My Vista performance is better than Win Xp exept for

with 1 gig of ram I used to get about 8fps less in crysis vs winxp . After upgrading my cpu to a Q6600 with 2gigs of Ballistix , Now I get about 3 more fps than windows xp and 13fps more than my old system . So for some reason Vista 64 is faster or as fast for graphics now wich is good with aero turned on .


But, when I run Winrars built in benchmark I get a low score with Vista for some reason . I get 1.2 megs per second and with windows xp I get 1.5 and when I Run the Ram at its stock speed of ddr1000 it goes all day way up to 1700 vs 1400 in Vista.


Any idea why this might be. Why dont I change back to xp? well I have both I just boot different partitions. and With Vista64 I get ZERO spyware no matter what I do . it just doesnt happen yet plus it runs 100% stable and it doesnt freeze or anything like that its a good trade off.
