I just bought half the parts needed for my computer, and now i need to know what operating system to purchase. I've heard that Vista is not the best choice at the moment, but i don't know the reason for that. Would it be better for me to get Windows Vista or Windows XP? This is what i plan on using the computer for:
- Downloading music
- Playing MMOs & FPSs such as MapleStory and Crysis and WoW
- School work, mostly with Microsoft word.
- Watching/Downloading movies.
- Internet browsing
- Watching streaming videos (Youtube, Google video, ETC.)

I have an 8800GT graphics card, a nvidia ATX 775 socket 780i motherboard, and 2gigs DDR2 RAM.

Thanks for your vote and your reply.
I'd also like a reason as to why XP is better than Vista.

XP.
If you really want Vista, it'll probably be worth it when SP1 is released.

Vista, its new and people bash it for not being as good as xp, but itll grow and get updates that are better and more often then xp does.

(this is off topic but if your really into fps games and all that shit and playin online, get yourself a 42" moniter and 3 8800gt video cards to support it.)

Vista, if you keep updating it
Once it gets sp1 it will pwn

If you don't want to wait until then, you can use XP, but Vista will be better

you're getting a DX10 card, it would only make sense to get the second piece to the puzzle.

Thanks guys, I'm going to have a "thank you" section on the side of my computer box. I'm going to include the names of everyone who helped.

So no matter how much I tell people not to get Vista, they do it anyway, then come whining back to me about how much they hate it. So, go ahead and get Vista. DX10 absolutely sucks ass at the moment, and so does Vista, don't count on it improving. While it's made my life a living hell trying to fix all the problems it's causing people, at least it's insane memory usage has dropped memory prices for me Razz

So, I'm no longer going to recommend against Vista, because I'll just get a bunch of dumbasses yelling "LOLZ ITS NOT BLOATED THATS THE READYBOOST LULZ IT WILL FREE UP IF YOU NEED IT! LOLOLOL!", just like you clowns that bought into Hyperthreading.

Buy Vista, when you realize how much it sucks, don't say I didn't warn you.
