AMD claims that performance on Windows 7 boxes with the same hardware as a Vista counterpart will see performance benefits. The marketing slides we received indicate that some games could see about a 10% improvement when moving to the new OS, and that's just for single GPU configurations. With multiGPU setups, AMD has us expecting some titles to show between 15% and 30% improvement with Windows 7."http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3609I personally am skeptical this will help FSX...but maybe that's just because just about every past claim about performance enhancements have rarely come true.
