See what a difference the new Windows 7 kernel makes compared to Windows Vista. The windows 7 kernel is optimized for use with Intel core microarchitecture not only does it perform faster it also allows you to put a few cores to sleep while maintaining peak performance.

Asides 
The curtain has been raised (slightly) on the next installment of Microsoft’s Windows operating system – Windows 7.
Microsoft hope it will bring the internet, mobile phone and PC closer together. But reviews have so far been mixed, although reviewers have been limited to trying the (pre-beta version).
The full version is expected to be capable of working with a touchscreen screen, navigating documents and the Web similar to Apple’s iPhone. It is officially released at the end of 2009.
“I have seen the future, and it is bleak. Windows 7, the next big version, the one that was supposed to fix everything that was wrong with Vista, is here (at least in pre-beta form), and I can now say – with some confidence – that Microsoft has once again dropped the ball.
“Overall, I’m extremely disappointed with Windows 7. Far from atoning for Vista’s sins, Windows 7 simply carries them forward, visiting them upon yet another generation. Windows 7 is no panacea. Rather, it’s just more of the same: slow, bloated, and frustrating as hell.”
“When it comes to Windows 7, Microsoft hasn’t just learned from the mistakes of Windows Vista. It has picked up a thing or two from Apple’s OS X, judging by first impressions.
“It’s not clear how big the changes are so far. If you put the beta-build of Windows 7 side-by-side with Windows Vista, you’d be hard-pressed to spot the differences. Yes, some of the icons look slightly different and there’s no sidebar, but it’s essentially still the Vista look and feel. But that changes when you start to use Windows 7.
“For a start the OS won’t nag you as much; many notifications are banished to a control panel, you get to approve icons before they show up in the system tray and Microsoft has reined in Vista’s useful but annoying UAC prompts; you can choose which ones you want to see or turn them off altogether.”
“Initially Windows 7 looks similar to Vista, but there a lot of new features that have been added. Under the skin, Microsoft has been working hard. Boot times have been reduced, and certainly the review laptop Microsoft provided has a fairly snappy boot time.
“Microsoft has been working with OEMs to improve battery life – simple things such as reducing the timer frequency can improve battery life by up to 10 per cent. The networking stack has had new diagnostics added to help users figure out exactly where the problem lies.
“So, is this all a big deal? It’s not a change to the fundamental core of Windows, and most of the improvements sound relatively small. But taken together, they seem to address many of the issues people have had for Windows. I’m looking forward to trying it out, starting this afternoon.”

Explain!

OK i understand. Sorry for what i said i will wait further updates from you.

There seems to be some confusion regarding this video. As such we will be re-releasing more detailed screen captures of the demo. In the meantime until these are ready and to clear up some of the initial confusion Win7 is indeed the one on the right. And indeed there seems to be something else going on when the video was recorded. Intel and Msft worked together on tuning Win7 to understand the architectural changes that were introduced in the Core i7 processors better.

Man I don’t know about Nvidia winning the graphics battle I mean my laptop has an Nvidia chip built in I have the current generation Macbook Pro but ATI makes some of the most amazing graphics cards
at 3:37 pm
Thats not true. During that time, 30 FPS is maintained constant, and the horses handled are dropped/added dynamically. Thats the demo. Average CPU utilization on Win 7 is less, but spiky, thats not a bad thing. Win 7’s CPU utilization of the hardware is much more dynamic. The only problem is the visual pauses you see, which incorrectly give the impression that there is a problem. There isn’t

intel win vista/7 performance? “chop chop chop” Nvidia GPU preformance? “smooooooth” Intel is trying but failing with games. Nvidia is winning in the game department and ati makes them keep the pace
at 3:37 pm
Hahahaha Vista uses less CPU than 7 with the same FPS:D
at 3:37 pm
windows 7 -lag edition-
at 3:37 pm
so vista is dropping more horses than 7, but 7 is dropping more frames than vista… looks like a trade off.
at 3:37 pm
Pauses on Win 7 were unlucky, i agree. but its ok. it shows that it wasn’t cooked
, as numbers were better on 7. i see the memory being used is also a bit less in 7. Kudos!
at 3:37 pm
I downloaded the horsepower demo myself and ran it on my top notch Core 2 Quad on windows vista. i had nowhere near the performance on these core i7!
There are indeed some pauses on the Windows 7 system, but the FPS and object numbers displayed are the final indicators!
Could be something was running in the background giving this impression.
Conclusion: very scalable framework, great processor, great OS. Thanks!

Actually he’s saying Vista is dropping more objects than 7. Meaning Vista renders 20% less objects than 7.

I can say in general Windows 7 is a vast speed improvement over Vista. Only recently I had both in a dual boot mode, and every game I had installed on vista ran much faster and smoother on windows 7. Not to mention load up time and general usage speed. Major improvement. Perhaps not as fast as XP, but for most barely noticeable and of course has the bonus of greater functionality and design.
at 3:37 pm
if you listen closely he said vista has more objects on it lol
at 3:37 pm
Strange demo, definately stuttering on Windows 7 but the frame rate on the screen showed 30 fps more consistently. Probably some other factors making it stutter there.
at 3:37 pm
lol vista is looking better… this guys a fool
at 3:37 pm
you’re wrong
at 3:37 pm
upgrade to xp
at 3:37 pm
ive got vista now atm – should i upgrade to windows 7 or xp?
at 3:37 pm
OK…correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t the Windows 7 machine running at a lower resolution!
So…Won’t that mean it will run smoother with a higher framerate!
at 3:37 pm
Smothness better in 7? i see it stopping
at 3:37 pm
There are more horses on the 7 though, … I don’t understand, how is this fail? It outperforms it..
at 3:37 pm
Wow i7 blows on windows 7.Vista is running smoother. I’m downgrading!
at 3:37 pm
both demos stutter and are choppy, i see the same amount of horses on both… the only difference i see is that win7 launches faster and has a higher core usage in task manager…
at 3:37 pm
Quick way to tell which is which: The 7 start menu has items pinned to it, while the Vista menu has a quick-launch bar. The labels on the video are correct.
