With older versions of Windows and still through XP I tend to be a graphical minimalist geek. I would always use the most minimal graphics effects possible. Now that I have finally moved to Vista I have gone to the other extreme. I don’t have the worlds most powerful system but definitely great for running Vista. An AMD Athlon 64 x2 4200+ CPU, 4GB of DDR2 SDRAM, and now the NVIDIA GeFORCE 8600 GTS graphics card. I have the full on Aero features going on and it’s all snappy and extremely crisp! I got the PNY version of this card which only put me out $199. This is the largest and heaviest card I think I have ever used and it is extremely quiet. I would be very interested in hearing what kind of systems you the readers have. What you think is important component in your computing. Are you a graphics freak or a graphical minimalist as I used to be?
I have never been much of a gamer but now I might change my tune on that as well!
You can get more information on this card and read my review over on CNET!
