I am thinking of getting nvidia GT 240 GDDR5 based video card for mythtv 
(mythbuntu 9.10)
I can either get it with 512M or 1G. I am wondering if 512M is enough 
for forseeable future or is it better to go for 1GB? BTW, what does the 
extra memory in the video card buy us in terms of performance or 
capacity to play tough HD passages?

FYI, I see roughly $30 price difference between 512M vs 1G ($69 vs $99)
