Seeing as how the release date for Dragon's Age Origins is coming closer and closer, the only thing holding me back from buying it is that it requires XP SP3 (and a processor that can barely reach req. specs).

So just a simple question:

Is it worth upgrading to XP SP 3?
Anyone that's running it notice any improvements?
Any form of re-activation or key required (using a twice installed OEM Pro. copy)?

Yes, it smooths out the performance and I believe have a lot of security updates too.

Not really, but in gaming, it gives a small FPS boost.
