Looking to upgrade to Direct X 10 and Windows Vista? I think it would be best if we hold off for a couple of months. Why? Aside from the fact that I’ve got no money to splurge on an upgrade, there are simply not that many games that take advantage of DX10. Sure we got Crysis and Hellgate London coming soon but we’re talking months here. Those 8600GTS’es and 8800GTX’es will surely drop in price in the coming months (not to mention the arrival of faster chips as well). Prices of other components such as processors and RAM will also follow suit.

There is no rush to upgrade to DX10. Once mainstream games become Vista only exclusives then maybe, but not right now…
