Windows 8.1 - Bez - 2013-11-02 19:43

Anyone using it yet? I upgraded 2 days ago and quite like the new wallpaper styles they added, also the performance on a few games is a lot better. Biggrin

I tried 8.1 before, I downgraded to 7..
Lost ~20 fps on all games, unstable fps... (drivers up to date).

Windows 8 is a crap for me Smile (I got W8 Pro licence).

Using Windows 8.1 too and works perfectly for me.

But, there will be always people who choose XP; Vista (Weirdly) or Windows 7 as their favourite OS

Been using it for a few weeks now, only managed to stick with it due to using Start8 and the fact I can't be bothered to re-install back to 7. Although I'm sure I will go back to 7. Hate 8, and 8.1. Will really annoy me if they don't re-introduce the 'Start Menu' in Windows 9.

To be honest, I think I'll be jumping around W8. It's just nothing to me. Although for hybrid laptops with touchscreens, I do like the Windows 8 interface, but it still is a huge no-go for me. I'll be sticking to Windows 7 for this one, the old start menu, as well as the Aero interface has been huge plusses in my book.
