Thanks guys

So, is the jump from Windows 7 to Windows 10 a definite yes or should I stick with Windows 7 on my despktop comp? I already upgraded my laptop from Win8 to Win10 but I don't see much difference except the return of the start menu for which I am thankfull. I don't use my laptop to play games though, I mostly just use it for Netflix, Facebook, Youtube and the Office suite as Word and Excel.

My desktop computer is more for gaming and running graphics intensive stuff such as cartography software (using ESRI's ArcGIS 10) and a lot of Google Earth. I didn't feel the need to upgrade it from Win7 to Win10 before reading this thread but seeing that you guys get better fps and general graphics makes me wonder.

As written you get both DirectX10 and HEVC with windows 10.

DirectX10 will improve how the computer cooperates with your graphiccard(s) which should make your game run a bit smoother.

HEVC is making video in 8k possible

So if i was you i would upgrade but it is not that important. If you are happy with Windows 7 and you prefer that i do not see any reason for you to switch. But Windows 10 will be an improvement for you.

We are on the same page Woz thanks for the help i am gonna order the computer soon.

Thanks Woz i see it is a lot like one of the builds i had, so i am probably just gonna go for the one with strong CPU with the seagate hardisk.

I was using www.komplett.dk but thats a danish site

Jankovski it looks like a great machine and the price is good. The only problem is the shipping, it costs a lot in toll. If i want it shipped to Denmark i need to put 27% of both the value and shipping cost on top of the price. And also i would like it to be ready when it comes, i have put a few computers together but it is not my strong side. But if it is a site which is housed in Europe (not UK) it is a lot cheaper for me.

Here in Denmark electronics are expensive as fuck, i gotta pay 1,5-2 times more to get the same for my money as you get in the US.

13.000 dkr which is around 2.000-2.200 dollars.

Thanks Woz that was very helpfull

If anyone starts to notice excessive lag while running Win10, open your task manager and look for a program called plugincontainer.exe and end task it. Lag will disappear instantly and no noticeable issues with the rest of the OS from there once it is shut down, I have a ticket into Microsoft asking what is up with this program as it jumps to 99% processor usage and stays there for a very very very long time.

Thanks for the feed back Gardner, theese kind of things is very helpfull. Hopefully they will get it fixed soon.

Happy birthday sir!

I will never understand the resentment people have to change when it comes to windows operating systems.

"I don't like windows Vista, I'm sticking with xp". "Windows 7 sucks, I'll keep Vista" etc etc... what is the issue with windows 8? The live tiles? You can set your desktop as the start screen, it's in the options. Miss your start menu? Press the windows key and s to search both your pc and the Internet for whatever you're looking for. There is nothing in windows 8 that will break your computer, I promise. In the words of Lewis Black, "it's okay my little snowflakes".

Windows 8 is great, a much needed improvement over windows 7 in terms of reliability and user friendliness, it's a shame it gets knocked constantly by people who've never taken the time to try it.

I've had an insider version of windows 10 for about a month now, which I got from my operating systems professor at school. So far it's been great, a few bugs as to be expected from any beta, but I love the looks and feel of it as a whole.

As always, there will be people standing on the other side of the fence judging it without ever even trying it out though.

Ford i am using Windows 8 so i do know how it works and i do know you can make it a lot like Windows 7. However i would still prefer Windows 7 over 8 at any time but again thats just me we all prefer different things that part of life if everyone was the same it would be boring. When it comes to Windows 10 you are absolutely right it is gonna be great as i wrote in the top i am really looking forward to getting started with it. But as Hill says everything got their start up problems thats just how it is. But in 2 or 3 weeks when most of the bugs are gone. I will be all over Windows 10 myself it looks awesome and with all these new and great features. But you are right the version out today is not bad at all personally i am just gonna wait till they fix the worst bugs.

Windows 10 has been in active circulation in the Technical Preview for approx 1 year now. Most major issue's with being an OS have been addressed (key word here is major). However given the gaming communities tendancy to find things that break shit I will happily be the unit's guinea pig (my copy of Windows 10 will be installed before I get home from work).

you are right Marsden all the major issues are solved. But there are still a few bugs to fix.

What i have heard most of the bugs will be fixed within the next 2 weeks.

Happy birthday Miller.

I currently use Windows 7, which I like. I hate windows 8. I have not, and will not, downloaded Windows 10 yet. I plan to wait several months so they can get the bugs worked out of it. If any of you have downloaded it, and experience any problems, please post them here. Let us know what your experience is.

I agree with you on that point Windows 8 sucks. And that is exactly why i love that the UI system have become optional on the Windows 10.
