Windows 8
#1
Hey guys, Mavis here...

I reinstalled my computer (cause errors, bugs, and viruses) but my windows 7 dvd doesn't work anymore, so I installed windows 8.

But my question is: is it possible to game on windows 8 as good as on windows 7 and how?

Hope you guys can help me.

O, and my Video Card is not a big deal Sad Here specs:

GeForce 7600 GT
Graphics Bus Technology PCI Express®
Memory 256MB
Memory Interface 128-bit
Memory Bandwidth (GB/sec) 22.4
Fill Rate (Billion pixels/sec) 6.7
Vertices/Second (Millions) 700
Pixels per clock (peak) 12
RAMDACs (MHz) 400



Greetings,

Can't help it. Sad

EDIT:

I tried Counter Strike : Source and Garry's Mod, both are playable. Maybe if I use the game booster from Razor it will be fine. Saving up for a better video card... Tips are still welcome Cheese

When I first saw Windows 8 and used it (the Release Candidate) I hated it.
It was so ugly and difficult to use compared to Windows 7. Now? I love it.

I'm using it for a while now already and it games just fine...
Obviously if you play a game that your pc can't handle it won't but thats not Windows 8 fault.

Just stick with it, you'll get used to it in no-time!

You should have no problems gaming on 8 at all.

Good luck with your Windows 8, i had mine for more than 1 year, but at the end something happened that i had infinite bluescreen all the time during loading the windows, reinstalled that Windows 8 and it did the same after 2 weeks, so i went back to Windows 7, not that big difference really between these two.

Thanks for the reaction guys, it really helped me alot!

The only thing I should do is upgrading my Graphics card.

I disagree. Things are VERY different in some cases other than the layout.
Kind Regards,
