komoter226@yahoo.co.uk 59 Posted July 30, 2012 Windows XP used to be good, but Windows 7 took over. Go for 7. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zenatsu (DayZ) 96 Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Uh, XP is slowly (by slowly i mean the next year) being out-dated.Windows 7 is so far the new kid on the block which is admittingly better than vista. But XP, in terms of system stability and other nerdy stuff, is better.So for gaming strictly, Windows 7If you're a hyper nerd, you shouldn't even be asking this question Edited July 30, 2012 by zenatsu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aftershok 14 Posted July 30, 2012 Windows XP is a solid platform for most games although it is dated, I've used Windows 7 64-bit for a few years and have never had any non-fixable issues, most newer games are easily compatible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
