Question Windows XP

real quick...
i was looking around for 2d bench, and all the tweaking for it, and how i saw there most people are using the tiny xp or the traditional chinese windows xp is that REALLY better than all other xps?
i been using simplified chinese windows all along and seems like worked the same msot the time when i used traditional chinese...

and i know when i am doing super pi it's based on both ram and cpu, and the lower the subtimming the faster it gets in the end... dose rampage extreme or DDR3 overall help with the sp scores?

wprime is cpu based right? as many cores you have the higher the core speed is the higher score you gonna get out of it...

superpi 1m.....x48 and p45 are very close....

superpi 32m ....ddr3 seems to help alot..the sheer bandwidth just leaves the ddr2 behind

wprime is cpu and some tweaks..like display resolution
