Give me one reason to use Windows 10 over 7

Give me one reason to use Windows 10 over 7

DirectX11+ doesn't count

you're homosexual.

I have none, 7 is superior

Most people in this day and age are, you fucking hetero.

Literally none.

Fight back the W10 shit by using Ryzen/Kaby Lake with W7

Faster boot/shutdown speeds, uses less disk space, memory compression, macos tier sleep/hibernate, no need to use 18gb patches to keep it working, it's for free when you install it with your existing product key

it feels nice

no lts for updates
no new cpu's ayyyyyy
dx11+ does count if ur a gaymer
better system utilities and ..>muh aesthetics


but please, if you dont have the mental capacity to block the botnet stay on wangblows 7, or even better move to loonix seeing as you don;t game

Install Gentoo instead

Windows 10 is such shit

The windows 10 update on my laptop bricked my wifi and now my fucking XPS13 is useless

>Faster boot/shutdown speeds
Get an SSD.
>memory compression
Get more RAM.
>It's for free when you install it with your existing product keys
I don't want shit all over my face even if it is free.
Windows keys are fucking cheap as fuck.

>dx11+ does count if ur a gaymer
Yes, especially with the negative performance it gives you.
>no new cpu's
I just bought a new CPU last gen and that works perfectly fine though...
>better system utilities
They fucking removed the control panel.

>see someone using Windows 7 instead of Windows 10 or GNU/Linux
>automatically label him either as a tech illiterate or an absolute retard

Yep, my rule still works flawlessly, frogposter.

>Get an SSD.
>Get more RAM.
See, y'know, you could just, do both of these and also install Windows 10. Like, the boot speed's always gonna be better, and Win 10 on an SSD is certainly a fast boot.

>DirectX11+ doesn't count
>Better multi monitor support doesn't count
>Better file browser doesn't count
>Better task manager doesn't count
>Faster boot time doesn't count

>Faster boot/shutdown speeds
who fucking cares
>uses less disk space
its the same
>no need to use 18gb patches to keep it working
in 7 you could skip them, you cant do that in 10, and they are still 18gb big
win 7 is also free for every non retarded person

>Faster boot and shutdown
Because it defaults to a glorified hibernate instead of a proper shutdown. Use Hibernate on Windows 7 for literally the same effect.

>Uses less disc space
Objectively false

>Memory compression
RAM is cheap

>sleep / hibernate
You're repeating yourself and you're three points in

>18GB patches
So far every major Windows 10 update has been a COMPLETE IN PLACE REINSTALL.

>It's free
So is Windows 7 if you aren't a retard

>They fucking removed the control panel.
U wot m8

Name 3 worthwhile games that are DX12 only.

Hardmode: no Microsoft games

>better file browser
IT'S THE SAME SHIT WITH "MUH RIBBON" INTERFACE HOW DESPERATE CAN YOU BE

>Better multi monitor support doesn't count
it doesnt for people who dont have multiple monitors aka majority
>Better file browser doesn't count
majority doesnt like rbbon, and thats the only difference between 10 and 7
>Better task manager doesn't count
most people dont even know how to open it
>Faster boot time doesn't count
no it doesnt, normal pople wont realize their system boots up faster by 30 sec

paint 3d?

>Better file browser
>Better task manager

main thing i don't like is the start menu. ended up installing classic shell. much better now

It's the same but better, so that makes it better no? I'm personally quite a fan of quick access layout, the copy dialogue, and a load of other improvements that have been made.

Not utilising the benefits of your operating system and/or not realising those benefits are there in the first place is not an argument against said operating system. If you take advantage of them it's a great system to use.

when you dont use "benefits" of your os but it still forces you to give up on your private data then i consider this a negative, if you dont need 10 then you are at loss for using it

No support in 2020, but it's already losing support in $CURRENT_YEAR. You should have moved on to Linux when the 10 abomination spawned to get a headstart. The only thing I miss is foobar and the alternative isn't even that bad.

I don't see how there is a loss. I've never had any negative effects from using 10.

thats because all botnet processes run in the background dude, thats the point of botnets

Then what's the problem?

the point is that you lost all you private data and literally got nothing in return, you are a cuck, isnt that enough?

No, generally speaking this 'loss of private data' would actually have to have a tangible impact on my life for me to care.

thats good for you, but everyone is as retarded as you

From my perspective it is you who is retarded, since you haven't actually explained to me how the 'botnet' affects my life.

and i wont, because thats not the point

>Faster boot/shutdown speeds
Fake shutdown, it's just undercover hibernation. Also, that shit has a huge potential for fucking things up, a lot of friends have been unable to enter uefi settings due to broken windows install trying to dehibernate.

>uses less disk space
Lmao, no. They keep adding more bloat.

>memory compression
Fucking ramlets, you should have bought at least 8GB of RAM

>macos tier sleep/hibernate
Why not using macOS then?

>no need to use 18gb patches to keep it working
Yeah, I love those 1GB cumulative updates that take ages to download, ages to install, forces you to restart whenever it wants just to be greeted by a nice "Something went wrong" message.

>it's for free when you install it with your existing product key
But it has ads instead, lmao.

Youd be surprised on how many people who arent tech literate actually use 2 screens. I know for a long time ive owned alot of monitors and only recently did i try out a dual monitor setup. Best decision ive made for my pc

Ah, I see, so there is no downside. Excellent, just as I thought.

out-of-date and insecure OS. You're a faggot. Hope your identity gets stolen and used to buy children on human-trafficking sites

if you consider giving all you private data not as a downside then theres none, good for you goy

most people use apple

Install GNU

I don't. I'm happy to give away my data, data mining has been used for a long time in order to make software better and more user friendly.

The option not having to re-install Windows after changing motherboard/certain hardware

Phenom II & Windows 7 Ultimate User for life. I ain't afraid. I have spare mobo/ram/cpu/graphics in case of part failure.

There is no reason unless you want ryzen or that shitty app store that shouldn't exist

Because I still haven't found a Windows 10 Enterprise AU iso

Best post so far, literally all the replies to this post are moot.

10 also has much better multitasking and has the fucking bash shell installed by default.

Windows 7 is decent but it seriously has no meaningful merits out of the box than 10.

This hasn't happened to me since XP Home Edition, why don't you just run Daz or the Toolkit or something? Or... are you actually paying Microsoft for a copy of Windows on your homebuilt pc...?

>muh dx12 negative performance
no pal, thats nvidias shitty drivers
>my cpu works now
Good luck when ms push an update that when you restart bricks your OS. don't even think that wont happen, it will.

also the control panel is still there, learn to windows m8y

improved task manager and resource monitor
i've been using win10 since release and it's the only thing that wasn't in 7 that i think is actually a good new feature
everything else is moving backwards

I can name 20 with dx12 features. that's my point

Netflix above 720p.

Win10 only games like Forza, GoW, Killer Instinct, ReCore, etc.

No more piracy warnings you have to disable every 6 months, as OS is free upgrade.

Is actually an objectively better OS once you disable telemetry and forced updates.

>dx12 features
user you're replying to said DX12 ONLY, aka games that won't run on DX11 or lower.
So name 3 (three) worthwhile games that are DX12 only.

But the opposite is true

Gears 4, ReCore, Forza Horizon 3. There's your 3 worthwhile DX12 only games

shit bait

The biggest reason : I don't want to be a paranoid idiot. No one needs to know who you are, it has something to do with what you are consuming.

>M-muh privacy
You already forfieted it by posting with your ip

>Publisher: Microsoft Studios
>Publisher: Microsoft Studios
>Publisher: Microsoft Studios

I wonder what company might have a vested interest in DX12

>vistaids SP2 vs windaids h8.2
>using microshit windaids at all

Fuck off Sup Forums.

1.2% of the population isn't "most"

You can use BitLocker with a password, instead a smartcard or a USB device...

>once you disable telemetry and forced updates
>implying you can do that

Not even bait. As someone who has studied and implemented data mining solutions, I don't know why Sup Forums is so adverse to it.

>what is ntlite

LOL RTFM

>no dx11

Sure. One is more than enough.
Vastly improved multi-threading effeciency over multi-threaded processors.

W7 your proc gets raped unevenly. W10 your proc gets raped evenly. You don't want to be a ineffecient pimp don't you ?

Also proper nvme by default. If you want an extra service.

>faster boot/shutdown
straight up lie
>uses less disk
non issue in 2017
>memory compression
doesnt mean anything
>macos
stopped here

do you have a licence for it nigger

>thats nvidias shitty drivers
Then how come AMD only gets like a 5% performance gain?

>no new cpu's ayyyyyy

>implying I plan on falling for those memes

DX12 IS the only reason.

>not knowing how to edit registry files

Maybe you deserve to have M$ run your computer for you user.

>microsoft backs up all your stuff for you
:^)

because linux is superior.

>faster boot and shutdown speeds
HA. No

Nigga windows 10 is never bigger than 4gb for installs or updates.

The Windows 10 update bricked the WiFi on MY laptop, too, gosh! And the worst part is I know other people with the same laptop (that shit Asus blue netbook, actually) that were able to update just fine without problems.

Anyway, what I ended up doing was going to the Asus site and grabbing the 8.1 drivers instead and that got it to work. And then I forgot all about it so that when Microsoft then pushed that big update (the one from last year that added "features" such as Candy Crush) it broke the WiFi again!

I'm waiting for this creator's update bullshit to install more bloat and break my WiFi.

> with the same laptop
You know, same laptops may have different SKUs in them.

2 commas. do you even speak english you retard?

>BETTER TASKMANAGER
My fucking sides

simplified view for a simple normie.

because it holds all your most important data on microsoft server ;DDDDDD

its not depreciated old outdated broken pos

But wouldn't the SKU generally refer to things like colors and stuff? Wouldn't the silicon and the rest of the magical bits inside be the same?

>32gb
>in a phenom 2
y?

- Lower memory usage by the OS
- Less CPU overhead
- Less unnecessary paging
- Security updates past 2020
- Security updates past now if you have Kaby Lake or Ryzen (or anything newer)
- Faster DX9 and DX11 performance (weirdly DX10 is slower... but no good DX10 only game exists)
- DX12
- Storage Spaces
- VM recognition
- Faster boot times
- Less power usage on laptops/tablets
- USB input devices are finally recognized immediately like every other OS, not after a 30sec to 2minue wait for a USB keyboard to be 'installed'
- Linux subsystem > Services for Unix

Probably more I can't think of right now too.
I use Debian as my day-to-day OS.

Just as intended, we don't like YOU.

>not using superior windows server
Pleb at the maximum level

yes please! ;;;;;;;;;;;;D

aero a shit

You really should keep your closed-source botnets updated

Can you understand the "server" word or need some help?

Windows 8 has mac os tier wake and sleep
Windows 10 is like Windows 7 but with an ssd tier wake and sleep
