Current video card memory

I wonder if we also need a thread/poll about the GPU (as in, ATI 5870 or NVidia GTX280, but more general, of course) just so we have both halves of the equation accounted for. Although a lot of these cards listed are great in ram and GPU, in the past (as a marketing gimmick) I have seen many cards paired with 512MB or more of slow ram with a poor GPU, which would not do well in SH5. While it may tell the same story in the end, it could be intriguing none the less.
