I didn't like wins 8.1 at first. But once you get used to everything its a great os. Your going to have to upgrade soon.
I that Win 8.1 mouse lag in games thing fixed 100% now? i.e. without having to do anything special after installing windows, or having to make changes per game as I seem to remember to had to do before?
not all is fixed i made a massive post on the microsoft forums about it. some titles are still effected.
for gaming in general win 7 is still better. ive used every version of win8 from upgrad to fresh install 8.0 , 8.1.
I have to disagree. I find games play much smoother on Wins 8.1.Newer games on wins 7 play sluggish

I'm going to upgrade to Windows 8.1 at some point in the next few days and I was wondering if the Steam/Origin/UPlay games I have installed on my mechanical HDD will continue to work once I have installed 8.1 and re-installed Steam etc onto my SSD?
I assume you're upgrading from Windows 7, right?
Then the way to do it is to upgrade to Windows 8 first, then upgrade that to Windows 8.1.

I never had mouse lag issue in win 8 ever. My 8.1 install on my SSD also boots in about 4 seconds lol, crazy speeds. (not including post)
Also, is it best whilst I'm installing 8.1 to disconnect my Ethernet cable? I'm aware that there can sometimes be problems with Windows automatically installing graphics drivers which you don't want.
Windows 8.1 gives me some extra FPS in BF4 so for me it's worth it for that alone.
Never had any issues with any games on 8.1.
there is no benefit in windows 8.0 -8.1 in bf4. thats from the guy who makes frostbite.
