My experiences show that Vista X64 is better for F@H because...
1- Can run more GPU's & CPU's than XP
2- Slightly more efficient with GPU only

Newer divers consume less CPU Power than older drivers

And most important, Shader freq increases yield most ppd improvement, and The more shaders, the better...e.g.) 240>216>128, etc.

I am about to explore Win Ver 7 abilities.
I have an XP-32 rig now running 4-GPU clients on two GTX295s right now.

Folding@Home runs just fine on both 32 and 64 bit Windows 7 (Build 7000) on both ATi and nVidia GPUs but I haven't compared PPD rates beyond noting that a GTX285 on Windows 7 64 with on i7 920 will do a work unit in a little over an hour, Vista 64 is more like one hour twenty minutes.

But you must disqualify my findings since I didn't make it to the end of my PhD on Strained Si/SiGe CMOS
