Hey Sawa, I switched from XP 64 and gained some. (Nothing spectacular.) The three people I can think of off the top of my head gained FPS after switching from Vista.

Without swapping components?
What drivers did you install and which one left you out?

I had 64bit XP and I didn't particularly notice a massive gain in FPS, but it was a positive difference. I've installed normal drivers.

The latest ones available for my hardware... everything went fine except for losing some audio options. (Confused)

Did you format when you installed Windows 7, or leave all of the old data on your hard drive? It's always better to format and install 'clean.'
