    That is because ReadyBoost, in conjunction with SuperFetch, is integral to the design of Windows 7. It is not solely for 'low RAM systems', although the effect on those systems may appear more beneficial. The MS engineers did some good work here.

    Think of readyboost more of a disk cache.

    I think you'll get slightly more performance out of multi-core compared to readyboost.
