Well, some time this week my latest new presents will arrive for my PC...A Core2Quad 6600, 8800GTS card, 2Gb DDR2 800Mhz Ram and a 500Gb SATA 2 Hard Drive...
I intend keeping XP on my existing 400GB SATA 1 hard drive, and I am going to do a nice fresh install of Vista on the new SATA 2 drive...mainly because I want to get DirectX 10 installed pretty soon to really use my new card
The big question is...
Should I go for Vista 32 or Vista 64?
I know that the biggest drawback is the lack of decent drivers for 64 bit (well..there aren't THAT many good ones for 32 bit either! )
but would it be better to get 64 bit now and be prepared, or stick with 32 and wait to see what happens?
