    Hi there, I've had my laptop (see title for model) for almost a year now and I usually use it for gaming. I know it's not specifically designed to do so because it's more of a variant for entertainment and video editing. However, that's not my biggest concern, because I'm about to have a graphic designing job in a few weeks. So my actual question is which Operating System best fits to my needs(graphics work and a little gaming)? I've asked opinions from many other geeks and they've given me varying answers. My laptop specs are as follows, if it helps:

    Processor: corei7 3632QM 2.2GHz
    RAM: ddr3 16GB
    HDD: 1TB
    GPU: AMD Radeon HD7670M
    Display: 15.6" 1366x768 touch panel

    The main thing is the quality of the graphic card, and a 64bit operating system.

    64bits will allow it to use the full amount of ram.


    You may find that a ssd drive will also provide more overall performance.


    If you can not afford a ssd drive then a hdd drive will also improve things.

    Note :

    You may well be restricted on which operating system you choose

    by your graphics card drivers.
