I personally have not experienced any (major) issues running OpenSim
server and / or SecondLife viewers on Win 7 x64. Just make sure to run
OpenSim.32BitLaunch.exe instead of the standard OpenSim.exe to run the
OS server. I'm not sure about grid mode as I have been using standalone
for some time now.
As far as video performance, I personally use the GTX 560 Ti and it runs
on Ultra settings beautifully. It will also run shadows and deferred
rendering albeit at a slightly low FPS (I usually top around 15 - 20 FPS
with shadows on). So my guess would be the GTX 580 would be a perfectly
reasonable choice.

Hello, I wonder if the OpenSim community has any observations or
warning to pass on as we consider some new computers for our Openvue
grid (server side) and for our SL Viewer client machines.
a) Are there any issues with using Windows 64 bit OS for the OpenSim
server or SL viewers? We have used 32 bit up to now.
b) Is the Nvidia GeForce GTX580 a reasonable choice of graphics card
at a reasonable price/performance point? We want to get shadows and
the like this time.
Thanks, Ai
