Whats in beta Service Pack (KB936330) i'm curious - Overclock.net

Easty · 09-03-07

Well, I'm a little bored its late.. No work for a couple of days. Obviously trouble is afoot.

I've acquired the sp1 beta and figure I'll have a play and see what it effects.
My vista 64 is running great apart from a problem I'm having with winrar taking for ever and I've not been able to master resolve that issue yet.

There are four parts to SP1 so far and this is just one which includes 133 modifications to the following.

Ok everything seem to install ok, It took longer than I expected. 5mins unpackaing and the 20mins rebooting and updating at the log-on screen, With a serious message. like you were flashing something.

Here are the version pics for people that need them..

Prior

Prior

after

I'm not really a benching freak so didn't know the best ones to try.

here are a few from Everest.

CPUandrel Before/After

A little less than 3%.

CPU Queen Before/After

Just about 3%, little bit of a pattern?

memory Read Before/After

8855 MB/s

hardly any difference at all here.

Memory Write Before/After

Again a little over 3%

HD Tach Before/After (72gb raptor raid0)

Very similar. Although burst was a little up from 190 > 205MB/s

Winrar test Before/After

OpenGl Fur Test Before/After

And the one most will want to know.. the dated 3DMark 06

50Pts, betting I'm lucky it's not gone down.

Overall, No great difference between the current Vista performance and these Beta patches. Obviously these are deemed for future use and by then there will also be maturation of motherboard and GPU drivers.

I also ran COH (Direct x10) and HL2 Lost coast at max res/max setting, but the Avg FPS was just within 1-2 so I didnt bother posting.

That was addressed by a recent hotfix I think, Although I didnt notice problems myself to be honest.
