@ZombieFX

I’m eagerly awaiting your review of WOT on windows 10 !
But I’m sure you already know that Windows 10 build 9926 loads WOT significantly faster than windows 8.1 does.

Win 10 a hard steer towards all in cloud environment, just have a look at office 365 trust us with your data we will not have a peek at it. (sarcasm)
How any private person do buy office 365 with the free Libre Office around is for me a enigma.

Win 10 subscription model, start paying now and onwards, you do not own a thing but are a renter.
And with so much in the light of what been revealed the last years regarding privacy violations and personally I do not see one single aspect of the next gen of windows that do appeal to me.

The day win xp and win 7 really are not usable any-more I will turn full linux, sure I will miss some games but personally I will never own any computer with win 10 on unless it drastically changes it’s business model.

The older machine is lower spec, but when I got the newer one, the older one was wiped, fresh install win 7 64, adobe flash and reader, teamspeak, WoT, and huge amount of unused hard drive as those are the only programs on it, no documents saved on it, no photos and no music.

The new one has full MS office, saved docs, itunes etc as well as TS and WoT

This is not the consumer release yet, so the performance will be miles higher than this.
The Tech preview don’t have DirectX12, and for that reason, this comparison is very inaccurate, as it this isn’t technically Windows 10.

The DirectX overhaul is one of the major improvements, if not the best improvement. You’re basically comparing a Stable OS with an unstable OS, and it performs better. Seems far more efficient.

If you compare two graphics on the same Operation System, You will see that exist diferences….

It will probably be tied to your licence/cd key.

You seem to be under the impression that WoT has a hard lock on frames, it doesn’t, any PC capable of going above 60 FPS in WoT (which is pretty much any mainstream gaming PC or better) will have great benefits in WoT, it might not increase the speed of the game at double the normal speed at 120fps or so, but any increase over 60 will slightly increase the gameplay speed, significantly increase fluidity and accuracy/response of the game.

Don’t believe that and jump on Windows 10 unprepared, you will 100% suffer a performance loss of around 20% compared to Windows 8.1 and that isn’t just a personal opinion, it’s a general fact.

Win 10 is a great improvement and the OS itself is even faster than 8.1 even if using an SSD, but the gaming part will be finalized towards the end of its production, not because it’s not good enough for gaming as it is even with the performance loss, but simply because no GPU developer actually bothers to make specific drivers for an OS that is in production and is around 7-8 months away from its official release.

It’s a notebook HW, nobody who takes gaming seriously plays on such HW. And I bet the W10 was a fresh install and the W8 was sitting there for some time, which would easily result in the -3 average fps. Correct me if im wrong.

yeah more stable… on 1 map… with 1 replay… with 1 pc…

we should spread the word – Win10 will save everyone from bad fps without a doubt…
or maybe i’m just a little sarcastic about that extreme useless FPS comparison!
