Thankyou for a very informative response! My reaction to that stuff.. 1. Good! 200Mb of extra free memory, but big whoop! (when you have 16 gb) 2. Dont care. I never use multiple monitors, cus I only have one set of eyes. 3. Basically the same stuff as before arranged differently (they have just moved some stuff from msconfig into task manager) 4. That does seem like a good improvement One thing I had heard was that game performance was better on windows 8 and 8.1 compared to 7. Though after looking up some benchmarks investigating that, it does not seem to be the case. There are some differences either way depending on game/graphics card but they are very minor anyway. http://www.ocaholic.ch/modules/smartsection/item.php?itemid=1460&page=2 http://www.ocaholic.ch/modules/smartsection/item.php?itemid=... http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/windows-8-gaming-performance,3331-11.html http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/windows-8-gaming-perform... I kept using xp until 7 came out. This is also what industry did. So I'll probably wait until they bring out another one aimed at industry.
