GTX 260 vs. GTX 280

Ive narrowed it down a little. I know everyone is saying I should go with the HD 4850x2 card, but I love my Nvidia and I can't bring myself to go with ATI.

So I've got it down to two cards.

GTX 260
========
CORE 675MHz
216 processing cores
MEMORY 2304 MHz
MEMORY 896MB

vs

GTX 280
========
CORE 602MHz
240 processing cores
MEMORY 2214MHz
MEMORY 1GB

There is only a $20 difference in price so I don't really care all that much, but I'm just hesitant of going with the 260 because it doesn't have the 240 processing cores.

for the extra 20 dollars you might as well go with the 280. It pays at higher resolutions.

Go with the gtx280 its about 10-15% faster and only 20$ more!
