NVIDIA - Essential Vista
Windows Vista™ is the first Windows operating system that directly utilizes the power of a dedicated GPU (graphics processing unit).

NVIDIA® GPUs are essential for accelerating the Windows Vista experience by offering an enriched 3D user interface, increased productivity, vibrant photos, smooth, high-definition videos, and realistic DirectX® 10 games.

To fully experience Windows Vista, Microsoft® and other industry experts recommend using a PC that is 10 times* more powerful than those required by previous generations of Windows. NVIDIA nForce®-based PCs and workstations deliver uncompromising performance, quality and reliability to fully drive the Windows Vista OS.

"DirectX 10 means higher performance and better looking PC graphics," said Chris Donahue, group manager, games for Windows at Microsoft. "We are thrilled to see that NVIDIA has taken the first step to help application developers and end users adopt the newest 3D graphics API, by making DirectX 10-compliant GPUs available from top-to-bottom for every type of desktop PC user."

NVIDIA solutions, world renowned for innovation, stability, and award-winning performance, are the choice of reviewers, professionals and consumers worldwide, and are essential ingredients for a great Windows Vista experience.
