Windows 10 or Windows 7?

[Made In Canada]

Which one do i buy for my first gaming pc?

 

If it helps, i plan to rely on windows defender as one of my protecters as well as malwarebytes, and would really rather prefer one that does not get curropt and deleted files often or however that issue went.

 

I do like the look of Windows 7 more but i could live with Windows 10 if its worth it.

I would personally recommend Windows 7, just because it has less bugs.

7 is a bit better than 10 imo. Seeing as how i've upgraded from 7 to 10, I kinda regret it. Not as much customization, more bugs, and the UI is just slow sometimes(might be my computer). Go with 7, it has all of the optimizations done already and compatibility is much easier.

What about for modern games and future ones? Example is Fallout 4, will it run on windows 7?

 

Another thing, which one has better online surfing protection/ windows defender?

 

And can Windows 7 run chrome?

I'd wait on 10, also you can always upgrade 7 to 10 anytime before July if you want, so 7 is my vote

Yes (fallout I'm playing it), if the game in the future isn't dx12 exclusive yes

7 (security essentials)

Yes

 

To add to windows 7 pros in my previous comment it is cheaper

Windows ME can run chrome lol. Windows 7 isn't that old, so don't worry.

1. Pretty much all modern games are compatible for 7 and future games will be compatible for at least another year or two.

2. I don't actually know, mainly because I never needed windows defender for 7, but it works just fine on 10.

3. Yes

Thank You Everyone!

Don't over think it...

1. Buy Windows 7, and you get Windows 10 free (u can upgrade to 10, then reinstall 7)

2. Windows 7 can be found for WAY cheaper

So yeah there is 0 reason to buy win 10

Your assumptions are correct, it is not better than the others unless you have a tablet, aka ignore 8.1

Fallout 4 should run on Windows 7, and Chrome does too. Not sure about the surfing protection/windows defender, they are both Windows so they are both vulnerable.

Any idea of what i can do to protect my pc? Or will once a day malwarebytes scans be fine?

Using malwarebytes is fine, although you should probably run another antivirus alongside it. I mostly use Linux so I don't know what AV is good for Windows, but I've noticed that a lot of viruses come from ads so maybe using adblock would help too.
