although this is not always true, but in your case, it will be a considerable performance boost.

in your case games will see a day and night difference.
vista too should benefit a lot.
even xp should become a bit more snappier.

Use 512mb and 1GB RAM on a Intel P4 2.0GHz and try to tell the difference especially for non gaming purposes. Then you will know.
