After weeks of planning and reading reviews I'm ready to purchase my first gaming computer in over five years. I don't want to buy Windows Vista to have to upgrade to Windows 7 shortly. Can I install the windows 7 beta release client (without another OS already installed) and expect it to preform well with games until I purchase the full version in October?

I have had no problems with any games with windows 7. You may have trouble on some really old games, but I don't have any issues with more recent games.

The oldest game I have played on my computer is Warcraft 3, and it runs great. You can check up on specific games using Google to see if there will be any issues.
