I am about to splash out on a new computer and I have decided that if I am going to do it, I should do it properly & get a nice one.
So, first off - the NVIDIA GeForce 8800. From what I can tell, its nice, very nice. I am thinking of getting the Dual 640MB GTS - SLI Enabled version. However, I know this is the first of the new breed of graphics cards, if I buy this thinking it's the best, is something better going to appear around the corner that is worth waiting for?
Also, I was thinking of putting in a preorder for windows vista, so as to make the best of my graphics card with DirectX10 as soon as possible with the new games in 2007. Being an old git, I remember the nightmare on release of windows 95 and all the bugs, so am wondering if I should give it a bit before buying it. Are my fears unfounded or am I being prudent?
Lastly, if you were buying a new PC, how much RAM would you go for and how much is just overdoing it?
Let me know if I am making any errors in judgement
