I'll get straight to the point ... I could buy a gtx465 for 40€ less then a gtx460 1gb. Both from EVGA. With the video card I will get a new PSU, the Silverstone Strider Plus 850W. So my question is: the gtx465(cheaper) or the gtx460 1gb(more expensive) ?

For those prices, I would get the 465 but it will perform slightly less and take more power.

Honestly, I just need an upgrade from my 9500GT :P But theres another issue, a GTX460 768mb version is the same as the GTX465 in cost. I am running a 22" monitor at 1680x1050. In my opinion it would work better for me if I had 1gb of memory, or am I wrong ?

I bought this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130567, from EVGA, with the external exhaust cooler, also because I love EVGA and they give a free Metro 2033 game after registration. Was just my personal choosing.

ah well i was just thinking because the ee is louder and a bit hotter but it does look really sharp i think if they made it more air tight for all types of ee cards they would work flawlessly
