i am planned to install xp and linux together when i get the laptop...
xp for gaming only,since all my works are done under linux...
seeing so...i doubt if i install xp, will the game running as good as under vista/7?

u lose support for DX10 and DX11...

i would say stick with Vista at least... DX11 is going to be pretty useful in the future... not juz for games but GPGPU as well...

and of course, hybrid graphic as well... reason described above...

if i using xp most definitely i would need 9600 to run for gaming...
another noob question..actually what does direct X does? what is the different using D9 and D10/11??
and what is GPGPU?

DirectX is wat makes the graphic in games possible...

i am not very sure abt the detail of DX, but as far as gamer is concerned, each new DX upgrade would give u better effect, nicer, more realistic graphic... u can wiki it if u re interested...

GPGPU stands for General Purpose GPU, meaning to use the GPU (which is designed for graphic in the first place) for non-graphic related purposes to off load CPU resources for other purposes.. .for eg, decoding HD videos, real-time transcoding (cover from 1 format to another) of videos, application acceleration (ie photoshop), physics calculation (Nvidia PhysX), high performance computing, etc...

sad....
so s42 should install vista to avoid hassle?
and if install win 7, then install the modded driver instead?
