Check the specs
It has way more computational power (more shader and texture units) than the 550 ti, but similar memory bandwidth.
This is overkill for physx. I think toms hardware did a...

You would have been fine with the 430w, but there's nothing wrong with getting a little extra oomph for possible future upgrades :)

Actually, he is right. According to 3 benchmark sites, this is just 5% faster than a 550ti. And with the smaller memory bandwidth, the CPU will struggle to process the data fast enough to keep from...

The GT 240s are not SLI capable. Though for the $45 I paid for it, it's a power house little card. I have a AMD 970 mobo which supports crossfire but not SLI.

Your laptop is much worse. 336 shader cores vs 192. I don't think the extra memory is going to make a big difference.

blahblahblah -- quit dodging. Are you saying that the reason these cards perform the same despite the smaller memory bus is because the GPU is faster? That's sure what it looked like to me.

as others have mentioned bus width is not the sole criteria to go by - the GTX 260 had DDR3 memory IIRC.

The only time a card with 1GB+ of VRAM runs into "memory" bottle necks, is at resolutions over 1080p.

You wouldn't be able to SLI the 192-bit with 256-bit. So I think it would be better to keep your card and wait for a deal on another 256-bit GTX 460.
