it takes longer to boot
some games and apps won't work, depends how old they are
u need at least 1gb of ram just to try it out and 2gb to run it smoothly
u could wait till SP1 of course [it really needs one, badly], but u can try it now too
personally i'm using xp and see absolutely no reason to use vista right now
most ppl use vista coz it loox good and has some fancy stuff which i think for OS is absolutely useless and pointless

my specs are
athlon dual core 6000+
geforce 8800 gts grahics card
2 gig ram
at the moment xp does everything for me anyways but just wondered what people thought of vista
and if theres any benefits for moving to vista.

your rig is more than capable
apart from dx10 and loox probably none
btw sp1 is out but u might have problems with activation of pirated version of vista
