Win10, win8.1 comparison test: see what is different

Since the release of Windows 10, we have seen all kinds of tests, but it seems that they are not high enough, although the overall system is performing well. Under the premise of overall flatness, the performance of some projects has improved, it is very rare, Microsoft claims that it is a set of "designed for speed" system does have some truth. But many users still want to know what is different between win10 and win8.1, or which is better!

Now, AVG released their comparison tests for Windows 10 and Windows 8.1. Let's see what's different.

The platform for this test is the ASUS UX-501 notebook, equipped with Haswell i7-4720HQ 2.6-3.6GHz quad-core processor, 16GB memory, 128GB solid state drive, GTX 960M graphics card, this year is very A device with fire does not have any performance bottlenecks.

In the test, the notebook was placed in a constant temperature room of 23 ° C, the ambient brightness was 250 & plusmn; 50 lumens, and the power supply was planned to be balanced. The system is patched with all updates and all optimization settings are turned on. All tests were performed automatically by scheduled tasks, each of which was averaged three times.

OK, good play!

System startup time: not a manual stopwatch manual timing, but with the Microsoft Windows Performance Toolkit. Windows 10 took 8.3 seconds, 0.7 seconds faster than the predecessors.

IE startup time: Windows Assessment Toolkit test. Windows 10 took 0.45 seconds, only half of the predecessors! Although Microsoft is working hard to build Edge, it has not forgotten IE.

PCMark 8 entry, Internet, video chat: Windows 10 is slightly faster 0.11 seconds, it is an error.

PCMark 8 Office Office Performance: Windows 10 scores 8% higher, the advantage is still very obvious.

GTA5 game performance: completely flat.

Adobe CS Graphics Editing Performance: Windows 10 wins again, thanks to better resource utilization and driver support.

Office battery life: Windows 10 has been stuck for 9 minutes, not a lot but it is also a good thing.

Looking at the battery life: Windows 10 has been up for 3 hours, more than half an hour longer than the predecessors, great.

Game battery life: The last project, Windows 10 unexpectedly defeated, less than 10 minutes (or 13%), may be the reason for the game or the driver, it may be an example, but here Didn't run more games.

The above is the comparison test of Win10 and win8.1. It is worth mentioning that Windows 10 is quite fast in sleep and hibernation recovery speed. The lead is very obvious, PCMark score is also very prominent, Edge browsing The device is a big surprise, completely different from the weak and weak image of IE.

Oh, Windows 10 also enjoys exclusive access to DX12, but there are no corresponding test projects and games. If it can be as strong as Microsoft's promotion, there will be another reason for the upgrade.

The overall performance of Windows 10 is excellent, the use is smooth, the upgrade is basically smooth, and of course there are some minor problems. I believe Microsoft will slowly improve it. After all, Microsoft has taken it this time. When the service comes to be treated.
