There are a few running systems for PCs available, and probably more than you are aware of, but the main two that have become staples are Windows and Apple. With this in mind, you are probably trying to choose between getting a laptop that runs Windows or opting for something from the Mac collection.
This piece is going to talk through why you should get a Windows system-based computer over a Mac and the benefits you can get from doing so.
Let’s get into it.
Ease
Perhaps one of the reasons that people turn to a laptop that supports a Windows operating system over a Mac is because of how uncomplicated they are.
While Mac and Apple products are designed to work synonymously with each other, and some would say with each other only, Windows based computers have a much more open interface and are extremely versatile. They can work in harmony with many other products that run on Windows and other operating systems, whereas Macs can be a little more fussy.
Design
There are so many Windows based computers to choose from that you should not have a hard time finding something that looks the part. There are some big-name brands out there, all of which use Windows as an operating system. Higher end models are now starting to model themselves on the iconic look of the MacBook, which means you do not have to pay extra if you are into that lightweight, sleek design that Apple does so well.
Performance
Windows system based computers are sometimes seen as the lesser of choices when it comes to performance against Mac, but that could not be further from the truth. Yes, Apple Macintosh computers do have benefits, such as not needing a noisy fan for an internal cooling system, and Apple products offer an impressive ecosystem – however, Windows laptops work just as hard and offer a crucial flexibility that means they do not have to rely on their own ecosystem. Many high end options also have some impressive graphics such as Intel® Arc™ and processors that can give you power to rival competitors.
Gaming
If you are an avid gamer, then there is no question as to whether a Windows system based computer is the right move for you. It is – no questions asked. While MacBooks can handle some level of gaming, Windows based computers have been designed specifically to offer the ultimate gaming experience. You also have the option of custom building a Windows based computer, which is not an option you have with Mac products at all.
Customization
Windows based laptops are the best for customization; if not by default, Apple does not allow any at all. With a Windows based computer, you can work your way right up from the bottom to create your ideal setup, which gives you a lot more leeway in making something that will suit all of your needs.
