Windows 7 vs Windows 8 BF4 performence

Massive enough that i went with a dual boot partition with one running windows 7 and the other 8.1 preview with BF4 installed on that.When January 16th comes and 8.1 preview expires i may buy and run 8.1 solely or i may run windows 7 but it depends on performance.🙂
 
What version of DirectX on Windows 7?

11.1, the same version as in Windows 8, gets installed as part of the IE10 Windows Update.
 
I was using windows 8 with bf3 and loved it until I updated the drivers about 1.5 months ago and got that dreaded memory leak that maxed out my 16 gigs of system ram. I wanted the beta to be as stable as possible so I loaded windows 64 pro and have struggled through the beta. From what I read bf4 will be optimized for windows 8 and AMD, I have a 6970 2gig card. So I'm torn, but will probably try win 8.1 with latest drivers on release then judge from there.
