The new driver tests we are going to carry out today will be rather unusual. We will test new ATI and Nvidia drivers in the new Windows 7 operating system that promises to have a great future ahead of it.

Performance in Semi-Synthetic Benchmarks

Futuremark 3DMark Vantage

We minimize the CPU’s influence in 3DMark Vantage by using the Extreme profile (1920x1200, 4x FSAA and anisotropic filtering). We also publish the results of the individual tests across all display resolutions to provide a full picture.

The tests in 3DMark Vantage didn’t reveal any advantages of Windows 7 vs. Windows Vista, which we had actually expected.

With a few exceptions the results of individual tests confirmed the total score. Only in 1280x1024 Radeon HD 4870 X2 demonstrated about 6% improvement.
