Hey, my name is Ziryab and i live in Denmark.

I finally got a new computer, but i don't know what version of Windows Vista i want to buy.

Here is all the version, it's possible for me to buy:

Windows Vista Home Basic 32-bit Edition
Windows Vista Home Basic 64-bit Edition
Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit Edition
Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit Edition
Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit Edition

My computer configuration is:

Intel Core 2 Dou 2,67 GHZ
3072 MB DDR2-667 PC5400 RAM (2048 MB + 1028 MB RAM)
Nvidia GeForce 8500GT 512 MB


I am using the computer for computergames, 3D-animation, 3D-game creation and work. I want a version that has good features (not too much), a cool design but i want my computer to be as fast as possible (I don't want Windows to take much of the computers peformence, because i am using game creation tools that requires a fast computer)

Can somebody help me to choose the right version?

Ziryab

If you dont mind spending the money, get Vista Ultimate x64. Home Premium x64 is also good, but doesnt have all the features of Ultimate.

But DO NOT get the 32 bit versions, complete waste of money if you are keeping it for a while.

yeah, ultimate x64 here, make sure all your peripherals have vista drivers and make sure you won't have any software conflicts
