Yeah, I know, Skyrim and Crysis aren't exactly "cutting edge" games, but...
Currently running a 1gb Nvidia GeForce 200 (according to the official driver), and it works decently until I enter combat, then my FPS drops to single-digits... So looking at spending some Xmas cash to upgrade.
This is the main one I was looking at, since 4GB of ram is insane... but at the same time, the fact it's sub-$200 makes me worry the 4GB is purely a marketing gimmick and it will be underwhelming (though reviews seem genrally good)

Was also looking at this due to the low pricetag four double my current VRAM:

However, it seems to have some... issues... especially if you take off the manufacturer and just search for Radeon HD 5450 2GB..
(If any of you cant tell, I'm not extremely well-versed in Graphics-cards and am mainly going by the GB of VRAM, so sorry if these are n00bish questions)
