2 laptops... one has higher specs but performs slower. why?

[beloyski]

original drivers doesn't mean its optimized. bisan same pa ang software naka install, it doesn't mean that the 64-bit equivalent is well-written. do a clean install, install the latest drivers and BIOS updates then compare without any other programs na maka affect sa performance. in other words, do the comparison with only the raw operating system and its drivers.

This is so true. Experienced it with a desktop na HP brand.

Pentium IV 3.0GHz
1GB DDR2
80GB HDD SATA

Mas faster pa ang dagan sa akong unit na clone setup:

Pentium IV 1.7GHz
512MB DDR1
80GB HDD IDE

Libog gud ko why the 1.7GHz setup was more responsive than the "fresh off the box" na 3.0GHz.
Wa ko nahimotang, ako gi clean reformat ang HP setup. After that, ning paspas gyud (finally).

mu affect ba na 17" iya bro? nya imu 14" ra?

actually, 17" and 15.6" bro.

but i dont know if maka affect ba sa performance na, or no effect ra.

well answered by poldopunk. . .

in my experience, ge kapoy ko ug configure isa isa with my PC to make it run faster so I used Tune Up utilities 2009, its a all in one PC performance tune up utility and I love it!

compatible rana cya with vista 64bit bro?

[tiger_yap8]

could be so much applications running in the background?
or you can try defragmenting your hard drive?
could be virus or malware hijacking the system?

good day,

2 laptops.. one is mine, and one is owned by a friend.

specs of the one i own:
compaq cq60-215dx
athlon x2 2.0ghz
2gig ddr2
altec lansing speakers
250gig sata hardisk
15.6" lcd (1366x768 reso)
nvidia gf 8200 grafix
dvd rw
windows vista premium 32bit

specs of the one owned by my friend:
hp dv71245dx
turion x2 2.1ghz
4gig ddr2
altec lansing speakers
320gig sata hardisk
17" lcd (1440x900 reso)
ati radeon hd3200 grafix
dvd rw
windows vista premium 64bit


just by looking at the specs, lamang man ang iyaha laptop, unya gi benchmark pud nako sa science mark, labaw man gamay iya laptop. pero ngano man nga mas responsive ako laptop? i mean mas dali mu respond ako laptop ug commands.

my theories nga maybe wrong or right:
1. is it becoz mas bug-at ang vista 64bit?
2. is it becoz mas kusog ang gf 8200 grafix kaysa hd 3200?
3. is it becoz mas taas ang resolution sa 17" kaysa 15.6" and therefore mas bug-at?
4. is it becoz ang turion x2 mas hinay kaysa athlon x2?

naglibog judko unsay reason ani. please help and give comments. thanks.

for me bro, basin dgahn xa programs gi run? or dghan pd xag applications gi install..
