Okay so I will be buying a new MBP either today or tommorow. What I need to decide is which one to get. I will defiantly be upgrading to 4GB of RAM, but was wondering if i need the extra 256vram on the graphics card. I want to be able to plac COD4,Spore,WoW,and maybe other games like crycis. Any recommendations?:)
 
Have a search on the forum - there has been plenty of discussion around the performance of the extra 256VRAM. Basically games won't see much benefit, but things like CAD programs etc will.

Some threads to get you going. Last one is specific to the real world differences in the VRAM.
