WD Raptor 10,000RPM is the best for gaming. Be sure to get the 150GB though!

I believe the 10,000RPM is better. The rotation speed matters more than the cache in certain cases. And for gaming, you want a faster hard drive which would be the 10,000RPM one.

The 10'000rpm Raptor drives will be faster, but you dont get much storage for the money, unless you have a deep pocket or really serious on games, go for the 7'200rpm for more storage MB/buck, and use the money saved for more memory.
