512mb would be pretty inssane...and rather pointless really....

You know how Quake looks shitty, but when it came out we were amazed with it?

I wonder how long it'll take for DOOM 3 to look bad.

Great game overall. Just didn't know if I was fond or not of the way everything looked like an action figure halfway through an intensive microwave session, personally. I was honestly plenty impressed, oh please believe. The theme plot and atmosphere were fair to middlin', as well. I guess I had a rough time with that waxy shine cast across everything after a couple of hours.

Not the newest but I've been hearing good things about the 915 chipset.
