Well, some clock speeds are higher on one, different ones on the other. Not sure about the specifics about what each one will matter more.

Wrong section :/
Just make sure you take into account Tigerdirect's massive weight on shipping and tax(if you have any)

just get this from MSI

I have MSI twinfrozr GTX260 and it doesn't have problem ^^, however MSI twinfrozr GTX275 worth more than GTX260. Depend what you want. GTX275 have 10%~20% performance over GTX260. And after compared both of the cards you mentioned, the cheaper one from Tigerdirect worth more.

Get this one, I personally have it,
and my friend has the xfx 260, and mine one is way better.

check internet FPS tests between the 260 and 275
275 is only like 40 dollars more, but way better.
