Google Chrome vs Firefox Speed Test

With the release of Google's new web browser called Google Chrome, FnaticTV got a chance to compare the browser speeds for Chrome and Firefox. Here is the video. The left laptop is using Firefox, the right using Google Chrome. Both laptops have similar specs.

Lame
Could have had different Internet connections, also extensions on FF make it slower (Adblock,etc), this is not an accurate test at all, would prefer an actual credible website to run tests

In the description you need to change "Google Earth" to "Google Chrome"

i think its great for an early beta... very successful but i think it will take some fine tuning before i switch completely from Firefox to Chrome, but i like it more than i've liked any other browser other than FF

power of Competence6460d ago

Can't wait till they start adding more features to this browser, its amazing for a first beta.

sonarus6460d ago

i don't know about the laptops having similar specs. One laptop had a noticable brighter lcd screen. Which could also mean one laptop was running on battery power. (coincidentally firefox). This would reduce the processing power and could make all things run slower

Long story short, i am not convinced

Adamalicious6460d ago

I was testing it out to day on the web-based apps that I design at my job. It's stinking fast. The other guys on my team were checking it out as well and had the same reaction. Safari is the only browser that competes as far as rendering speed because they are both running on WebKit.

verb3k6460d ago (Edited 6460d ago )

You can't compare 2 browsers on 2 different machines, probably one of them is ridden and minced and the other is clean. Not to mention the hardware specs. Firefox might win if they switch rigs.

zo6_lover276460d ago

Just use Chrome, it IS a LOT faster than Firefox, but like I said before it doesn't have the features and add on's to make the switch worth my while.

meepmoopmeep6460d ago

give it time, it's in beta and FF is on its 3rd release already.

the open source peeps will be all over this soon enough

hmm seems pretty good, but ive heard other ppl say its pretty slow so im not sure. I'll probably try it out sometime but right now im stickinf to FF 3.0

Boldy6460d ago

From what I have used it seems like the same speed as FF of course I didn't use a side by side comparison but I like Chrome more so I think Chrome will soon be my main browser. From these tests there's quite a large difference of course I'm not sure if it could vary from computer to computer.

Striderhoang6460d ago

Not a very scientific looking test, but results are results.

Firefox does retain my extensions though, like google reader watcher and stumble, so as of now, I'm only using Chrome for kicks as a google fan. I'll definitely switch if Chrome can import my old extensions like it did with my bookmarks and tags.

EasySMX D05 review

You can get Hall effect controllers slightly cheaper, but you'd struggle to find as feature-rich a package without some heavy, heavy sales.

I fail to see how this is AI shhhhlllloooop. Looking at the different games they showed, this has made many of them look far better.

isarai_lee47d ago (Edited 47d ago )

It's AI slop because it ignores the artists intent and changes the details ESPECIALLY when it comes to character faces. The scariest part of it is introducing it as the next stage of DLSS, a feature where the current iteration already has controversy surrounding it and for quite a lot of games cannot be fully disabled. So reasonably the precident is already set for what path this could take, and it's not good

blacktiger46d ago

In case you didn't watch the video then let me point just one part. It overrides the lighting. Then the question of what is the point of ray tracing cost and so on. Many of the lighting deletes shadow, including shadow on the face like eyes even chin.

Chard46d ago

Why stop at art when it comes to human input - why not just have AI play the game for us, remove human input altogether

theshizer47d ago

If you don’t like it, just don’t enable it. Personally I think it looks great from the videos I have seen.

isarai_lee47d ago

And what about when you can't? Cause there's plenty of games where you cannot fully disable dlss already, i mean we're well into an era where it's a major crutch for developers to cover up their cut corners, why would this be any different?

blacktiger46d ago

You are playing with people's money and allow Nvidia to scam you.

In case you didn't watch the video then let me point just one part. It overrides the lighting. Then the question of what is the point of ray tracing cost. This is all lie to raise the cost of the graphic card.

Andrew33647d ago

Making characters look more realistic not ok because we want the developer to decide on how the game was intended to look. - Internet

Change entire game through mods thus changing how the developers intended the game to be is ok. - Internet

isarai_lee47d ago

Something consumers can do to a product after they have purchased it, entirely optional and can always be undone with a fresh install

VS

The leading gaming hardware manufacturer making this the next iteration of the main AA/Upscaling technique that is heavily relied upod by modern devs and is not optional in most games.

Not at all the same but nice try

jwillj2k447d ago

At the moment you need 2 5090’s just to get an image on the screen so this is all vaporware until proven otherwise.

Andrew33647d ago

The good news is you can just not use it as well.

Christopher46d ago

It's all about choice in the end. But, I would say that calling it 'more realistic' is quite a stretch. It looks like AI art, and that's rarely realistic.

Urrakia3447d ago

All the comments I see are reminding me of how we got to the current state of gaming when microtransactions were first introduced: "It's completely optional guys, we promise! If you don't like it just don't buy it!"

I think we all know how that ended up.

Popsicle46d ago (Edited 46d ago )

I had the same exact thought the first time this was brought up in a separate article about a week ago. Took me straight back to the conversations surrounding “horse armor.” Just don’t buy it they said. Years later, many IPs I previously enjoyed are so infected with monetization schemes that I don’t even consider purchasing them anymore.

DLSS 5 and the like are the same thing wrapped in a different package. History rhymes but many of us never learn from it.

blacktiger46d ago

Biggest Scam. Overrides lighting and shadow. So why keep Ray tracing? It's all a scam to raise graphic card. We now see Nvidia with Microsoft downturn anything against them. Sony is next!
