Default GPU question

Im planning to build a computer soon with Windows Vista 64bit. The GPU that i want is this:
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...922&CatId=1826
It says that for minimum requirements that it needs Windows XP. will it work for Vista? (the only reason ias is because i don't want to spend $250 to find out that it will not work)

P.S. I will be using tigers direct lol

8800GT is a gaming video card. If you are gamer then buy it, if not then buy a cheaper video card like 8500GT or 8400GS. All will work fine with Vista

Then go for the GT. Either that or the GTS G92.
