Your Windows Vista Experience Index?

Postby Antony » Sat 15 Mar, 2008 10:43 pm

I know we probably have some of those Vista Windows Experience Index scattered around somewhere. I think it might be a good idea to a thread for Vista Experience Index (rank).

If you have Microsoft Windows Vista installed, please post a screenshot of the "Windows Experience Index" (should be under Control Panel > Performance Information and Tools or right click on My Computer > Properties), and a brief mention about the specs of the machine. Thanks.


I will start with my old index (posted somewhere before):

It was Vista RC1 under Boot Camp in November 2006.

Vista is just as fast as XP here, aside from in games when XP is about 3% faster. (TBH, 4GB ram really helps with Vista... whereas in XP 2GB is plenty)

My Vista experience index changed slightly from 2.9 to 3.0 after upgrading it to Service Pack 1 (which was released today).
