Defo not a fact for all skins? Aeon runs on my revo but no matter what i do it wont run as fast as cev2... even with all features disabled.
Some skins (like aeon) need a bit of beef to run, its part of the appeal. Aeon looks great in full 1080p and animated etc.. but it does not run perfectly on atom based cpus. I have 3 atom based htpcs and none of them run aeon perfectly.
I agree with what the OP said that some skins get slower as features are added, and i understand his concern... He was a user of that skin and has notced slowdown as features and extras were added. However, cev2 doesnt have that issue as butch alwyas adds an option to disable as well as enable. Some skins dont. That aside, its most defiently not a "fact" that all skins will run well on low powered machines with all their features disabled?
If that were the case aeon nox etc would never have been created in the first place, they were created to be lighter versions of aeon... if aeon could run "fast" on low powered pc's just by disabling the features, why not just disable them... instead of creating an entire new skin
