No way a card with the same architecture yet less powerful will do better on anything...I find that hard to believe. The 8600GT/GTS will handle photoshop enough but the 8800GTS is very powerful so I would just get one.
Ah, wlel ok. That's just what I had heard, so I wasn't sure xD.
Hmm...well I may just wait on that then, and just use a 32-bit version of XP. I have XP home on this machine right now (but it's OEM, so I'd have to call MS if I wanted it to get activated on my new mobo, correct?). I'll probly just get XP Pro for my new comp tho, and keep the XP Home on this comp, just in case I ever have to use this one again xD.64bit XP is kind of a hassle with all the drivers and stuff.
Thanks a lot for the help guys, I really appreciate it ^_^. I'm looking at different cases now...dunno if I wanna go with that Coolermaster one I picked out earlier...or go with a different one (maybe one with a clear side panel).
