Im having the reverse..definitely faster for me.. -----Original Message----- From: "Thane Sherrington" <[email protected]> Sent: 8/13/2015 8:25 AM To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [H] Is W10 available yet?
You find 10 faster to boot and snappier than Win 7? That's completely the opposite of what I've found. The laptop I upgraded myself is definitely lethargic (there is a hesitation after every click) and I've seen two PCs where the owners wanted them rolled back to 7 because of how much slower they had gotten. Perhaps a fresh install might be faster, but I haven't had time to test that yet. I would expect games to be faster due to the new DirectX, but unfortunately I don't have much time to game any more.
