lateralustool Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I am buying new workstation and don't know which OS pick. Windows 7 Professional or Windows 8.1 Pro (since it is dual xeon machine)? The cost is the same. I heard that windows 8 with it's new interface is more demanding for GPU.

Zdravko Barisic Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I would pick up Win7. Just my 2cc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonstewart Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 8.1 is supposed to be less of a RAM hog. I would go 8.1 myself, put classic shell on and it is just like 7 for every day use, some settings are still in strange places though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
