just wondering how shiii on DX10 would perform

So far I am quite happy with my current hardware and WindowsXP (slimmed down), DX9 and SHiii(GWX). I have no reason to update to DX10 hardware and the inevitable Windows Vista. Not yet.
I am just wondering how DX9 games perform with DX10 hardware, so in this case, how does SHiii performs with DX10 hardware, or will as usual the overkill in processorpower (easily) compensate for the inefficiencies in Microsofts OS's.
What's the better option: to run windows XP (with DX9) on DX10 hardware, or to run DX9 games, SHiii e.g., on Vista (or whatever their next obese OS will be).
