Building my first computer soon and I'm in a pickle- Do I install Windows 7 or Windows 10?
I love Win7 and refused to upgrade it to Win10 on my current shitty computer, but now that I will be building one, I'm troubled with deciding if I should stick to what I know, or go with Win10 on the off-chance of better performance.
i love windows 10 and windows 7. go for 10 for a newer feel id say. im just a consumer so i wouldn't necessarily know all of the techy stuff behind it but both i can assure are reliable for my enjoyment and i do a wide variety of things.

but your name is mehedi..

>windows kek
Jose Nelson
if you like spyware
Henry Kelly
>hurr ill never upgrade xDDDD just fucking get windows 10 jesus christ already
Ayden Davis
7
Cooper Perry
Windows 10 is more idiot proof.
If you fuck it up, you can just "refresh" it.
Asher Kelly
I've heard mixed opinions. Some people have no trouble with it, others have a whole HDD go to shit because of it.
I don't necessarily care for the newer feel, just care if it will perform better on my computer.
kek'd
Sorry, I don't want my computer looking like an Android phone :/
See? fuck
Okay, but why? What makes Win10 better? You're not really providing a great argument, just getting buttblasted because I'm undecided.
What makes you prefer it?
Lincoln Foster
Windows 10 for Dx12
Ryder Ramirez
Just torrent that hacked off version of win 10 that has all of its spyware programs, drivers and botnets removed.
It works like a fucking charm and has zero downsides. It has cortana, location tracking, and many other things removed from it to make it safer and lighter.
Ian Wright
Fair point.
I can't remember the last time I downloaded a torrent and idk if my current shit computer can manage it, but I'll look into that. Thank you.
Do you have any first hand experience with that version of Win10?
Brody Sullivan
>I can't remember the last time I downloaded a torrent and idk if my current shit computer can manage it, but I'll look into that.
Lower end computers won't handle windows 10 very well so it's better to stick to 7 there.
The version works. It works really well and is even less bothersome than the usual windows 10. If you don't regret missing out on a retarded android voice asking you what kind of vore hentai you like, having friends or family clearly see what you've been searching on google the moment they use your PC or some dude in Alaska fapping to your face while monitoring your webcam feed for possible threats then you'll be fine. You can also tweak it with a lot less hassle than usual.
Colton Walker
Only people who have illegal shit on their computer are scared to upgrade. HUR I'M ANONYMUS FUK MICROSOFT I DUN WAN DEM TO FIND MY CP AND ILLEGAL STUFF HALP.
Benjamin Rodriguez
I meant I wasn't sure if my current computer could handle downloading a torrent.
>some dude in Alaska fapping to your face while monitoring your webcam feed
Yeah.. I unplugged my webcam a long time ago after seeing all the websites with unprotected webcam feeds. I had it pointing up to the ceiling most of the time anyway.
Julian Adams
I don't have anything "illegal" aside from music I downloaded. That's not my concern.
What bothers me about Win10 is all the "Look I remembered what you searched so let me do a shortcut for you", I don't need a computer to think everything for me, that would just make me lazy and allow for alzheimer's to get an early start. Also the ugly tiles and unnecessary bullshit is annoying. I know, you can turn it off, but it wasn't necessary in the first place.
Blake Davis
Newer OS are always bigger and heavier. They was HDD space and chew up RAM. They never run better they always run worse. The only reason to upgrade is if there is software you need that isn't backwards compatible.

fuck pc, MACINTOSH MASTER RACE.

If my girlfriend wasn't sleeping I'd think she was shitposting in this thread
Hudson Turner
Windows 7. But if you wanna be really cool then debian
Ryan Sanders
>upgrade to windows 10 >play Skyrim >frames low as fuck >find out 10 isn't able to use more than 4gb vram including allocated system ram
Should i downgrade again?
Joseph Morgan
the fuck m8
Jacob Watson
Windows 10 has been working fine for me, but I'd recommend getting an app called Start 8, which will restore the Windows 7 style start menu. The Win 8/10 version is just a confusing mess.
Caleb Hughes
I'm surprised this thread hasn't been overrun by Linux fags yet.
Henry Anderson
It's not even 9 AM EST
all the Linux fags sleep in until 12 PM
Noah Russell
Get 7 OP
cringe
Christopher Long
Win7 if you don't want a bloated spyware machine.
Evan Anderson
Windows 10 for any computer that will never connect to the internet. Otherwise 7 is your baby.
Wyatt Rivera
doesn't sound like OP is ready for linux yet
Austin Brown
Where did you download that version of windows10 ??
William Carter
install gentoo
Bentley King
Where can I find it
Asher Jenkins
OP here
quad dubs got me BTFO
I don't think I am ready either.
Owen Harris
people bitching about microshit spying on you with win 10 when ms spies on every os they made, smh fam, just by using google chrome and google's respective services you're being spied on
Jeremiah Hughes
Where i can find the version of win10 without spyware tell me pls
Ethan Powell
>find out 10 isn't able to use more than 4gb vram including allocated system ram Maybe you should upgrade to 64-bit Windows 10 then? Fucking idiot.
Luis James
it's Start10 for windows 10. I use it and, you're right, it should be recommended
>implying anyone with two bits of common sense uses Google Chrome
Kayden Long
How do you know spyware is removed
Bentley Kelly
I use google chrome on android is there any good browser
Jackson Morgan
how do you know the user who told you about removed spyware wasnt lying?
you asked for a *clean* w10, i provided a torrent from one of he most trusted uploaders for software, if it's truly clean who the fuck knows ask them or check their website
Asher Edwards
Firefox
I use an iPhone and use Firefox for most of my browsing. Only use Safari to post on here because captcha doesn't seem to work on Firefox mobile
Hudson Perry
try opera
Alexander Butler
Isn't opera based on chrome
William Cook
I had windows 7, i was fine with it, it was great. I now have windows 10 becouse i wanted the newest direct x, witch is direct x 13. only avaible if you have windows 10. With my gig of 2200 euro. i decided to gett windows 10. well it sucks.you have mallware in your startmenu, everything is diverent, so you need to learn everytying where is what.you have no more privecy they collect every data picture you watch ect. but if you gonna spend a lot of money on a new pc its worth it.
Henry Mitchell
What's wrong with your spelling
Lincoln Watson
Just install Linux and tell microsoft to fuck off. =D
I don't know why so many people complain about win10 tbh, it's no worse than 7. If you like windows in general, you'll like 10.
Noah Jenkins
i had windows 7 and i upgraded to windows 10 last day of free upgrade.turns out windows 10 is great and it runs all my old games (heroes of might and magic 3 &4,diablo II,etc) in the start i thought it was like windows 8 and i avoided it but it turns out its fine.
Jordan Martinez
Fuck you
Asher Roberts
I see no reason to not get 10 instead of 7. 10 got more features, is way faster, is easier to use, and all in all just better.
Jayden Wright
his shit's all retarded
Andrew Wright
>Should I install the latest version of this operating system on my brand new hardware that contains the latest features and fixes, or the older version that will eventually not be supported?
Ryan Campbell
Key word: eventually
They're not fucking shutting down all support for Win7 within the next hour
Jayden Carter
The issue with win10 is mainly some shitty driver support and random problems on some non MS devices. But the design of the OS is better than win7 and 8
Caleb Wright
>I personally hated windows 8 myself. >I always swore I'd never leave win7
>Win10 on sale at Xidax. >My PC boots in less than 3 seconds with Win10
No regrets.
Grayson Price
Ah then by all means, keep using Windows 7 ignoring the fact that all development is being done on Windows 10 and only critical security issues will be ported to 7 until support ends
Asher Peterson
Thats not your gf
Kayden Morris
I recommend avoiding Windows 10 until at least Windows 7 support has ended.
There's all kinds of problems (compability issues) with Win 10. Many don't have them, many do.
Then there's the privacy issue. Personally I'll wait until more has come to light on that issue, I don't want random files to be uploaded to Microsoft from my HDD.
You don't have to feel stressed over the "limited free win 10" offer, it will be free to obrain forever I can guarantee it.
Isaac Lopez
>mint kek
Gavin Cruz
>I see no reason to not get 10 instead of 7. Wouldn't saying "no reason to get 7 instead of 10" have been much clearer?
Eli Sanders
It's already over, it'd no longer free
Noah Nguyen
People love double negatives
Yeah, it ended July 29th, but you can still get it for free if you claim to be disabled
