I was considering purchasing an ATI 3850 AGP video card but found out it might have issues with the nforce3 chipset. I have a Gigabye mainboard. Any thoughts?

Nforce 3 + Ati card + AMD Dual Core won't work under vista, u have to disable one core of your cpu to work.
If u have single core CPU then u have no problem.
Under WinXP works fine with single or dual core cpu.
