Could you run the benchmark with 32-bit PoyRay binaries? It should not take
too much time to download - and less then two minutes for you to run. ;-)
I really would like to know if there is any influence and how much of it.
When I built my new PC I toyed with the idea of an i7 but found it a bit too
expensive in relation to the benchmarks I saw. Then I pondered the idea of a
64-bit XP instead of the 32-bit I am currently using. Decided against it
because of possible driver-problems and because I had no idea if it really
would be a lot faster. I did not really see much sense in using 64-bit
Vista - I hate the Vista OS from the bottom of my heart.
Then, of course, the i7 is the better processor anyway.
