does intel Intel virtualization VT-x enabled in the bios increase global performances?

hi
to use virtualbox or other software , via bios Intel virtualization VT-x must be enabled

i read that enabled increase global performance , in the article they don't talk about virtual machine
but general performance of w10 /8 and 7

is it true ?
have you noticed some advantage ?
or some benchmark with and without enabled

thanks a lot

 

hi
do you keep turn on or off?
i know seems silly but i run a fast benchmark and i found out that enabled slow down performance about 6%

thanks

 

Hi mantra,
I always disable Virtualization technology in Bios, and i noticed the same thing like you, like disable EIST (when avalaible).

Rules.

 

hi Rules , you know i have never seen IEST even i browse bios settings in lots of machines

 

I have this option on a old Dell Dimension 9200 Bios

hi
maybe other user can share it ? if they have notice a different in performance with Virtualization technology ON

 

I have it enabled, since I need to run x64 OS in Virtualbox. Can't remember if I noticed any slowdown when I first enabled it.

 

You need VT-X enabled to use virtual machines . There is no slowdown if you enable it. Most modern CPU's are fast enough to cope with the workload.
