eehh?, download
Yes, its an update.. woop de doo. But do we need it? What does this update actually DO?
Mostly Optimizations and compatibility fixes for all your direct3d/draw apps.
And I think the only ones that get the detailed patch notes are the MSDN subscribers.
You don't need it Hutch because you have DX10.
Yeah, something like that. I have installed it and am having no issues.Quote:

I will get Vista if and when it becomes as good as XP.
Not if you set it up right ive got more points in vista than xp just because of better drivers.Quote:

I personnaly close explorer.exe since it gets you a few points extra.

going to bench mark again now.
Its personal opinion whether you prefer one or the other. But since I think XP is better, Hutch is wrong :D
