EVga cards question

for Vista 64, which one of the following should I use on an 8 GB RAM PC
based on Asus P5Q-E?
eVGA e-GeForce 8500 GT 256MB PCI-E w/ DVI, HDTV-Out (Passive Cooling)
eVGA e-GeForce 9400 GT 1GB PCI-E w/ Dual DVI, HDTV-Out
eVGA e-GeForce 9500 GT 512MB PCI-E w/ Dual DVI, HDTV-Out
eVGA e-GeForce 9500GT 512MB DDR3 w/ Dual DVI HDTV-Out


the above are all under $90 and is within budget.

I sort of gravitate to the 9000 series simply becuase of the dual DVI,
HDTV-out. however I want not only performance, reilability on Vista 64,
also usability, reliability on the W2k8 Boot. They have 2k3 driver but
nothing for w2k8

Re: EVga cards question

The driver does not really care how much memory is on your system since that
does not effect its ability to do any of its jobs. For this reason you
don't see separate drivers from any manufacturer based on the amount of
memory in a system. They do care about what OS 32 bit or 64 bit Bit Vista or
Windows XP
