Best Windows Os For Gaming (2024 Updated)

Although “Windows 10 Pro” DOES have numerous beneficial features, I’m NOT a 100% fan of this operating system. Nevertheless, finally upgrading from “Windows 7 Pro” (my all-time favourite version) became necessary in order to maintain system compatibility with SOME important software.

“TurboTax,” for example. In order to reduce the “intrusiveness” of “Windows 10,” I, almost immediately, had to DISABLE the AUTOMATIC UPDATE feature. and MicroSoft had not made the process of so doing as straightforward as it should have been.

Many “kudos” to the numerous people, who were kind enough to post online about this issue! I’m still in the process of adjusting to some of the “Windows 10 Pro” shortcomings. but, overall, I’m not unhappy.

Please understand that, in saying all of this, it is NOT really my intention to “damn” the operating system “with faint praise. ” Cheers!.

Personally, I cannot “Believe,” I am saying This, LOL, but Windows 10 Pro in my opinion is by FAR the Best Operating System that MS has ever Made! So Impressed! I think that Literally “The World,” has been waiting for a Good Operating System for Well Over 35 years!! Now, They Actually Did it! LOL.

It is even a little better than the Windows 10 Home. Has several little Extra’s that make it so Nice and Special to Have! Congratulations MS. “You Finally Did It!!” LOL 😉 By the Way, the Company Here, that sells this Product Helped me So Much and Gave Phenomenal Support and it was AFTER the Sale too! I will be buying from them for Life! Great, and Kind Customer Support, so Helpful and Never tried to rush me off the phone either.

So Professional and a pleasure to speak with also! ;-).

Buyer beware. I was hoping these were some kind of grey-market import from a cheaper country, in which case I am fine with bypassing unfairly inflated regional pricing, however this is not the case. The key provided is a MAK key (Multiple Activation Key) which is not legal to resell and can only be sourced a handful of ways.

The primary ways are either in an Microsoft MSDN account (for developers to use on test PCs), or via a Microsoft VLSC account (for large corporations that buy thousands of keys at a time) – it is a breech of contract to on-sell either of these key types, and they will eventually be cancelled and blacklisted by Microsoft preventing any further activations on it.

MSDN accounts cost thousands, and when they’re found to be abusing their keys the account is banned. Likewise VLSC accounts owned by businesses purchase their keys for more than $20 each, and abused keys cost them money.

So, unless the sellers are intentionally LOSING MONEY then these keys are most likely sourced llegitimatley, and liklely not from the owners of the accounts – infer from that what you will!.

I mean, it’s Windows. You’ve used it. I’ve used it. Everyone not living in a cave in the mountains for the past few decades has used it. Buying it directly from Amazon gives you the certainty that this will be a legit and official product key.

You’ll get the key in the Amazon software library, as well as via e-mail. Follow the download link from Microsoft, stick it on a USB drive and you’re good to go. By way of actually reviewing the product: Pros: * does ALL THE THINGS, as expected * it’s fast, and it boots quickly * on a modern PC, it even installs very quickly * gets regular updates automatically, fingers crossed this is the last version I have to buy * you can now get a Linux console almost out of the box, which probably covers 90% of why I would have otherwise installed Linux; I imagine we’d be having a different conversation if Linux GUIs had fewer bugs * you can encrypt your entire drive * wait, what, you can log in with a PIN now Cons: * there’s quite a few intrusive features you can’t turn off around diagnostics * can’t change the default start menu search engine and browser without resorting to third-party tools * I like being able to use my Hotmail account (well, sort of), but I don’t like that I can’t choose the name of my user folder * I want to say it’s expensive, but it did take decades to get here, and it receives constant care and maintenance, and in theory I should have gotten the Home edition (figured BitLocker and a few other bits and bobs might be worth the Pro, especially as – afaik – the retail version won’t object to being moved to a new computer in a few years, if civilization hasn’t collapsed; and if it has, the activation flow might be irrelevant, assuming I can find a diesel generator in someone’s basement and power up the PC).

Five stars. Realistically though, all the major OSes should be five stars overall, for different reasons, unless you’ve got a very specific beef with one of them. Like those bloody Linux desktop UIs that still don’t work well after a few decades (but then, it’s free and powers all manners of gadgets and gizmos and servers, so, see, five stars, just, you know, grudgingly).

Er, right, so yeah, good product.

I had to replace windows 7. I had missed placed key so loaded licensed Vista on machine and tried to get Windows 11 tool to work which was a complete waste of time so down loaded Windows 10. Software was to big for DVD so set up bootable flash drive after purchasing 10 license key.

Eventually got it all working I had to use legacy Windows 8 video driver as Windows 10 does not support Geforce 7300gt video card and Windows generic 10 display driver was unable to drive display to native resolution.

Screen was still unstable with Windows 8 driver as video card driver combination went bananas with transparency switched on. So none of my issues were associated with key and key arrived promptly in my mail box.

I do like Windows 7 but surfing the net with 7 is suicidal as security patches and virus software is well out of date and not being patched. Would not hesitate to do more business with this company.

Although the eBay description I purchased from didn’t specifically state this, it’s an OEM version. Buying an OEM version of Windows is usually much cheaper than paying the full retail price, while it’s basically an identical product (with less flashy packaging).

The main downside of OEM versions of Windows is that they are tied to one computer and set of hardware and you may not be able to reinstall it on another computer in future when you upgrade or replace it, so be aware of that.

It’s designed for installing Windows on a brand new computer, but I was able to also use it to upgrade my Windows 10 Home to Windows 10 Pro, although to do so I had to first upgrade to Windows 10 Pro TRIAL version (using a publically available licence key found online) and then convert it to the full licenced version using the key in the purchased package.

That worked beautifully, and I would gladly use this method again in future.

Vendor’s response to assist was excellent. Eventually got Win 10 Pros OEM activated with a digital password from vendor. I blew up my original Win10 Pro installation somehow, don’t ask. Installed a recovery disk, I had made from original and it wouldn’t activate.

Installed the “new” OEM Win 10 Pro and it wouldn’t activate since “it wasn’t a digital/retail copy”. Three hours back and forth by email with vendor (very helpful and interested in resolving my issue) and after “trying everything” he sent me a digital key which activated my installation.

After the fact, trying to find out what makes OEM and digital retail so different, I’ve decided no one knows or can explain clearly or for sure.

Downloaded Windows 10 Home from Microsoft’s website to install Windows on a new computer. When I went to activate this using the key this company sold me, Window’s indicated to me the key was not for an authentic Windows 10 Home version, and that non-authentic versions of Window’s were less secure.

Not wanting to wait to finish setting up Windows on a new computer, or install a less secure version of Windows 10, I acquired a legit Window’s 10 key from someone else. This company failed to provide me with an authentic Window’s 10 Home key, and has since neglected to refund me.

This purchase was a total and absolute waste of money, I will never give them my business again.

Just buy the Pro edition if you are even looking at purchasing an OS. Pro allows control over your upgrades without having to hack the registry (for me generally my last option), and with Window’s long term history unless you have a major problem a “fix” addresses, you are always safer giving it a few months to season and get bug reports from others.

There will always be those who are forced, like to test new patches, or simply blindly do so. Don’t be test bed zero unless you want to deal with the headaches. Buy Pro instead. Maybe it was time anyways for a new case and components in general, but I’d rather have waited the year, or saved the $800 I tacked on in edition to my usual $1000 refresh (just one of those tech points where I don’t care to gamble on MBs coming fresh from the factory with newer BIOS supporting Cezanne CPUs.

No old cpu on hand that would allow me to flash the bios up if needed so I am going with a full build. Yeah, it does save me some time and money, but I tend to increment an spread costs over time instead of front load it).

This was a fiasco for me paid big bucks for a disc to install Windows on my new PC build. Like most PC towers now a days it has no disc drive so I waited a week to get a product key mailed to me. I built my 1st PC and didn’t have any other system to transfer Windows from hence my willingness to pay the premium for my OS.

Rather than it being the USB installer that I see everywhere that I could just plug in and let it do its thing. It was instead the disc which was of no use other than as a Frisbee. I instead had to buy a USB and find someone to let me use their computer to setup said USB so I could get Windows.

So I cannot speak on how the installer worked as I had to make my own. Perhaps it was my fault but I did not see where it listed if it was USB or CD so please learn from my mistake and not fall into the same situation as me.

If you just built a new system and have no disc drive don’t waste your time or $$$ on this, if you have a disc drive then by all means disc arrived fine and had no damage so it would likely work fine.

As for me I paid way too much for a product key, my wallet is still on fire.

This is very compatible and very user-friendly. Microsft introduces this operating system recently. After Windows 7, this is the most reliable and stable OS platform currently available which is offered by Microsoft.

there are very interesting features like touch-display support and tablet mode far better than windows 8. 1. Most of the applications also support Windows 10. Most companies are choosing with windows platform because of its availability, and support and the employees are familiar with the Windows 10 operating system.

Administration can control users’ access using Active Directory and group policies according to the company rules and behaviors. Security patches and updates are released frequently. This is a good point because the IT field is dynamic and changes very quickly according to that Microsoft is proving the most important updates to users.

They have implemented the windows store and have both free and purchased apps like in the android apps store. they have introduced Edge browser far better than internet explorer and supports the websites.

So no need to install other browsers like google chrome or firefox. Users are also encouraged to work with the OS because it’s graphically pleasant to users and Microsoft products like office365, MS office, MS Teams etc support to Windows 10 operating system.

Especially management team uses the touch display laptops, windows 10 is very easy to introduce to them. Upgrading the hard disks with SSD means can get the best performance from the Operating system.

If you are using windows 7 you do not have to format and install the OS you can easily update it to windows 10. Usually.

The user-friendly behavior of the operating system compared to older versions and Linux is exceptional and extraordinary. It is easy for a beginner to understand the working also. I am a continuous user of Windows and Linux operating systems.

When comparing both of them, what I felt is Windows 10 makes it easier than Linux for easier actions and all. Also, the user-friendliness is much better than in the older versions of windows. They have released two versions 32 bit and 64-bit.

At 01Robot we only use windows 10 we tried to upgrade to windows 11 but it still has a lot of bugs so to us windows 10 is the perfect version to use. We are talking about an OS that was developed by Microsoft so you can completely rely on it.

With its periodic updates, you can make sure that you’ll not gonna face any bugs. I truly recommend this OS, especially for software developers.

I had initially installed Windows 10 Pro from a download from Microsoft but I needed activation to occur. Hence I bought the above disc with official code. I decided to over write the Win 10 Pro with the new install disc however when I tried to install the software from the new CD, the program requires as part of the installation process to key in the code that came with new CD however the program rejected the new install disc official code.

Then I used the official code that came with the above Win 10 Pro disc and loaded into the preexisting install Win 10 Pro and “voila” activation was successful. Moral of the story is to not download Windows 10 Pro and install but use only the new CD on a fresh PC to install the software and “maybe” activation will be successful.

Terrible! Replaced old workstation (Win10Pro-64bt, used for 6 years) with new. Bought new license for Win11 Pro-64. (Been doing this for 30+ years. ) Major problems (among others): 1-Indexing: Deletes files, folders and indexes other in wrong places, misses others.

Search & Indexing takes forever. We put our OS and apps on C:\ drive and all data including OUTLOOK on a separate drive to aid in security. Search and Indexing cannot deal with them. 2- When we backup to an external Seagate drive (been using them successfully for years), if the drive is left plugged in after backup or after use and during new reboot, the OS locks up on any attempt to use file explorer.

Tried to report to MS, but it’s a joke: Must create an account (which their sign-up failed at the end and acct could not be created); and all reports on same/similar issues already on their site go without solution.

TOTAL JOKE. Have lost uncountable hours of billable time dealing with this – going back to Win10 Pro. DO NOT BUY THIS OS AT THIS TIME is my opinion.

For what it was designed to do, it does it perfectly. The USB drive worked exactly as I’d want it to. Windows 11 has quirks compared to Windows 10, it’s lost some features, added new ones, made weird changes — but at the end of the day, I’m enjoying it.

The biggest annoyance that happens daily for me is the context menu (right clicking) for Windows 11 is really shortened and has icons for certain actions like ‘rename’ ‘copy’ instead of labels. And if you have software that adds stuff to the context menu (Such as Open in VSCode or Make available offline for Dropbox), you have to click show more which changes the context menu from the Windows 11 aesthetic to the exact same menu that existed in Windows 10.

It’s a weird thing that Microsoft tends to do: they write programs to replicate the behavior that existed in prior versions except that it really just sits on top of the existing version but with a paired down level of functionality.

This was also evident in Windows 8/8. 1/10 with the settings app trying to replace the control panel — but when you need to change something that doesn’t exist, for whatever reason, in the settings app, it will just pull up the exact same control panel that existed in Windows 7.

Microsoft needs to learn how to properly port their old functionality to the new interface so that the OS doesn’t seem like a hodgepodge of all previous windows versions since Vista.

I have used Microsoft Windows 11 of some sort for more than 15 years and have never been let down. It makes sense to me that if something works, don’t change it. I currently run this on all my PCs and tablets.

It’s easy to install by following the prompts and then easy to adjust any settings (scan schedules, protection for email, etc. ). Updates are automatic and frequent without interrupting any work on my PCs.

Overall, do the homework and see for yourself how reliable Microsoft Windows 11 is compared to other AV software and you will probably come right back to this. The price from softwarehubs is much better than big box and even the Microsoft website.

The digital download makes it easy to install and run without keeping up with an activation number (after setting up and account of course). I high;y recommend this to all home or business users.

My Windows 10 Home license hit a dead end. The only road left for my 8 year old All-In-One desktop capabilities is Windows 10 Pro. This is a genuine license which is what I wanted thus its price. Everything is about as straight forward as it gets.

Installed without a hiccup. The whole process took about 20 min to complete. Havent really notices any real significant difference from Windows Home. Just glad to have windows back running on my PC.

I reinstalled Windows 10 on a computer that died, after I replaced the processor. During the activation process my Windows account recognized that I had a good license and automatically activated the installation.

I had just purchased a new license, so now I have an extra one. Kudos to Windows/MS for help with activation. I hope the extra license will stay valid for a long time so I can use it in the future.

I have to upgrade the new laptops to pro and it is $199 if you buy from MS, $99 if you go through the MS store but the issue with that is you have to have an account via MS and the upgrade is tied only to the account and not the device.

I got burned one too many times using the MS app store so I discovered B&H had them here for the same price and it is done through the computer instead, much better option for me if I have to restore the computer, I don’t lose the $99.

I will buy this way unless MS fixes that.

Very pleased. Needed this as my hard drive had started to fail. I could not read the code on the bottom of the laptop. It was like being rescued. I rate Windows 7 as the very best. It runs most of the hardware that I have purchased.

Win 8 seemed like a failure, taking on more the appearance of a tablet or phone rather than a PC. The later version of Win 10 is definitely better, but it does not support the gadgets I still like to use.

Win 7 is like a more perfected version of XP and I prefer to use it, even though Microsoft no longer gives support or updates.

Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit is the best version of Windows ever! The great looks of Vista with 64 bit architecture. Win 7 Pro and Home 64 bit have been the mainstay of gamers since 2010. Rock solid and stable.

Unfortunately it’s about to be ditched by Microsoft. They plan to stop supporting it in 2020. The replacement OS Windows 10 (BTW where’s windows 9?) tries to do too much. The boxy look is annoying, it’s like moving from a masterpiece painting to crayons in terms of esthetics.

And honestly who needs touch screen on most desktops and even laptops for that matter? Unlike Apple, Microsoft doesn’t produce devices. Well the Microsoft smart phone was a stab at it, anyone seen them lately? Anyway Apple makes software for Desktops & Laptops, and software for mobile devices.

Two different requirements, two separate types of software. Microsoft tried to do too much with Windows 10. We don’t need touch screen on our Desktops. Gamers have their own user interface thank you very much! So this do-all OS looks childish and hideous.

I’d switch to Win 10 if I had the option of making it look and operate exactly like Windows 7.

and saves a lot of time! The past few months I’ve been upgrading my business PC’s and laptops to 64 bit technology and Solid-state hard drives. Each machine needed a clean install of Windows 7 to accommodate the Solid state drives’ 4K architecture.

The first install I used my “old” Windows 7 disk, purchased in 2010. The install went well, but the updates took forever, going on for several days every time I booted the machine, even with the fast internet we have.

So for less than $40, I bought one of these perfectly legal Windows 7 disks (with service pack 1), installed it and updates were over in about one day. Activation was simple over the phone and it has worked flawlessly since.

Be forewarned that the activation code is only good for one machine- if used on another PC or laptop it will crash and invalidate both machines! The is stated very clearly in the documentation, so be careful.

For the time alone this has saved me, it has been a great purchase. So far, I have upgraded two of my machines (purchased two of these disks) and have one more to upgrade. Well worth the $40!.

The new Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 32/64 Full Version on USB Drive, was delivered just as described. The installation from the USB version went smoothly over my 5 year old Windows 7, however, before installing I bought a new drive and cloned the old drive.

The biggest surprise I found with the USB Drive version is that the USB Drive is a key, and it must remain in the USB port every time you restart the computer. If you remove it altogether, Windows will not restart.

If you installed it from a front mounted USB 3. 0 port, that key must remain in that port everytime you want to boot up windows. However, as I installed it over Windows 7, my Windows 7 is still available, as they greated a boot menu allowing me to boot up Windows 7 or use Windows 10.

As my original PC from 2016, it came from Dell and had installed Fast Access Facial recognition software. Norton Utilities described that program as a high risk program, that should be removed. Maybe it was defective.

I had disabled it on Windows 7, after a hospitalization when I was not recognizable by the software. The Fast Access facial recognition software was easy to remove from the PC. All the fears I had head about Windows 10 turn out to be unfouned, and I am happy with the newly installed product.

Thank you.

Win 10 is what it is: the newest version of Windows, the de facto operating system for the most of the world. The problem was the PACKAGING! The USB stick is junk. It is a rectangular tube of aluminum.

that does NOT fit easily in the USB port, as its walls are thicker than the normal steel end USB stick that is much thinner, and which slides in easily. I bought two of them, BOTH of them were difficult to insert, both of the errored out consistantly.

One never booted, and the other errored with ‘PROGRAM NOT FOUND = WINLOAD’. I had to dowload the WIndows ISO from the Microsoft site and make my own USB stick to do the install. THEY booted and installed faultlessly.

The only thing I got from this kit was a valid product code. These were bought for brand new, out of the box, custom, built gaming computers costing $1800 each. I tried these USB sticks in my old (20015 – 2018) computers with the same no boot result.

Excellent customer service, thank you so much. My laptop did the “Windows 11” download – unfortunately I only use the laptop for my embroidery files and hadn’t used it for over a month. Could not do anything to get it to work correctly and hated Windows 11.

Found this site through numerous google searches. This “Windows 10” system fixed the problem. Excellent instructions. Just need to be patient but I am truly a happy camper again. Thank you again!!!.

Some things are consistent with me when it comes to Microsoft Windows 10. For example, I always find Windows 10 to be just infuriating and frustrating because it is difficult to use, it is not intuitive, and there is always a problem.

It is also unstable. It takes a full day just to set up your computer using Windows 10 loading drivers and such. On top of all that Windows 10 uses a lot of telemetry to monitor what you do with the product.

They have no respect for privacy despite their claims. None. Using Windows 10 takes all fun out of computing. So sick of this garbage from Microsoft. I say this from the perspective of an IT person with over 30 years experience.

(And no, Windows 11 is not any better but rather compounds and builds on the problems with 10 but that is a separate review. ). Buy this product only if you absolutely must. Recommend you look at macOS or even Linux instead.

Those are far superior products than Windows 10.

I do not like Windows 10, but since most modern programs require either Windows, Mac, or SOMETIMES Linux, I feel forced into using Win10. I much prefer Win7, as it feels like the most straightforward Windows OS WITHOUT restricting user freedom, forcing bloatware, and demanding access to every aspect of your PC.

Win10 treats your computer like it’s the property of Microsoft first, then the user second, as if the user will break their PC if OS restrictions and obscure menus aren’t in the way of allowing the user to change what they want.

I don’t care for Microsoft account integration into every aspect of using the PC I built. Overall, Win10 feels like the most overly-accessible option for the average user, but for those who desire more software freedom and customization, I’d look into either Linux or an older version of Windows if you feel comfortable maintaining your PC’s security.

Digital product delivery was great from Best Buy! While I was not a fan of Win 10 at its rollout it has since grown on me. The interface is fully customizable as well as the start menu. I don’t use or like too many bells and whistles, I like a clean and uncluttered interface so the options to customize the start menu and remove clutter are very welcome.

Personalization options are always a huge plus too! I would recommend customizing the widgets/notification settings as soon as you can so you aren’t getting bombarded with news and fluff that aren’t useful or wanted.

This OS does seem to learn and tailor itself to you without feeling too invasive.

Early 2011 13 inch MacBook Pro macOS Sierra 10. 12. 6 2 TB SSD 16 GB RAM (high ram is highly recommended, as this uses a lot of RAM (on a Mac using Parallels 13)) Internal disc drive Installed onto Parallels 13 Windows 7 Ultimate (did not include Service Pack 1 which further confirmed its being a completely brand new copy) This DVD-ROM media of Windows 7 Ultimate was easy to install as a virtual machine on my copy of Parallels 13 on my early 2011 13 inch MacBook Pro running 10.

12. 6 macOS Sierra (High Sierra is not recommended *yet* for installing Parallels 13). Completely genuine brand new copy. Both 32 & 64 bit discs were included. Disc installed Windows much faster than USB media of the same software would have installed.

Something like 30 minutes! Really quick for a brand new install (I had no copy of Windows installed previous to this). Do keep in mind that my Mac has a disc drive, and all modern Retina MacBook Pros (and newer) do *not* have onboard disc drives.

If you want to install this onto a newer Mac as mentioned, you would need a SuperDrive USB disc drive (or other compatible USB disc drive) to install said media. I’m going to access Windows Update on Ultimate to download and install Service Pack 1 update (a lot of software requires Service Pack 1 to be installed).

I confidently expect update to go swimmingly. — I will include this disclaimer: be careful about buying cheap copies of Windows 7 Ultimate at prices that seem too good to be true. Remember that this software used to cost well above $200.

This software is valuable even if you only think about how few of these brand new completely genuine copies are likely available on the market (we are almost in 2018 now). This software, notably, is still currently supported by Microsoft.

Je recommande ce commerçant les yeux fermés. J’ai acheté deux windows 10 avec une seule clef bootable. Tout s’est bien déroulé hormis que la clef bootable ne fonctionne pas sur le système OS. Dommage car c’était pour cela que j’avais pris la clef.

Cela dit, il faut contacter Apple qui vous envoie vers un lien à télécharger et le tour est joué. Bref. je n’ai donc eu besoin que de la clef numérique. En ce qui concerne une réactivation de windows sur un PC avec le système windows.

Vous aurez besoin simplement de la clef. Les emails de ce commerçant sont très claires et donc vous vous débrouillerez facilement. Ce commerçant m’a également sauvé une réunion car je l’ai sollicité un jour férié et il a pris le temps de me répondre ce qui m’a fait gagné un temps fou.

Alors Je recommanderai toujours mes logiciels chez lui. C’est un commerçant sûr et le service client est vraiment au top ! Merci merci merci !.

L’annonce proposait un logiciel sur clef USB. Un logiciel téléchargeable pour un ordi dont l’assemblage était terminé, mais qui ne pouvait pas fonctionner sans le logiciel, donc ne pouvait pas télécharger.

d’où le choix de la clef USB. Logiciel finalement téléchargé sur un autre ordi, transféré sur une clef USB, clef USB transportée sur les lieux de l’ordi attendant le logiciel. Quelle galère ! !.

Sur mon ordinateur de bureau Après 3 essais de téléchargement de Windows 10 sur le site de Microsoft, la mise à jour du logiciel n’a jamais abouti. La clé d’activation n’a jamais été demandée ; les deux premières phases du téléchargement se sont déroulées sans problème (Téléchargement de Windows 10 puis Création de Média.

) Puis « Recherche de mises à jour » tournait dans le vide et au bout de 2 heures et demie de recherche, j’ai interrompu le processus. Sur mon ordinateur portable Tout s’est parfaitement déroulé jusqu’au redémarrage de finalisation.
