The results with 512mb ram are ridiculous, but with 1GB seems pretty much enough. Anyway another 1GB ram for me tomorrow with vista just to be sure.


The results in these specific games are not very good but in BF 2142 there is a noticeable boost with vista.

Hey, didn't I read a post a month or so back that Tefra said anyone with 86 or more post on this site that he was going to get them a copy of Vista?

Are you ready for my first vista experience ?

@#$%^&* microsoft, release in 70 Countries , yeah right
I went to the biggest store in Greece for software and they only had the Home Basic version cause it was the only version they could get so soon lmao. Blizzard supplied Greece with more copies of wow than the stupid MS with Vista.

I am so pissed off right now.

It's just the first time that i ever wanted to upgrade my windows so fast. I am just assured that vista worths it, and i can't find in my own country the business version cause MS doesn't give a fuck about a country with 10M that only 5-10% has a personal computer.

Anyway i put my order and now i am waiting from copy and a 2*1GB ran kit. It was so cheap i couldn't resist
