Don't go vista.


Seriously.


Nice build, would have gone a different route on the ram but that's ok.

Vistas a uses alot of power to run its 3d desktop and visuals, your computer can no doubt handle it but wont do quite as good with games, and i heard vista doesnt work with a few virtual drives like alchol 120

You'll need Vista for DX10 games but for current DX9 games, there is a slight performance hit. With an 8800GTX though it won't make much of a difference.

how much its good for and how long u have to use it ect.
