So far WIndows 8 has been really easy to get the hang of, not really understanding the complaints with it to be honest.
I can feel the fans on it running, and they are quite as all hell.
Both in terms of size and power this thing is a monster compared to my last one, and I love it.
After my file transfers finish, I load on steam, and give New Vegas a run, see how nice it's going to go for me!
Talk about your PC's!
