Alexander. Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Windows or Linux, tell me what operating system do you currently have installed? I have been using Windows for nearly a decade now and without question, it's better for gaming. Windows has a wide variety of high end games and Linux doesn't. Vote in the Poll and let's see which operating system gets the most votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UleTheVee Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Everyone who plays video games and has a degree of common sense because they are not masochists will always have Windows installed. I don't even know where this question is coming from to be honest as Linux is a platform focused on programming. Cleopatra92 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoyFreak Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I voted windows simply because I have been using this OS since I got my hands on one and I cannot see myself using anything else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I have used Linux but honestly I keep coming back to Windows. Not just because of the gaming but most of the software work out of the blue on Mac and Windows. Something which is harder to work on the Linux. I'd say if you are serious about gaming then better stick with console and Windows. Because you never know what software you may need. Linux seems to be lacking on that.

killamch89 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Linux has nowhere near the same level of integration and features as Windows and isn't a stable gaming platform. As @UleTheVee mentioned Linux shines at programming and nothing else. Until the developers can get their platform to rival the functionality and integration of Windows and to an extent a Mac, then Windows will always be the go-to choice for PC gaming.

skyfire Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Most of the games that I have purchased does not support Linux. I have mostly purchased those as box versions. I do know that there are some of the options for linux games in the Steam and the Humble bundle. But I don't own a lot of humble bundle games and also the steam shops version of games I own are for Windows version only. So that kind of limits me with gaming on Windows alone.

skyfire Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Windows is easy and also worth using if you don't mind worrying about all the minute stuff. But for casual work windows just works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Why not both use windows as a host and Linux in a VM. If you game use windows yes gaming is slowly coming Linux but it's no where close to windows support. Me.. I use Windows 11 anyway and been using it for years and years since the start, What options if you need to use programs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I think eventually Linux outgrows the VM. The use case for Linux is getting so strong as it uses less background resources compared to Windows. So it has a potential to make your system better.

Justin11 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I prefer any one provided it brings quality gaming and other amazing features. Unfortunately for me, I can't afford either Linus or windows, I am going for cheaper laptop via Lenovo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are the questions you should ask when getting your next PC to ensure you get value for money spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the price is quite affordable for me as brand new, around $280. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will also want to add that when you notice that people that used that particular brand gave good reviews, then that is a good sign to make your orders from there.

Yeah, I'm still learning about the PC, at this moment their is no negative found around the Lenovo laptop. I'll go for it, when I am completely satisfied sooner.
