drake Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 PERFORMANCE TEST Scenario 1: Platform: CPU AMD X2 3800+, 2GB RAM, LAN 1Gpbs Speed measurements in seconds, without Vista’s Cache-Optimizing Test1: Copy 1GB Data over LAN Test 2: Copy 1GB Data local, HD-HD Test 3: open Excel File 1MB, Calculation and Graphic, with Office 2003 Test 4: open Excel File 1MB, Calculation and Graphic, with Office 2007 Conclusion: SP3 Windows XP and SP1 Vista increase the communication speed and decrease Application speed. Scenario 2: Compare Platform CPU AMD X2 3800+, 2GB RAM, LAN 1Gpbs and CPU Intel Core2 Duo E6600 2.40GHz, 2GB RAM, LAN 1Gpbs Conclusion: For Vista, Intel the better Platform ;-) drake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Reimar Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 The real speed of the AMD X2 3800+ is 2.01 GHz compare to the Intel Core2 Duo E6600 which is 2.40GHz, just a difference from 390 MHz! And you need to compare the MB's as well and that's can be a big difference. Anyway, the AMD X2 3800+ is an quite old CPU: 2 + years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drake Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Reimar, u right, it’s not 100% fair. Bud I don’t like to buy now an AMD CPU and Mobo with similar specs. only for Tests. Anyway, the results can be useful to Change the OS, install SP’s or not. Many unbelievable Results are tested many times. For Pantip-Software-Shoppers it’s not recommended to install Vista’s SP1: http://www.reuters.com/article/internetNew...20071204?feedTy and “slmgr –dlv” is history to. drake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're very right!! But until right now there isn't the mentioned patch in SP1!! So, everthing will just work, until right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veazer Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Thanks for the review Drake. Just curious, what version of Win2K3 was used and what service pack? Also, was Win2K3 'optimized' for use as a workstation at all? (Hardware accelleration for video, CPU priority for programs, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjaak327 Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 There are still hacks that continue to work on Vista SP1, indeed the paragon OEM hack is history. Google for vistaloader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solent01 Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 (edited) Until we get speed tests regarding movie conversion, and audio conversion, plus game frame rates, its all just a shot in the dark. Edit @ gharknes You only installed an Alfa model, we all need to wait for the Beta/public release model, then we can see the real speed comps.

sjaak327 Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 ^ RC1 is out already. You need a MSDN subscription to get it, but I'm sure it will show up somewhere soon (if not already). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solent01 Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 oh, ok, then install, personaly I will wait until I see some real tests done on a real model that is public, just my own thoughts though. Each to there own I guess (By the way its still not a Beta model) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drake Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 Scenario 3: Platform: CPU AMD X2 3800+, 2GB RAM, LAN 1Gbps Speed measurements in seconds, without caching Vista, SP1 Beta, RC1 Test 1: Copy 1GB Data over LAN Test 2: Copy 1GB Data local, HD-HD Test 4: open Excel File 1MB, Calculation and Graphic, with Office 2007 Test 5: open Excel File 1MB, Calculation and Graphic, with Office 2007 SP1 Conclusion: Small application improvement, Excel still slow. (Sorry, I have no Intel Shares) Scenario 4: Platform CPU Intel Core2 Duo E6600 2.40GHz, 2GB RAM, LAN 1Gbps Conclusion: Application improvement Comment: Please, don’t understand this test as official reference! It’s made for me to know where the train is going. Other tests give maybe different results. Anyway, its recommended to install the Service-Packs, XP/SP3 with 114 security updates and 959 hotfixes , Vista SP1 performance improvement, function extensions, new functions like exFAT, 802.11n?, SSTP and more. Tip: If u has Nokia-Suite installed, Vista RC1 refuses installation without any msg. Uninstall Nokia, install RC1, and reinstall Nokia, this works. Uninstall RC1 before 2008-07-01 (expires), bud first Nokia. drake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
