uhhhm. I have a

conroe865GV motherboard
2x 2GB DDR1 @ 333Mhz dual channel(667Mhz)
Pentium D 2.66Ghz 2MB L2 cache
2x80GB IDE Seagate HDD 7200RPM 75mbps
1x40GB IDE Maxtor HDD 7200RPM ??mbps
1xDVCD writer
600W PSU
Nvidia MX4000 64MB
(planning to upgrade to Nvidia series 6 with 256MB, pixel shader 2.0 next month)

I'm currently using two monitors, one on the onboard and the other on the expansion card ^_^

I want to play Total War II Kingdoms

Currently have WIndows XP SP3 Pro for a year now.,.
Do I get any advantage when I upgrade to vista??

Don't. Your computer will choke on Vista, even after the upgrade the nVidia series 6. Sorry...

BTW, Vista has DirectX 10 but you won't benefit from it unless you buy a 9600GT or other DirectX 10 card. So again, no serious benefit there from Vista with your setup.

You'd also need 4 GB of RAM for decent performance under Vista.

OK!!! then I guess I won't , maybe after when I get a job, I'd be able to buy myself a good computer... ^_^I'm only 17 years old, still in college, so still have to learn much more!!! thanks a lot!!

also, about the installing it, I was hesitating because I knew that I can only get major advantage in vista by having more than 4GB of ram ^_^
