Yup, just got my key earlier. I'm waiting for my DX10 system before installing though. Just as a show of hands, x86 or x64 ?

QUOTE(mengsuan @ Dec 2 2006, 02:18 PM) x86 is for 32 bit processors. x64 is for 64 bit processors. of course  , what i meant was for those with 64-bit procs, would you go x86 or x64 (more towards the unsigned drivers + F8 at boot issue; general compatibility etc). Just a show of hands is enough.

Depends if you're using some applications that is not compatible with x64. If I have a 64 bit processor and I have some devices that does not support 64 bit, I'll go for x86 for now.

I'm using Vista build 6000. Do you guys know any registry cleaner that compatible with this version? One more thing, I've installed AVG Antivirus 7.5 Free Edition. Everytime at startup, it will popup an error. This error will only popup if I shutdown for a while and turn back on the computer, but it will not popup if I restart my computer. What should I do?

QUOTE(wtm0325 @ Nov 30 2006, 10:01 PM) would like to ask, is 1.5gb differs a lot from 2gb using vista? my current winxp maximum usage is less than 768MB, major task is typing, surfing, music & chatting, i doubt is 1.5gb vista similars to 768mb winxp? if possible will like to save some budget for other stuff  I'd suggest you to go for 2GB RAM (as there's possibility for you to run a lot of applications at any one time) If your tasks are merely non-gaming stuff, you can probably safe some bucks by buying a mid-range graphic card instead of high-end ones.
