Default Gpu and vista

Well Ill be buying probably an 8800 not sure which exact one yet.
Then running vista home premium on one harddrive. And MCE on another...

Will I notice any lag or anything when on vista? Since drivers for the 8800 dont work well.


Cause I plan on playing Halo 2 vista with the 8800.


Ill have 2gb ram to...

By the time Halo 2 and other games are out there should be better drivers available.

And are you getting a GTS or GTX? Because the GTX doesnt work in alot of cases since it's so long.

Yeah 28cm for the GTX that is crazy. But the performance is crazy as well, so it kinda redeems itself from that.
