| | Im running a 6600gt with vista and it works great. The only problem is system performance rating which says the card doesnt have sufficent ram, which is 128mb by the way. |

| there are work arounds to the xfi and audigy drivers so they work in vista (got my audigy 4 working right now on x64). My system on xp gets a 3DMARK 06' score of 6060, but on vista its only 4780. That like a drop of 1300 points! I use an ati 1900xtx and the ati drivers dont have overdrive, which kicks the GPU up to 100% (or more if oc'd) when a 3D app running, without this i get crap score.

Asus-SLI Deluxe, AMD x2 4400 (oc'd to 5000), x1900xtx (oc'd), 2GB Corsair XMS RAM 2-3-3-6 (4x512), 500GB Maxtor HDD w/ 32mb cache, 300GB Maxtor HDD w/ 16mb cache, Creative Audigy 4 (Daniel Driver Set), HVR-1100 Dvb-t hybrid TV card, 580W Hiper Type M PSU. 5.0 score on Vista Ultimate x64, 6040 3DMark 06' score on XP |

| | I have a BFG GeForce 7600GT with 256mb GDDR3 memory and it runs it just fine. My only problem with vista is that my CD Drive seems to be a little slow. I have a 52x cd-rewriter and it just can't seem to be as quick as it was in XP. |

| | I removed the nVidia drivers and got an improvement on my Biostar GeForce 6800 XT (AGP). Graphics score increased from 4.2 to 5.9 and Gaming graphics remained the same.  |

| | X1650 Pro here. Runs perfectly. Even oblivion with bloom and max AA plus everything else at max. Only problem is res. Can manage only on 1024x768 but gonna try again since i overclocked it. You kinda have to overclock this card as the fan runs only at 25 % (silent but slow) and there is a bottleneck with memory. However once you overclock it it runs perfectly. Even with Aero Enabled in the background. Graphics Card Specs: Overclocked ATI SAPHIRE X1650 PRO 512 MB RAM. Ram and core overclocked with fan running at 75% (noisy but I have lourder speakers) BTW I am also an ATI fan. Their X1950 XTX owns any nVidia card except the 8800
