Dear All, There is a lot of confusion regarding XP x64 gaming performance against younger OS, I myself, have experienced a more than satisfying performance on almost all gaming that I have come across, given the fact that XP doesn't support newer Directx versions, obviously that are some features missing to make a full comparison valid, but what are you thoughts? I reckon given the fact that it runs with less services, more CPU raw power is available to run these demanding programs.
