>everyone's excited
>news comes out that there isn't going to be driver support for versions of Windows older than Windows 10, just like Intel's Skylake processors
>have to upgrade to Windows 10 to use your new graphics card
It's going to be like this Sup Forums, isn't it.

>only play csgo and emulators
>have no need for anything higher than a 750ti
feels good
Cooper Watson
>Falling for the winmeme
Charles Mitchell
>no support for older versions of Windows while even the most irrelevant operating systems like Linux are supported
no
Juan Young
>not realizing that once they've got everyone on win10, they can gradually drop legacy support and move forward without being weighed down by the past
you guys bitch about what a clusterfuck ms code is, and that nt sucks but then you're not happy when ms puts things on track to end legacy support and be able to finally move beyond nt
I don't understand you guys
Jordan Ortiz
i have a 750 ti i play csgo only on low res with all low settings and i barely get 150 fps
i dont think its enough
Jace Bell
What are you talking about I'm on Freebsd with a gtx 1080 right now.
Luke Fisher
>Sup Forums is one person
Nolan Reed
yep, and that person is me, how's it feel to know you're just a voice in my head?
David Rogers
>once they drop legacy support they can drop legacy support
wow enticing
Brandon Myers
That's what Intel did with their Skylake processors. They still support Linux but they dropped support for versions of Windows older than Windows 10.
Ayden Carter
once they drop legacy support they can write an os that can actually take full advantage of current gen hardware,
how's that for enticing?
Levi Kelly
Great, because I am the voice that controls you.
Grayson Cooper
Complete waste GPU power isn't it?
Austin Watson
well take a look around us cheif, you're doing a shit job, step it up
Jason Williams
*shocking*
My 8600GT used to get 45 fps on CSS and I still managed.
Logan Mitchell
>gpus are only for videogames
Alexander Long
nah being able to shitpost and piss off poorfags like you it worth it. also what said but I do play games in wine.
Grayson Hernandez
>implying that gpus aren't MOSTLY used for vidya
Gabriel Williams
>and i barely get 150 fps
>i dont think its enough
Do you have a 240hz monitor or something?
Grayson Torres
vague and meaningless
Cooper Clark
I had to update my Linux kernel in order to get my new Skylake laptop working.... When all you need is a new kernel, Linux makes the concept of OS version update incompatibility seem silly.
Owen Flores
ok how about an os with true multi core support
Alexander Hughes
still vague and meaningless. why don't you try explaining what performance gains are impossible without single core compatability and why in detail instead of spouting buzzwords like a lazy salesman.
Easton Perez
>pleas spoonfeed me
sorry bruh but if you can't see/be assed to research the advantages of not being tied to legacy support and being able to do prety much whatever the fuck you want with a fresh from scratch kinda windows then I can't help you
Anthony Cooper
well if it's so easy to look up why don't you post some pal :) because I sure cannot find anything.
Ian Martin
>i was talking shit the whole time
what a surprise
you last (You), enjoy it
Jackson Johnson
Not supported yet

whatevs bruh

There's no technical reason 10 drivers won't work on 7, just mod them to skip the checks or accept 7 SP2.
Christopher Fisher

That's an outdated version this has been supported since before the card was released.

dumb faggot

Low settings csgo is CPU oriented and less GPU.
Oliver White
I'm just waiting for a complete rebuild of Windows.
Most GPUs are for vidya. GPUs are not mostly for vidya. Learn the difference, it'll save your life.
Chase Smith
>i-it's not my place to educate you????? CHECK YOUR PRIVILEGE??????????
Carson Russell
10 is just as shit as any other Windows version
Dominic Rivera
>check your privilege
um fuck no, I'mma enjoy my privilege since that's kinda the purpose of having it
Dominic Reyes
Was just about to post this, the GTX 10 series still offers Windows 7 support and AMD will probably do the same. Fuck Intel.

CSGO is odd in that you need quite a bit more than 60fps to actually make it seem smooth on a 60Hz monitor.
Playing CSGO at 60fps on a 60Hz monitor looks awfully choppy.
Oliver King
Remember when people hated XP for years until they didn't?
Probably not, because you idiots are underage.
Asher Rivera
>j-just mod them
Yeah while you're at it why don't you mod your GT 610 into a GTX 1080
Cameron Perry
Except XP offered features that you got used to and started liking more. Windows 10 offers botnet and data mining that no one other than the severely mentally handicapped will like more.
Angel Bailey
People hate Windows 10 because it's extremely invasive to your privacy compared to previous versions.
Elijah Bennett
How it is?
James Myers
>>>>>>>implying
yea right kid, they're so fucking shit they have to use linux as their router OS because bing causes too much data traffic and windows can't fucking handle it.
Asher Edwards
of course they're shit, they're still tied to legacy support, then entire point is to end that
Chase Powell
holy crap this is great
got any sauce?

there used to be assloads of posts and articles about it in september when they announced it

Shit, it was 18 months after the release before they were going to stop supporting versions of Windows other than 10, not right on release:

Aaron Sanders
Its the Kaby lake line that wont oficially support W7 so if there is problems with it they wont fix them.
It will still support Windows 8.1.
