The system plays what you want at the quality you want, I would save your money. Only thing I would do is buy a 4gb memory kit, how have you lived on 2gb in vista?

4 GB of memory will give you some increase in speed.

cool thats sounds good..also noticed on some gpu,s they have hdmi hookups..does that mean u can hook up your card to say a visio tv.;and still get the sound from your cpu speakers?..
