Is Performance Index different per version?

I had my system running 32 Vista Business, I was rating a 5.1 on my CPU
and a 5.9 on my Memory. I just bought Vista 64 bit Ultimate and
installed it clean, with my drivers in place my CPU is 5;0 and my
memory is 5.0.

The CPU drop is minor and of no real concern but that is a fairly
serious drop in memory speed.

The memory score measures the bandwidth of moving data into and out of
memory in mega bytes per second as well as the amount of memory installed.
This means that the amount of memory is a limiting factor on performance. As
a result, the amount of memory in the system can constrain the score value.

You probably have 2GB or more of RAM and since the maximum amount of memory
in Vista Business 32bit is limited to 4GB and the maximum amount in the
64bit version is limited to 128+GB, this is likely the reason for the lower
memory score.
