QUOTE(youliang @ Aug 8 2007, 07:00 PM) hmm. so far i dont see any difference in that readyboost ram.. maybe because im having 2gb of system ram.. afaik, the usb ram function only kicks in when your original system ram is not enough.. but not too sure.. The rdyboast feature require a high speed flash drive..if ur drive not enough fast..it might even slow down more..Like Corsair Voyager..  Added on August 8, 2007, 8:19 pmQUOTE(utopian86 @ Aug 7 2007, 11:33 PM) I'm just worried about ur GC. other specs are fine. nero,acdsee,msn all are vista support  btw, anyone know how much does dell remote control cost? does it use bluetooth? cause our pc doesnt have bluetooth, http://support.ap.dell.com/support/topics/...D5&doclang=en#1The GMA950 still able to run la..but maybe will more stress abit.

QUOTE(teikwing @ Aug 8 2007, 09:27 PM) sure? i heard like its 2GB. craving for Flip3D & Dreamscene. but sure my Intel GMA would be dead. wow..means the remote is free with 1420,1520? maybe have to get an external IR thingie??  Nola..1GB is sufficient to run smooth vista in desktop or some office program..but not for gaming la.Of course some old games can run smooth there..like wc3..And a dual core CPU is recommended.Even i tried my AMD Athlon 3200+ in it..it seems to be stress when i tab my program around..So u can dramatically see the diff between single and dual core.

QUOTE(teikwing @ Aug 12 2007, 06:46 AM) means when buying Vista..i should go for the 32bit version only? thanks for the info.  currently how much does Vista Ultimate & Home Premium retail? is it possible to get OEM version from Dell (w/o buying a new PC) or from shops? Yup..impossible for 64bit..unless your system is really decent to run it.And many of application still haven develop in 64bit environment.
