I was just wondering, If I have a x64 based PC running Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit version, should I install all my games in the Program Files folder or in the Program Files (x86) folder, I know that the x86 program files folder is meant for 32 bit applications, does it make a difference when you install games in the x64 program files folder rather than the x86 folder? Would uninstalling and then reinstalling the games onto the x64 program files folder increase the performance of the game at all or does it make a difference at all since my PC is running Vista Ultimate 64bit anyway.
