For now, FireWire devices are the ones that really gain with a RT kernel. The generic Kernels are becoming more and more timing eficient, they absorbed a lot of the RT patches made by Ingo Molnar et al. I dont know why didnt Ubuntu worked on your computer. If fedora worked, ubuntu should also work.
