Any graphic designer here uses windows 8 ? Thinking of going windows 8 this month wanna know if it worth it. Or any problems
It runs very smooth and uses memory very well, I have no problems with it. Just make sure that you have an up to date video card.
I’m running a Quad core with !6 Gigs of ram.
Very good and and everything works fine, but one thing, i dont like boot time, it takes 1-2 minutes after Windows update running.
I´m using it, too, and didnt have any problem with it. Having no startmenu needs getting used to but there are also add-ons to bring back the old startmenu.

I am using windows 8 since beta and I am very happy with it no problems at all the apps and games work perfectly.
Been having nothing but problems with windows 8 since I upgraded. Everytime I look things up I find hundreds of users having the same issues with drivers and things like that. Going to be switching back to windows 7 until they get all the bugs worked out.
I work on win 7 and as long as is stable on my machine and latest adobe software do not need win 8 I do not upgrade it. Hate wasting time with software / drivers related problems.

You should never do an upgrade. Always do a clean install, hings usually go smooth after that.
