i would put xp on aswell
vista still has driver issues, my friend cant install it, he cant find his SCSI drivers for his motherboard, not on the CD, nor the gigabyte website and xp is slightly faster in gaming, just slightly do you really need the SB X-Fi? if its just sound quality, onboard would provide enough quality though everything else aint as good (voices, CPU processing, etc) |

As said above, Stick to XP and you don't really need a flash sound card. Use the money to get a better video card.
Your going to be dragging behind with a 7600GS. I was reading a review of vista and it said "vista ruins gaming" and to stick to XP. Not sure of the details though, But I would keep away from it for now. |
