Windows 8.1 delivered the best result taking Using BootRacer we measured the time it took for Windows to boot. Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit, Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.The exact same hardware was used for each configuration with the only difference That's what we plan to find out today as we test various aspects of the operating system including boot up and shutdown times, file copying, encoding, browsing, gaming and some synthetic benchmarks.Īll three operating systems were tested using a fresh install with all the updates applied and then our test software installed. Which we believe is the best version yet, if only for its improved looks and functionality across devices and form factors.Īfter running the beta for months, I installed Windows 10 on launch day with the impression that it was relatively fast and stable, though it remained to be seen precisely how fast it was compared to It's obvious now that the 'Metro' Start screen was an epic failure and in my opinion it was the only real issue with Windows 8, as I thoroughly enjoyed using the operating system with Classicįortunately, Microsoft learned from its mistakes and addressed some of Windows 8's shortcomings in Windows 10, Now the Metro/Modern style will have to prove itself as a cross-platform OS that marries desktop, laptop and tablet PCs."

In the end, we determined that Windows 8 was on par with 7 and at times a fraction faster, leading us To make sure Windows 8 performed as well as Windows 7, which was a huge upgrade from 2006's Windows Vista. Three years ago we were benchmarking Microsoft's then latest operating system, Windows 8.
