    Vista Aero - Performance

    Hiya, a quick question

    If I have an above average graphics card (8600M GS) in my laptop, should I be turning Aero on or off to increase performance?

    I heard that by turning the Aero ON, Vista performance will INCREASE because the processes are offloaded to the GPU... is that right??

    (i.e. if i dont use Aero, Vista doesn't use my GPU?!?)

    You won't notice much difference to be honest. Certainly not without measuring it anyway.
