I don't want Vista. I want to wait for at least direct x 11 before upgrading. Can I get by in the meantime with upgrading to 2 gigs and a 10.1 512 dx like a 3850 agp card for a total of about $250 to slug along with content creation and being able to experience new games (minus official dx10 support)?
