4, yours doesn´t support the minimum required Pixel Shader 2.0. If you get 2GB and you know that after that you won´t be able to afford a new video card for the next 6-12 months you should get 1GB instead and save the $130, so that you can upgrade the card in three or four months.

SHIV is also consideration though I can't see myself buying it till after its been out a while. As for the videocard, I am planning on upgrading at some point in the future, however the only limitation is that my mother board doesn't have an AGP or PCIe slot, so i'm obviously limited to PCI cards.

However I would like to upgrade the ram first. Out of curosity what type of videocard would you recommend? Would the GeForce FX 5200 fit the bill?

thanks
