Default What 7300GT is better?

What one of these is better? The Leadtek has faster clock speeds, but the Gigabyte has more memory? I'm guessing that the Leadtek is better for gaming, but just wanna make sure i'm right.

Leadtek WinFast PX7300GT TDH 128MB DDR3 Extreme Geforce 7300GT 128MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card

GIGABYTE GV-NX73T256P-RH GeForce 7300GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Video Card

Ok, Well even though people told me that the 7300gt isnt that good for gaming it should be pretty good if it will be about twice as good as a 5900 because i could play Far Cry with almost everything on as high as it could go and it worked just fine with my 5900.

GIGABYTE 7300GT is not twice as good, it is just a little better

The Leadtek 7300GT uses a DDR3 memory, and as I know the DDR3 version of 7300GT performs as good as 7600GS

However you can get 7600GT for $78.99 after rebate

The 7300GT will perform better, but for the same price you can buy an x800/x850 series video card that will be A LOT better in games.
