What are the real-world differences between video cards available from Apple for BTO 24" iMacs? What's the best choice if I want to play 3D PC games with BootCamp?

    The GeForce 7600 GT hands down. You can check for yourself here. In the comparisons the GeForce 7300 GT is used in a Mac Pro.

    I concur, the 7600GT give you 2.5 times the performance. The only downside is that it requires a $500 upgrade to the 24" display to actually get it.

    But only $125 if you have already decided to go 24".
