[QUOTE="samuel337, post: 69174, member: 10347"] Also keep in mind you won't get the funky Vista Aero Glass stuff with your gfx card - I've got a similar one and vista won't take it :cry: Some games won't work well with it either. But its mainly the DirectX stuff (i.e. games) that require a more powerful gfx card. When playing video files, if your gfx card can't do it usually your CPU can kick in and do the work, where as for games, your CPU often can't as the gfx card does specialised things that your CPU can't or does very slowly. It is recommended (or maybe required...not sure) that you have a directX9 capable gfx card for use with MP as MP uses DirectX to draw its interface. Sam [/QUOTE]
