Thanks to scotteq for referencing this article at ExtremeTech recently. Thanks to ed bott for the thread title. http://blogs.zdnet.com/Bott/?p=458

Here is the article at ExtremeTech, (which has been no friend to Vista) http://www.extremetech.com/article [...] 830,00.asp

From Ed Bott's article;

Quote :

Here, I’m going to spoil it for you and go straight to the last page. After publishing the results of two synthetic benchmarks (PCMark05 and 3DMark06) and testing frame rates for three popular games (World in Conflict, Supreme Commander, and Crysis), ExtremeTech concluded:

As many a tech analyst predicted, Windows Vista’s gaming performance conundrum has largely been solved, and it was mainly due to early graphics drivers.

In fact, I’d been planning to run a few other gaming tests, but the results from these were so uninteresting that further work didn’t seem merited. Love it or hate it, Vista is performing far better than it used to.

And the last word?

It took about a year and a half, but the performance gap between Vista and its forerunner has finally evaporated.




Oh oh but the DRM! the bloat! Doesn't ExtremeTech know that God himself has spoken that Vista sux!
