    Hi everyone :)
    After a complete week-end of win7 RC1 testing, my Win7 complete thread is now almost ready. It details :
    - Win7 installation, with drivers locations
    - Win7 OS optimisation, to get the max of Win7 without losing any important features
    - Win7 / Win XP SP3 Optimised comparative, with detailed benchmarks results (CPU, Cache, Memory, GPU - Everest, GTA4, 3dmark06, X3:TC, Furmark benchmarks)

    The thread is in french, but the most is understandable, as it's drivers list / locations, services (en), benchmark results.

    To resume :
    - Seven is generally more performant than an XP SP3 optimized,
    - Better use of the CPU
    - Directx 11 is far better than Directx 9 (and Dx 10 ^^)

    :D
