Does Disabling Aero Really Improve Performance In Windows 7? Posted: 12 Feb 2011 10:00 AM PST The title of this tip is taken from a recent post The Windows Club which addresses this very question. The article is short and sweet and a recommended read for anyone who has ever pondered this question. To get right to the “meat” of it:
Extensive use of exclamation marks aside (after all, this isn’t that exciting), I had never considered this. I knew 2000/XP used CPU cycles to perform the fade effect they used so I figured Aero did the same thing. On the other hand, disabling Aero could save you a little bit of battery life:
And it could also save you a bit of memory usage:
Overall, I wouldn’t really take either of these into consideration considering any modern machine which is designed to run Windows 7 will have the type of hardware where you wouldn’t even notice any of these tweaks. So based on what I have read here the performance hit is just about negligible, so just go with what you like best. If you have any comments or observations regarding Aero/non-Aero performance, please share. Post from: PCMech. Helping Normal People Get Their Geek On And Live The Digital Lifestyle. |
