I don't know, Windows 10 seems to be faster on even older hardware. Upgrading from 7 to 10 makes the machine feel MUCH more responsive. Seems to bring life back to the old machines around here.

Maybe you are just feeling a machine without bloat vs one with lots of bloat that has built up for 3rd party software?

At least one aspect of windows10 design will add input latency, which is the forced vsync in the windowing system.

Nope, fresh installs of Windows 7 definitely not nearly as responsive. Thousands of machines a year, Windows 10 is by far the fastest.

Not sure why you're b eing downvoted. Windows 10 is the first release that Microsoft had really fully internalized the lessons learned from the whole Longhorn debacle. That is consumers aren't ever going to have 10Ghz processors.
