Im planning out what i want to upgrade on my computer this year. One of the first things i wanna do, is to get vista. Now i know people are gonna warn me about waiting for service packs ect. but i have a few reasons. One, i need media center, so that i can send video to my 360. 2, halo2 vista, which I haven't been lokking forward to tremendously, but im a halo nut. Also, ill be able to us DX10, which is just a small bonus in the short run. My second upgrade, and the one that im definately doing, is to buy a new graphics card. The question is, do i go with better performance, or do i go with direct x10? Im looking into the 8600gts and the 7950gt as my options right now. What would you guys recomend? Go with whats more future proof, or go with the better performance? Im also looking into late in the year upgrading to maybe one of those 45nm intel processors, but idk yet, since ill have to buy a motherboard with new chipsets. So, any suggestions? im gonna spend between 200-250 on a new graphics card. I may shoot for the cheapest 8800gts, but im not sure yet, that would take me about a month to save for, plus im buying vista.
