Aero Ultimate Share Posted November 14, 2006 I thought it would be nice if we had a thread where everyone could post his/her Vista Performance Index so we can compare :cool: I've also added a poll so we can see how the performance is distributed. I'll start right away and post my Windows Performance Index: Link to post Share on other sites
James7 Veteran Share Posted November 14, 2006 i dont know what this performance thing is about. are you not allowed to use vista if your performance code is too low? :huh: Link to post Share on other sites

Slimy Share Posted November 14, 2006 i dont know what this performance thing is about. are you not allowed to use vista if your performance code is too low? :huh: No, but Aero capabilities are based off it I believe. Here's the exact same thread without a poll: http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=480220 (and better instructions so that you can SEE the person's computer specs!) edit: Ah, beaten to it by Jeston :pinch: Anyone want to buy me a new CPU :cry:?

DrCheese Share Posted November 15, 2006 I'll probally change the graphics card next year when DX10 mid range cards are released and I may/may not change the cpu to a 4800 if I can still find some 939's Link to post Share on other sites
TheNay Share Posted November 15, 2006 4.2 My hard drive is showing less than 40GB b/c I only gave it that much, I'm using XP as my main OS and Vista as a secondary. Eventually i'll shift to Vista only and remove the partition :) Oh and my processor has only 1mb cache. Vista runs great on my pc. Link to post Share on other sites
BigCheese Share Posted November 15, 2006 Mine says 2.9 because I only have 512mb RAM. Link to post Share on other sites
DigitalE Share Posted November 15, 2006 I get a 2.4 because of my laptop's graphics card... Mobility Radeon X1400 Link to post Share on other sites
MikeChipshop Member Share Posted November 15, 2006 Mine's stuck at 4.5 it was at 3.9 but i swapped the install to a Sata II HDD and it jumped the disk score right up. Let down by my memory now, anyone suggest some good fast memory? Link to post Share on other sites
DigitalE Share Posted November 15, 2006 Mine's stuck at 4.5 it was at 3.9 but i swapped the install to a Sata II HDD and it jumped the disk score right up. Let down by my memory now, anyone suggest some good fast memory? I'd say you're fine. I have 2GB and it still only gives me 4.5 for RAM. Link to post Share on other sites
TheNay Share Posted November 15, 2006 The scores are also based upon speed for the graphics and ram sections, so if you see two people with 1gb of ram but different scores its due to the fact of differences of speed (400mhz vs 800mhz) as well as the transfer rate of the ram (3200 vs 4200) Hope that clears up confusion.

TheNay Share Posted November 15, 2006 My performance index is 5.3. Specs: E6600, 2Gb of ram and x1900xtx Out of curiousity what's your cpu rated at? That's the next cpu I want :) Link to post Share on other sites
Zone-MR Share Posted November 15, 2006 5.3 Here Too... The E6600 CPU is holding it back. Link to post Share on other sites
Aero Ultimate Author Share Posted November 15, 2006 Well now its just my memory that's holding me back. DDR400 running at 193Mhz :D How do you get 193MHz? Why not the full 200 MHz? Link to post Share on other sites
TheNay Share Posted November 15, 2006 I wonder what the highest CPU rating is, I see that a E6600 is only 5.3, I guess the Extreme chip can't be much higher. I guess 6 is the highest or 5.9? Link to post Share on other sites
