If ya check out benchmark tests, they show that the 256 MB versions of the FX 5900 Ultra and Radeon 9800 Pro aren't much more powerful than the 128 MB versions, if at all. The only way they pull ahead significantly is if you have anti-aliasing turned up to 8x with resolutions at 1600*whatever. Didn't keep me from ordering my 5900 Ultra yesterday though; I just want a card that is powerful enough to last a year or two.
