The operating system that suits gaming and everyday tasks best depends on your needs. Some reports suggest 8.1 can run smoother during idle time, but overall performance varies by hardware and usage patterns.

For an SSD, go with version 8.1. Without one and having a typical PC, the choice comes down to your preference for Metro UI.

From my own use, Windows 8.1 runs quicker and feels more fluid.

Windows 10 is arriving soon, and no matter your choice, you'll only have it for a short time. Even though I didn’t expect to love Windows 8.1 after years with 7, I really enjoy it.

Running Windows 8.1 but receiving version 10 will likely offer improved performance compared to both versions.
