Hey there,
Im currently in the process of gettin parts to build my new gaming pc, however i cannout decide wich OS to use, Windows 7 or Xp?
I was intending on using 7 as it is latest but will it run my xp games?
Or i could use xp but wont the latest games that come out be on windows 7 not xp so i wont be able to play future titles?
also is there any real difference between the version-eg home, professional, ultimate etc, and whaats best 32 bit or 64 bit?
any help would be much appreciated
thanks
