It has an NVIDIA 8800 card still showing Beta Drivers and COH is not happy. Sound isn't working yet either (using a USB headset for now). I'm throwing everthing I can think of at this thng and short of DNA compiling (actually have an application that does that) I can't seem to get past 32% utilizaton of the processor for any single application.<br /> <br /> It is kind of cool to run a game, do email, run a movie, and transcode a video file all at once without seeing frame drops.

I downloaded the Vista compatibility program (after I purchased it doh) and it is not sure about my RAID and motherboard drivers. So I guess I will have to wait until Nvidia gets their act together.
