Answer 1

Those are very powerful graphics cards that should work great with Vista. The higher priced EVGA should be the better performer in the right set up. Those cards typically draw 13 to14 amps on the +12V rail at full load. Be sure you have a STRONG power supply with at least 30 amps on the +12V rail.

Personally, I think the overclocked EVGA could just be bottlenecked by your processor a bit. Being an overclocker, I would be more inclined to get the cheaper XFX then just overclock it to the EVGA's level. I would also overclock the processor to at least 3.0Ghz.

Hi there!

Well that the top graphic card actually on the market! The Nvidia 8 series! Well its compatible with Vista.
By the way do u really need such graphic card? Unless of course if ur into gaming and other stuff that requires such power!

If your motherboard has PCI express slot, you can buy it!
