Worth it for me to switch to Windows 7?

[VF101-jay]

Hi All,

I am looking for some advice, I have a Q6600 quad running at the stock 2.4 with an Asus GTX280 oc (1gig) using the maximum 3.25 gigs of ram (ddr2) that windows XP allows. Currently I have trouble getting acceptible frame rates with even less than medium graphics settings. My question is could I expect enough of an increase in performance to make it worth while to go to Windows 7 and install a fresh 8 gigs of ddr2 ram, or would I be better off saving the cash to put into a new system (I don't plan to build new until next fall).

Has anyone with a similar system made the OS upgrade to play this game, and if so would you do it again?

Please forgive me if this has been asked before, I did look through the forum but couldn't find the answers I needed.

Thanks,
Jay
