Benchmark Performance vs Operating System
Certain benchmarks run faster under certain operating systems. The following link shows which operating system appeared to be most ideal for the listed benchmarks. These are based off one user's xperience and testing and may not be 100% accurate.
Quote: SuperPi 1M = Windows XP SP3 SuperPi 32M = Windows 2003 Server x86 wPrime 1024M & 32M = Windows Vista x86/x64 & Windows 2008 Server x86/x64 Hexus PiFast = Windows XP SP3 & Windows 2003 Server ( All Editions ) x86 & x64 3D Mark2001SE = Windows XP SP2/SP3 3D Mark03 = Windows XP SP2/SP3 3D Mark05 = Windows XP SP2/SP3 3D Mark06 = Windows XP SP2/SP3 3D Mark Vantage = Windows Vista x64 PC Mark 04/05/Vantage = Windows Vista x64 PC Mark2002 = Windows 2000 SP4 AquaMark 3 = Windows XP SP2/SP3 Results may vary |
This is an older list from one greek user. Things change a little between camps/drivers too, Nvidia and ATI.

haven't play with it yet Quote:
i already have that since the first time we ware on the phone just never got around play with it yet lol i'll make a guide for the chinese server tweak guides |
Never really looked into 3D, due to lack of cpu power, but am going to try and give it a go
Is W7 still king for 03? |
Aquamark + ATI post 48** = Win7
3dmark05 = Vista |
spi 1m = XP SP3 or Win7 x86
spi32m = 2k3 TW or XP SP3 pifast = XP SP3 vga drivers installed wprime ( both 1024 and 32 ) = XP SP3 vga drivers installed AM3 = Win7 x64 05 = Vista 03 = XP SP3 06 = XP SP3 Vantage = Win7 x86 Unigine = Win7 x64 all these with latest cards . On older cards some OSs should change for good eff. I use full installations of windows...but sometimes BZ's light editions :p: |
Was wondering, which versions of the various OSs do people recommend?
At the mo I use 'tinyxx' Wondering if there are better alternatives? For instance BenchZowners? |

plz explain.... |
well ... I would say yes but once I haven't tested yet I can't say nothing :D

Honestly in the next couple of generations of windows I expect we will see a move to true 64bit computing where you will need a software emulation of x86 instructions. that would be sweet and really make a nice performance increase :) |
so...that means if i move into 64bit OS...i wont have any problems in terms of benching?
am i right? OT: what is the minimum resolution needed for running UNIGINE heaven benchmark? do i really have to upgrade my display right now? /OT |

Whatever you get, make sure you get a more modern x64 OS. WinXP x64 is buggy as hell due to lack of driver support. That's what I was using before I made the jump to Vista Ultimate x64 about 2-3 years ago. When using XP x64 I was so tempted to just dump half my ram & go back to 32-bit. And I'd definitely go 7 over Vista any day |
well.....7x64 FTW!
