    i have heard a lot of talk about the vista gaming editions and how they drastically improve game performance. what i wish to know is if it is worth the shift from the home premium to this extreme edition, i also thought i might clarify the validity of such rumours about the gaming edition, with the experts here or people who have used the version optimized for gaming.

    There is no vista gaming edition. :laugh: It just doesn't exist.
    What does exist, is Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, and Ultimate.
    Read me.

    I just googled "Vista Gaming Edition" and as it came up you're talking about an unofficial modified pirated version of Vista Ultimate. NBR has zero tolerance when it comes to piracy so every thread even slightly related to it gets closed.

    Thread closed.
