You cannot compare MSI to BFG, regardless of the $40 (after rebates) difference.
I would say the difference in RAM matters, but with today's games (with the exception
of 1 or 2) you barely use the RAM provided by circa 2000 video cards. Hell, I went
from a 64mb DDR Radeon to a 16mb TNT2 Vanta, but I'm wierd.
