 Post subject: xp vs vista
 Post Posted: Mon May 28, 2007 8:01 pm 
All the people said that Aero is cool and what? How need Aero.

I've been reding this article and benchmark there is very usefull to understand performance in many scenaries.
Cool, dx10 and.... what that thing aren't necesary for people that uses computer productively.

Read conclution.

QUOTE

...my computer perform better in Windows XP. Right now I’m dual booting Windows XP and Vista.

If you really need your PC to finish huge encoding, transcoding or rendering workloads within a defined time frame, yes, it is. Don't do it; stay with XP.


And now see the graphic.

This is Windows XP

This is (fatty) Windows Vista

If you want to read the full article please click here

You can use Windows Vista if you want to see Aero, but if we talk about performance Windows Vista suck and that's the truth if you don't want to see the truth that's your problem but the truth is the truth.

Nah, W2k pwnt 95 in almost every way 8)




....although not when it was first released as there were about 2 drivers written for it :roll: Sound familiar....? XP was better, but no good until SP1 and then pwnt again by MS with SP2 :roll: :roll: Which improved again with various updates....

You CANT compare xp and Vista performance wise, its simply not possible, without factoring in alot of stuff, which you dont do.

I would be able to explain further, but your pictures, which is your only argument, is so small, that i cant see what the hell it is.

If you really want to compare it, theres a few tests here the kills yours:
