Just maxing my CPU clockspeed + memory out on both OS. Thought it might interest a few folk who show an interest in benching. Xp will probably do a little more with extra vcore but I doubt the memory(ballistix [email protected]) can be pushed much higher.
Max Vista - 4.12ghz (1.65v)
Max XP - 4.23ghz (1.62v)
Both cooled by water. No elaborate phase change/dice/ln2 cooling here
This is by no means prime stable nor do I intend to get it stable so don't ask lol - I spent quite enough time getting 4gig stable (see sig). This is purely a quick bench.
Seems Vista has some way to go before it can replace XP as a benching OS
