what would you do in my case?


see my sig below... im currently waiting for conroe. i would like a better vidoe card in my dothan rig but cant see dropping $300+ for a 7800GS i cant use in conroe. i just bought AOE3 that can only run in XP. would you
A) keep the crappy 7300gs there in the P4 and play it when you wanted to?
B) spend 135$ for XP to put on the dothan box that you will just have to spend later for a whole new upgrade in july.
C) just get it over with and buy a 7900GT for conroe now and suffer with the P4/7900GT till july.

thanks for the feedback.
kinda hard for me to make up my mind right now.
