822844 2009-10-22 08:46:00 I noticed a huge performance jump playing the likes of Assassins Creed in Win7 compared with XP. Previously I couldn't even run it at 1280x1024 without the movies lagging behind the sound. Now I can run it at higher resolutions and higher detail levels and it's still fine! Both had updated drivers and no anti-aliasing. Stoaked!!

Have noticed some improvements, but nothing of that extent yet:)

WinXP was never really created with multi GPUs in mind(Crossfire, SLI etc) and I reckon there would be quite performance increase for multi-GPU users going from XP>7

822845 2009-10-22 09:59:00 Win 7 won't run my USB freeview tuner without choppiness at 1600x1200 on the same PC
that XP happily runs it at 2048x1536, in fact the nVidia control panel in Win 7 doesn't
even give the option of 2048x1536.

822846 2009-10-22 17:12:00 Oh? What GPU? Chilling_Silence (9)
822847 2009-10-22 22:07:00 Only a 9400 gt 512MB.
But this was a month ago and
drivers may have improved since then.
Might have another go when I get bored/have enough time.
(I uninstalled Win7 from it a week ago):D
