I know for wprime it is, but it seems about the same for spi on w7.

WPrime is definitely not better on XP.

Welcome aboard.

All my wprime/spi runs are on xp.

OC Maximus · #24 04-19-2011

xp here too

Yes wprime gives me better results on xp than 7x64 but i havent test it on vista yet

Well, I get several minutes faster times in (edited)1024m and up to ~ a minute faster in (edited)32m using Tiny7x32....at least on socket 939.

Never tested with a more modern socket. I just ran it in 7 on my 920 too.

EDIT: now I will have to go home and run some WPrime on the 920 with xp and 7..............it seems kinda strange/illogical that more modern hardware would give better results using an older OS when older hardware gives better results using a newer OS.

I tested it on the 920 with everything set to defaults and OS in normal mode. TinyXPx32 wins by quite a bit over Tiny7x32on this platform. Avg of ~.4 sec in 32m, and ~8 sec in 1024m.

Must be an anomoly of the socket 939 architecture. Sure am glad I figured that out.

Of course it couldn't be that you're doing something wrong.

XP is faster on the 939's also.

I beg to differ.

See below examples.
And check out the other 6 golds I have in wprime if you need more proof.

EDIT: Believe me I ran them all in XP first and was 4-5 seconds slower.

xp is still faster
