Well I'd wait for MS to come out with a list of recommended components, and then go one higer. That's what I plan to do.

Hey Rimshot, It seems I got so frustrated with my present PC that I overlooked the "requirements needed' . Your Advise is called "WISDOM". Thank you very much. THAT's what I'll do also unless I have no choice [ such as my PC completely falls apart - - - - or I shoot it - - - Grin
