Nvidia gtx 560 Question

Last response: in Graphics & Displays

Hello everyone, I just had a quick question about the Nvidia gtx 560 ti cards. I have an Asus P5N-T Deluxe mobo and I was simply wondering if there's any known compatibility issues with this card and my motherboard. Looking at purchasing it, and I want to be sure its all compatible together before I drop the money.

Running Windows XP, 4 gigs of ram, currently got 2 8800gt in SLI but looking to cut back to one card. If this one has a compatibility issues or anything, i'm certainly open to suggestions for a new card with this motherboard.

Thank you very much. I had seen a few posts about possible problems with the card when I googled the card and the board (mostly driver related) so I figured i'd ask before I spent that much money if there was anything the rest of the world knew that I didnt.

Another newb question. This will actually be the first time i've replaced my video card, is there anything special I need to know, or do? In regards to getting rid of the old ones from the system, and drivers, etc

Sound advice but I dont think I can really afford to do both the card and 7 right now, not sure what its running cost wise. As long as XP can run with the card, i'll take the challenges one step at a time :p 

My father had vista on his laptop, not sure if he was SP2'd or not, but it just felt like it was constantly getting in my way, like a well meaning caretaker or something lol

I know others have said "Just pop the card in and Windows will do the rest." but I've found that doesn't always work with the later drivers so I would advise that you uninstall the drivers that you are using now then change cards over, reboot and then install the latest drivers.
