Windows Vista SP2 Beta vs Vista SP1:Battle of the Service Packs
PCMark is a series of computer benchmark tools developed by Futuremark. The tools are designed to test the performance of the user’s CPU and read/write speeds of RAM and hard drives.
This benchmark performs a set of tests and gives a score called PCMarks at the end. The Basic version was used for this test.
Windows Vista SP2 Beta shows a minor decrease in performance here.
These benchmarks use widely available open-source applications to carry out the tasks that most of us perform on a regular basis. There are three tests, each of which measure different aspects of a PC’s performance. These tests are NOT synthetic benchmarks, but instead they use real world scenarios to test the performance.
The tests are:
GIMP Image Editing
H.264 Video Encoding
Multitasking
This test doesn’t show much difference between the two OSes. Vista SP2 beta leads in Image Editing and Video Encoding, but loses in multitasking test. Overall Vista SP2 Beta is slower by 6 points.
