Windows 7 is out and up for download, provided youâre OK with using a beta operating system. It promises a raft of improvements over Windows Vista, but howâs it shaping up for games?
FiringSquad have taken a look at how it runs across two systems: a mid-spec one (AMD Athlon X2 5000+ Black Edition) and a high-end machine (Intel Core i7 965 Extreme Edition). While the results areworth a look at, itâs worth remembering, remembering then remembering again that Windows 7 is still in beta. So thereâs room for improvement.
Anyway, that caveat out of the way, above are some of the results more relevant to you, the game-playing public.
More detailed break-downs â including Crysis at DirectX 10 â below.
