Dave Hooton:The last time I did this was 2 -3 years ago, but I've never noticed a significant difference because a lot depends on the type of data access; random being the one most typical of an average desktop computer as opposed to sequential (reading large files).
Dave, thanks for the advice and sharing what you found when trying different partition schemes. . . Scott
KS4J, Thanks for the ideas to think about and the links. Those linked pages address questions I've had for years. . . . Scott

Likewise Thanks After learning more about Windows 7 paging file usage, relocated paging file from my S (Slow) partition to my F (Fast) partition, which is noticeably faster. Also downloaded free RAMDisk software and configured a 640 MB R: RAM Disk for temporary file use by my Windows 7 standard user (with file and folder compression). After changing user environment variables (TEMP and TMP), Logos 4 searches are now writing temporary files to RAM instead of disk.

I dunno what the "Windows Live Display Driver GPU" is all about... I do use Windows Live Mesh, but the graphics card is an NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX... might be that I need to turn off Mesh and rerun the test.

Humor noticed in CPU description since Intel used Pentium instead of 586 for 5th generation CPU so an Intel 386 Pentium is a humorous combination of 3rd and 5th generation x86 names.
Likewise learned Novabench minimum score is 60 (with a CPU clocked at 498 MHz, bit faster than humorous one):

I built this for online gaming, but Logos runs like a BEAST!!!!
My latest build. It runs circles around my previous system (Core 2 Quad Q8400 with only 4 Gbyte if RAM and mechanical hard drives). If I upgrade the Graphics card it would boost performance even higher.

I heard some good and bad things about Nova and with the exception of Addo for my drives, I shy away from these tools, since I have to play cleanup now and see where this thing put itself.
It did pick up a mid-range of my OS/Apps drive speed. which in and of itself concerns me, or perhaps it is set dynamically. It does not seem to pick up RAID, or perhaps I did something wrong (more likely). and the memory is way off. The memopry was way off but this could be due to Quad channel. however, I was tuned down to 1,300, no where near what it listed.. Also, did not pick up the CPU or the GPU speed.accurately.
Has anyone else used this with x79? Thanks and God Bless...
In Christ,

I just built my new system and remembered this thread, so I installed Novabench for the fun of it to see my new score. It has been a pain reloading everything, but I am finally up and running!

OK you got me. I downloaded it and ran it. Here are my results:
