Windows 8 has personally solved alot of issues with FPS in my games, as much as I hate Metro or whatever its called, I love the FPS boost.

Also, uTorrent is fine on W8

It should be fine but if you don't like Windows 8 just give it a chance it will grow on you.

Fixes did improve, but also increase my CPU usage at all times, with windows 8, less cpu usage and more frames

That's down to personal opinion. My mate came over one day and said how did you get Win 7 to run so fast on a mechanical hard drive. I then told him it was Win 8. I've got it looking and running the same as Windows 7 - and it absolutely flies. Amazing, a top notch operating system.

Boots up in ~20 seconds rather than 1:57 (Windows 7).

And yes uTorrent is fine, for legal things. I would suggest Bittorrent, as I find it much quicker.

Don't torrent on an SSD though, it will kill it.
