It’s one of those questions that always linger on the minds of our fellow PC games so it’s only natural that we’ll try to answer this as best as we can.
Based on the numbers we can see clearly that the most poplar platform is Windows with more than 99% of gamers using it. But here’s the hard part. Which version of Windows should you be using to get the best bang out of your buck.
At the moment, the majority of gamers use Windows 7 to play games followed closely by Windows 8. I was surprised to find that a large number of gamers still use Windows XP, more than the ones using Windows Vista.
That being said I should point out that for the past couple of years there’s been an increase in Linux and Mac gamers but even so there are less than 1% gamers using Linux and Mac operating systems.
Is our opinion that at the moment, the best Operating system to run games is Windows 7, the only reason why Windows 8 is so close to Windows 7 is because is Win 8 is bundled with most PC computers you buy right now.
