    A 6600??? Don't even consider a 6 series card. 7600 or above only. As for games being designed for nvidia is only a marketing gimic. I have an ati x1950pro that runs m2tw better than my 6800. Hard drives are dirt cheap nowadays. You can get a 320GB drive for under $100 from newegg (US only). As for Vista, IMO, it would be best to wait. Who knows how games are going to run on it plus it needs some serious horsepower to run it anyway. Best to stick with XP for now if you ask me.

    As blackaxe said, there's no truth in the theory that games run better on nvidia (in fact, before the geforce 8 series came out the ati 1950 was by far the superior card)
