Final Thoughts
I don't necessarily recommend Vista to anyone at this point in time, simply because it's not needed. In the two months that I've been using it full time on my Windows machine, I've run into too many weird bugs that I would have liked to have avoided. This ranges from applications not working, quirky UI glitches or hardware drivers not working as well as they should.
That aside though, it's no secret that many out there are dying to install it on their system, which is fine. As we have seen from the performance results above, should you stick with XP to save on performance? Hardly... there was not much of a difference between XP and Vista overall, I'm actually quite impressed.
As I mentioned earlier though, if you run an older machine, you probably will see a greater slowdown than I did. My test rig consisted of a nice processor, midstream GPU and 2GB of ram. If you run a last-gen CPU, low-end GPU and 1GB of ram, chances are good that you will have a sluggish running system.
What should you take away from this article? The fact that Vista actually isn't -that- bad performance wise, if you have a decent machine. It's leaps and bounds above the performance I saw in Beta 2, so I have no major complaints. In the months to come, companies should be continually releasing more Vista-friendly drivers, so the stability/performance side of things should get even better.
This is the fourth article in our Vista series this week. The fifth article was to be published tomorrow, but that's pending on NVIDIAs release of an updated driver. As it stands, the current Vista drivers floating around still have some bigger issues. Once we get our hands on the final drivers, you can expect an in-depth look at gaming performance shortly afterwards. In the meantime, be sure to read through our other Vista content from earlier this week.
