Depends....what do you use your computer for? Gaming, photo/video processing, simple Office tasks, just internet. It really depends on how much of a load you are putting on it. I'd use XP 90% of the time. It doesnt rape your system of it's resources just to run, and it runs quickly with todays computers that have 3 gigs of ram out of the box. 7 is just a slightly more refined version of Vista. It still uses a lot of resources (not as much as vista). I am running vista on my machine. I never had a problem with it other than some program compatibility issues that still havent been fixed. I also have gig of ram and an intel 2 core duo e4300 processor. I would like a better one, but it gets the job done for most things. What are the specs of your computer? Really, a brand new computer can be had for under $700 nowadays. It's almost not worth it to upgrade the motherboard/processor.
