No noticebale performance gain.
Maybe as games require more memory bandwidth it wil come into play but as yet no noticeable imporvement, only around 5% MAX, 2%-3% normal gain usually.

But AFAIK there will never be a downside, so if both support 8x, you might as well enable it. Sure it may only be a few % some of the time, but it should never be slower...
OP
That's true - I'll enabled it later (don't ya just hate rebooting? ;P)
