some info there on the specs, i dont think there is a major noticeable difference gameplay wise, maybe an extra 2-3 maybe upto 5 fps but would it be worth the extra cost i doubt it

Yeah, I dont usually feel the need to run games at the highest settings anyway, often on lesser settings you get an advantage =] lol

I'll go with bang for buck on this one... 2gb ddr3 of graphics power is pretty damn good.
