Benchmark Software For Windows 7 Rollout?

tdisalvo writes "We are doing a Windows 7 rollout and I will have to compare major PC vendors. I am looking for vendor-neutral tests that will give me the data I need to present an educated opinion to my CIO. Clear, pretty charts are nice since it is for C level execs, and we need to make it understandable for nontechnical as well as technical people. More specifically, I am looking for something that will clearly show how the same processor performs (better or worse) with a particular build, motherboard, RAM, power supply, etc. My plan is to get very similar machines from major vendors and see which one's build has the highest independent benchmarks. Something with which I could test multiple computers and report on the differences in score would be ideal." As usual, free is an advantage.

    I have my facts right. It was a typo.

    You typo'd an 8 instead of a 3? Lying piece of shit. You were obviously transcribing and MISREAD the number, which tells me the facts: You are walking on the thin ice of on-demand google search knowledge.. prior to me pointing it out, you had no fucking idea what XP/64 was based on. You made claims that were bullshit, and have been trying to google your way out of it.

    Doesnt. Fucking. Work. When. You. Were. Wrong.

    Also, games?

    Also, buggy memory manager of which a game is a single example of the problem?

    You don't get month long uptime out of a heavily used XP/64, because of its memory manager. In the case of GTA 4 usage, your uptime is limited to about 30 minites before you have to reboot to correct the fragmentation. Its only a matter of time.

    Now stop being an ignorant prick. Your googling does not trump actual fucking real world knowledge.
