				Honestly, I doubt it will be slow.  Vista really seems to use your system resources to their fullest potential.  The only reason I reformatted and put xp pro back in is because of major driver issues I was having and a couple other bugs.  The speed in vista is excellent though.

				I think, atleast a Geforce 7300 will be required to run Vista smoothly.

				The 6600GT will run Vista's Aero  eye candy fine (although a 256MB card would be a tad smoother with multiple windows open) .  Of more concern should be RAM.  Focus on two gigabytes minimum.

Yep,currently AMD-ATI & Vista are doing just fine.Nvidia has to provide stable drivers for Vista asap.Beta drivers won't do.I think this is the first time that Nvidia has not provided a stable driver even after the Operating System has released to public.

				The lack of tested, mature rivers is the primary reason I am not installing Vista on my next build.

				Dont upgrade to Vista untill Nvidia gets the drivers right.  They are still a long way away.  I am running a 6600 and it is pretty slow

				As far as my experiences, 6600 GT will run Aero just fine but gameplay will suffer in case of today's graphic intensive games.
