Windows 8. Bad for Gaming?

[Barry 1st MRB]

Was wondering if any of you had advanced knowledge of how windows 8 works.

I have heard that people do not like it because of its tile format that is on a lot of phones and tablets.

But does it really effect gameplay (ex: tile stuff running in background and taking up computer ram/cpu while in game. Or similar to when other programs are running in the back)
