yes, but if you have a wireless router then you'd probably want a pci card to connect to it.

You're going to need Vista if you're planning to buy the new games coming out, such as Starcraft 2 (Vista Only).

You're going to need Vista if you're planning to buy the new games coming out, such as Starcraft 2 (Vista Only). |
Most of which will be easily hacked to work on XP like every other Vista exclusive game.
With the slow adoption of Vista, game companies sure as shit don't wanna alienate customers and downsize their market so much. |

i went with a 8800gt because since the 9 series is coming out soon, you can upgrade then, and still be able to run lots of the good games out now with the 8800gt.
edit: @SACD, i wasnt even keeping track of the prices, came out perfect!
edit2: btw shipping is included in that price i posted.
