Today we’re having a look at the three latest Windows versions and we’re doing so with our gaming goggles on. We will basically be showing you which operating system is giving you the highest frame rates when playing recent games. To do so we’ve used the same set of benchmarks we’re testing graphics cards with. What you should be aware of is that the version of Windows 10 we've been testing is a technical preview. As soon as the final version is available we will write up another article like this and walk you through possible improvements
