I am thinking on getting a second GTX 280 on the cheap for a SLi set up, torun new games in SLi I will need the latest nvidia Drivers. Given the continousing issues with Vista divers and 5040x1050 / custom resolutions, I wonder if installing a copy of XP on a second Hard disk and dual booting as needed may be the way do go. So is XP32 working with the latest drivers for everyone? |

one other consideration of 32 bit OS is the 3GB addressable memory limit. |

Yep, I hear even with 280 GTX SLI (2GB RAM total), you still get around 3GB free. Is that right? I think I can live with that given than XP needs less of it to run than Vista which I run at the moment with 4GB total. |
