Answer» Introduction
A hotly debated and often-lamented issue with Vista is that it doesn’t appear to perform as well in 3D gaming as its predecessor, Windows XP. While some have reported no change in performance, we’ve SEEN poor driver support in Vista cause serious problems with performance and overall compatibility in various gaming titles. While we’d like to take readers’ testimony at face-value, we felt the need to go and find out what the hub-bub is about and put hard numbers on this supposed performance discrepancy. We’ll be taking both OSes, side by side, and running them through the exact same gaming gauntlet. Afterwards, we’ll look at the framerates and see what’s what. In addition to capturing framerates, we’ll ALSO be looking at general image quality between the OSes.

not looking good for vista right now
In chinese class today, we were doing this project thing and one of my friends had a Vista Laptop. Once she turned it on, all these people started yelling "vista sucks!!" and then other people were debating against that and we had a class debate as our teacher went to the office to see if there were computers that weren't booked. Fun lesson... She says vista isn't that bad but that is because she has no programs or games on it.exactly wait til she doesAt the minute, it's mainly driver and incompatibility issues that cause this slow performance. Oh, and the link doesn't work for me.maybe it doesnt like you calA link that works for me is http://enthusiast.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MTMzNCwxLCxoZW50aHVzaWFzdA== The link you posted was http://enthusiast.hardocp.com/article.html?%3Cbr%20/%3Eart=MTMzNCwxLCxoZW50aHVzaWFzdA==they both work for meI'm sure as driver support improves for Vista and the bugs are worked out it will improve. But still a very interesting article.yea thats why im not GETTING it yetI'm going to wait till SP2 comes out for vista but i might not change from XP to Vista because a lot of my programs won't work and stuff...that will change with timeThat website had so many *censored* JAVASCRIPT ELEMENTS on it that it made my browser crash with JS disabled!! lol Vista is good about viruses, but it has not enough software and games.
