Wich one would fit me the most?
Ill do programing/gaming/recording the most
Also i do not wanna have any overclock things

 

[Fluffysheep]

I would suggest Windows 7 Professional 64 bit for what you'll be using it for. Windows 8 has some restrictions that may not allow you to install certain software that you may use for gaming/programming.

Restrictions such as?

 

[spirit]

Disregard what Fluffy Sheep said, Windows 8 would work fine.

It's up to you, but I'd go for Windows 7 64-bit myself. You definitely want to go 64-bit with this though.

 

[Fixxwisx]

Thanks For the help! I'll Prob go with windows 7 64 bit. is it possible to instal it manualy?
since i can buy this computer with/without them.

Yes

Please do not disregard what I said, it was just extra information to know, here is what I mean: http://thenextweb.com/microsoft/201...ohibits-explicit-apps-from-the-windows-store/

are you kidding? None of that will in any way affect gamers and programmers. It affects newbs like you that actually intend to use the app store on windows. And for teh most part it only restricts distribution of apps that do not have an age rating. So no unrated movies. Nothing more.

 

[Fluffysheep]

Again as I said before, it is just extra knowledge one might want to be aware of. Clearly I had also already made my suggestion of Windows 7 64 bit, which everyone agreed with. Unnecessary hostility will get you nowhere buddy.

Its not that you are giving the knowledge, its the fact that you are pawning it off as fact when you are WRONG. Get with the program.

and OP. Go windows 8. It is the current supported OS, and a very good one at that. You will have no issue with it. Going windows 7 now is just nonsense.

Someone is awfully elitist today.


OP, I stand with the people that say Windows 7

I also say get Windows 7. No need to mess with or deal with the Modern interface.

Id haveto go with Fluff on this one. I enjoy playing minecraft and i am use to older version of windows. If there would be a ''new'' Windows xp id choose that one over anything. But windows 7 Sounds way more legit then windows 8 from what ive read

On one part of Fluffysheep, Windows 7 Pro x64 is the way to go. Not the Home premium. The Home Premium has the max ram of 16gb, Where as the pro and Ultimate has 192gb max.
But, I rather use Windows 8 Pro x64. Which I do.

 

[AntimatterAsh]

You have to remember that Windows 7 will probably be slightly better for third party software as it has been about longer, has had many updates released, but if you want something newer, go for 8...again...I stand at Windows 7 Professional x64.
