So as everyone knows, windows7 came out yesterday and I'm thinking about buying the pro 64bit version (only because I'm a student and can get it for $30 + $13 for CD).
Is this a good or bad idea? I've been using XP32 forever and think it's time to step up to 64bit, might as well be with the new OS. My only concern is finding drivers for my hardware and being able to properly run games/programs (like Aion, CoD, etc)
Current setup:
q6600, 4GB ddr2-800, nvidia GTX260
Anyone play with release yet? How's it going? What will I need to do for 64bit + DX11? I'm just trying to figure out if it'll really be worth it. Will I notice a performance increase from jumping to 64bit?
I've been using only XP32 for the past...8 years? So I'm kinda clueless about DX10/11, 64bit, etc etc.
Thank you in advance.
