it's not like 'xp supports just 3,25', but 32 bit O/Ss, if he wants 4GB - he has to install 64 bit Vista (I did and I don't have any problems)

or use linux instead (32bit distri though).

actually linux is not a good choice for someone who wants to play games (in 99%)

or 64bit XP
or 64bit W7

64bit vista is suicide

take lower card like one of the 8800's, no need for 9800 if its for fifa
even some 5' nvidia series can run fifa
e: holy shit, take a MUCH cheaper motherboard, man :D such as asus p5ql, gigabyte ga-ep43-ds3l
