I have close to the same system....But my XP/sp2 it slimmed dowm an tweaked to the max
AMD Athlon 64 3700+ No OC
2 Gigs of RAM
2 Seagate 80 gig in raid0
GF 6800 ultra No OC
WinXP pro sp2
I get slow downs if I haven't defragged in a while. I use UltimateDefrag by DiskTrix an set it up for power defrag.
Since I have a dialup I don't have my anti-virus or firwall running when off line..
I only have 2 things in my startup group, my mouse, a razer copperhead an the nvidea.cpl.
I have a fixed swap file on my OS raid0 array an another fixed swap file on my other raid0 array, both the same size of 1.5x my installed ram....
Hope this helps........
