Jub Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Here's my specs... should run ok...right?Win7 64 BIT AMD Phenon 2 quad core @ 3.61 GHZ 8 GB of really fast ram :) - OCZ REAPER nVidia GeForce 8800 GT <---Should I upgrade? - I was thinking ATI Radeon? HD 3870 X2 Graphics Cards 10K WD VelociRaptor - 300 GB Don't bother upgrading for something like Doom III. Your computer should run 10 instances of Doom 3 without stuttering. Google is your friend for now until some smart one supplies an answer:):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjrambo Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Of the many things I love about Win7 one thing I?ll say is? It?s freaking fast! When compared to Vista. I don?t care if benchmark says only 5% faster? that cannot be right?It?s definitely snappier, loads faster, and shuts down faster. File transfers don?t even get me started; there was something wrong with Vista in that dept. What amazed me is how much faster Office 2007 got!!!! Gotta be a 100% speed increase that?s for sure. The only thing still kinda slow is Photoshop (takes so long to start, but thats typical of Adobe i guess) Also, for some strange reason, defrag take 1 minute to open? I love how my desktop is 100% usable right after login. Vista you had to wait 30 sec or so. Search is crazy, I can go on? There is no way that benchmark tested real life usage? I am wrong? How is gaming performance, does WDM (?) 1.1 help? I have the latest drivers and DOOM 3 stutters, where it did not in Vista? Vista SP2 feels same way.

ViperAFK Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Should i blame WDDM thing on FireFox 3.5 lagging like hell on certain websites? :/Anyone using it here? firefox 3.5 beta 4 is fine here, not lagging at all. So I take it that OPENGL is the culprit? Does Win7 not support OPENGL properly? - I guess not if other people are not experiencing the same problem.I have the latest drivers for everything. OpenGL support is up to the drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
