What forums are you searching through ? namely since you said all the other
computers are lower end, then yours. I have a 1.6Ghz Pentium M laptop and it
doesn't run at 100% cpu, so what does lower end have to do with CPU usage ?

Apple said iTunes doesn't support Vista yet. If it installs and runs that's
great, but if it acts crazy, that's probably why they says it's not
supported. Seems simple enough. What does Skype says ?

I have a whole slew of different apps I run, nothing pegs my CPU out or
causes a major slowdown. I believe my laptop scores a 3 at best, and a 1 on
graphics and memory. So if that doesn't get pegged out, I would think your
desktop should be fine. On the higher end, I have a 4800+ system and it's
lowest score is 5.2 on the CPU and Hard drive and 5.9 on everything else.
Needless to say, no CPU maxouts out either.

Have you checked for updated video drivers, motherboard drives, etc etc ?
Unsupported apps, are unsupported for a reason
