Gaming Performance: Windows Vista SP1 vs. XP SP3

ExtremeTech tests Vista versus XP in gaming performance and in synthetic tests showing that the performance difference is negligible pointing to poor drivers accounting for the drop in performance when using Vista in it's infancy.

nVidia and AMD drivers have finally matured.

At one point, nVidia's drivers were so bad, they were directly responsible for 33% of all Vista crashes. That's crazy.

so now it is about the driver or vista?
vista still sucks?

hmm, no offense but maybe its not about Vista, it is shown pretty obviously

Tmac5842d ago

However impressive these results are, it's like comparing a PS2 to a PS1, since when does the predecessor have the technical edge? I'm sorry, I'm running Vista Ultimate right now, next time Vista inevitably crashes I'm booting up with XP.

"it's like comparing a PS2 to a PS1"

WOW, I guess you are not very familiar with OS cumulative and compatibility progression specially for Windows...cuz like it or not that is how it works

wow4u5842d ago (Edited 5842d ago )

If your vista crashes, I dare say you are the cause.

ECM0NEY5842d ago

Dont even listen to Tmac he is a sony fanboy. All he knows is Playstations.

Where are the top Microsoft haters when you need them? DJ... care to comment? It should be obvious that when a new OS comes out hardware makers need to fix lots of their drivers to work correctly... as they do... the OS become more and more stable... Vista Performed better on many games than XP SP3... will you stop the vista hate already? Losers...

And still no marketing for this :(

Barlos14m ago

Why market something that isn't designed to be sold?

This has GP rental written all over it.

Tacoboto9m ago

They just posted a 20+ minute video about Psychosis and how the game portrays that through Senua.

Regardless of what Microsoft is doing (retweeting Ninja Theory is about as low effort as it gets, and Dashboard Dynamic Themes should've come months ago), Ninja Theory themselves are at least trying.

It's sad though. That new video was a really good behind-the-scenes too, and it just came at such a bad time.

Tankbusta405m ago

How much marketing do games really need these days? People that play games know when its coming out. I really think the days of the constant tv ad etc are going the way of the Dodo. What scares me more is the lack of "previews" on big video game websites, it only got a few on April 4th and then nothing since.

If sony want their games to be more successful on pc and to sell more they need to bring the games day-one like helldivers 2! , and not after 2 years.

-Foxtrot4h ago

If it's first party (can't speak on Helldivers) then the PS5 should be focused on first in my opinion rather than worrying about 2 versions.

Nixxes can help with the development and release the games at the same time..

Tacoboto23m ago

Nixxes takes completed code and ports that to PC. I'm sure they do work during primary development but I like this setup.

PS5 owners are treated as first class by their platform holder, PC players get the final complete version, and GaaS are treated separately. Win-win.

XiNatsuDragnel4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

First party ps5 games need to be ps5 only until 6 months imo because they need to sell consoles still and then focus on PC later.

shinoff21833h ago

I don't see a big deal. The sales also help future development. I'm all in.

thesoftware7301h ago

This makes sense, just now doing it shows how behind and short-sighted regarding PC they were to begin with.

shaenoide1h ago

If they release it day one many will not buy a playstation anymore (me included).
