I`m back again, if you don`t remember I had problems yesturday…

I was looking at Gamespot`s walkthrough with Vista and I came across this…

“We don`t have DirectX 10 games yet, but the platform is ready to go sitting within Vista. You will need a DirectX 10-compatible video card, but at least you don`t have to worry about getting one for a few more months. If you`re itching to get your hands on one now, your only options are the GeForce 8800 GTX and the GeForce 8800 GTS. Our advice is to wait. More affordable DX10 cards will arrive before Crysis ships.”

Do you really need a graphics card that has DX 10? Does this mean I have to either pay over 500$ now? Or wait until they release some cheaper ones later? I was planning on getting a mid-high end-ish card this weekend, and it isn`t a 8800, will it work or am I screwed?

Thanks in advance,
