Re: Microsoft Releases Vista's Successor, And It's FAST
I have installed on 2008 server everything I would normally on my workstation and running it for several days.
It is really fast and stable, I can run virtually tens of applications, and BioShock and some other high resource consuming games. It handles it with ease and as light as without any load.
The hardware I run it on:
ASUS P5KC mobo
Q6600 CPU
4 GB 800 RAM
150GB SATA2 HDD - OS
RAID - Supertrack 8350 - 8x300GB HDDs
Video - GeCube 3870 - 512MB DDR4
It just goes, no matter what. My 2005 MCE computer is OK to browse folders on it and file transfer is fast.
I will install VMC instead of MCE this weekend and see if slow thumbnails problem is gone.
