    This is not a new review,but I only just noticed it:

    Even with sub £100 GPUs,DDR3 reduces performance quite a bit when compared to GDDR5.

    I'm impressed with the difference on the gt630 (lowest there) the 7750 is a bottom mid range card so it does have a bit of grunt behind it and I'm not that surprised it makes a difference, but for it to make the difference on something as weak as the gt630 is interesting.
