[QUOTE="Telstar, post: 199870, member: 58593"] This is not true. Nvidia drivers are generally better. I would go with an ati 2600 only if running XP. [i][B]Processor:[/b] INTEL Core 2 DUO E6750 2.66GHz 4MB LGA775 [/i] I suggest you a Q6600 instead. [i][B]5.1 sound card:[/B] Bluegears b-Enspirer [/i] What's this? never heard of. [i][B]HDD: [/B]2x Samsung SpinPoint T166 500GB[/i] Consider also the WD GreenPower if you need more space (like me) [i][B]Motherboard: [/B]not decided! Any Suggestions?[/i] A reliable P35 board. Intel or asus are my fav makers. [i][B]Power Supply (passive): [/B]not decided! Any Suggestions?[/i] Dont go passive for the psu. Get a quiet one. [i][B]Remote control: [/B]iMON 2.4G DT… Any Suggestions? I’m looking for remote with soft buttons, and scrolling wheel (like IPOD), but looks like there’s no such thing on RC market… I plan on running VISTA Ultimate. Reason for this is, I’m waiting for NVIDIA to release XP drivers for HD video decoding H.264 (difference in CPU usage is enormous comparing XP (80%) and Vista (20%)). Until then, I’ll try running VISTA. Are there any other outstanding issues running MP on Vista?[/i] No issues in running MP on vista. I have it on two test machines (x32 and x64, no issues, except for multiplayer plugin) [/QUOTE]
