Geforce 256 vs. Geforce 2 MX

I have a question on which video card I should use. Currently I use a Geforce 256 video card with 32MB DDR Ram, but I also have a Geforce 2 MX with 64 MB of SDRAM. A friend once told me it was actually more important how fast the RAM was more so than how much RAM the video card has. But games don't specify DDR vs. SDR in their minimum requirements. So I'm wondering, should I use the Geforce 256 or the Geforce 2 MX?

lol neither are good but use the 64mb card any day. what your friend was talking about was the mhz speeds on your core/memory. while this is important u will get quite a big boost out of a 64mb card compared to that 32mb 256.
