Tick tock Windows 7

nice strawman, dumbass
countdown to windows 7 eol is not video games
get eternally fucked

i use GNU/Linux you pleb

>develop an OS so bad you give it out for free and people still won't use it
>develop an OS so bad you have to pay bribes to mahor hardware manufacturers and developers to stop supporting your older product so people are forced to upgrade
>develop an OS so bad people rather write generic drivers and figure out how to disable the software blocks to make hardware work on your older system than to upgrade
I mean, this is kinda funny.

lots of people on here stick to windows 7 for video games, retard. It's applicable here just like it is to /g/, except you talk about the video game side of it. do I really need to BTFO you this badly? faggot.

I don't get it W7 hasn't had a major update in a long time it's basically already been dead for years so who cares?
When most games straight up don't work properly in W7 then it will matter but obviously we're not there yet Steam is majority W10 at this point but I there's still enough W7 users that devs won't completely abandon them

My 1 month old laptop does the same so I'd say so.

You don't need to upgrade on any """last""" day because nothing is going to happen. Literally the only reason to upgrade is if you run into a program/game you can't run on W7 or you're upgrading hardware and it demands W10 to work. Microsofts EOS guidelines are just scaremongering to get you to switch.

Unused ram is wasted ram.

Doesn't fucking matter 99% of the time if you have basic antivirus software and don't run shady executables liek a fuckign retards.
>new games won't support it
That will take another 5-10 years and almost everything made after 2010 is fucking trash anyway.

There will be a time in >10 years when win7 will be irredeemably obsolete, but so will be the PC that runs it, I will take it off the net, install only reliable stuff on it and use it to play my current games. Same shit I did with win XP. Fucking retards who buy Winshit 10 just for the sake of buying it or because *maybe* they will have issues with it years from now are the worst.

user you are a retard pls die

Because they made a effort to reduce ram usage after the autism fit people had over vista. Nevermind the fact windows will free up ram when it is needed for an application. Now 16gb is standard and people don't really care how much gets used.

Delete every piece of Nvidia software besides the graphics driver and physx. None of that other garbage is necessary.

Yes, with WINE and Proton and Gaben giving Linux a lot of support, things are getting better and better every day.

There is a learning curve, but the amount of shit you can do in Linux is massive once you get the hang of it. Even if you don't like the way Linux looks, regardless of which name you go for, you can theme it and make it look exactly like Windows 7 if you're that crazy about it.

user, Win 10 has been and will always be free.

I upgraded today and for some reason it installed the Pro version without me needing a key or anything. It just says it has a digital license. I thought this stopped being free a long time ago?

Unfortunately we're in really bad shape when it comes to that. Almost nobody listened to Gaben back when switching could have really made a difference, and now we're going to smash through the Win 7 EOL date in some ways in worse shape than we were back when Steam for Linux launched.

Sure we've caught up in drivers, and the number of playable games has massively expanded, but the number of devs offering native support has declined, the ones that do arrive have been coming much later than other platforms, and we're still struggling to hit 2% let alone the 3% Gaben said would be needed for sustainability and a shift to killer apps for Linux like HL3.
Its basically guaranteed that we're heading into at least a five year period of total console domination similar to the early 00s when Microsoft first moneybagged Linux-friendly gaming companies like Bungie, Epic and Id to drop Linux support and shift focus to the Xbox.

How are people so shit at computers? Literally been using windows 10 day one at home with no issues and have just finished rolling it out to my company. Shit just works.

i used windows 7 and 8.1 for years and i can't remember the last time that i got a bsotd, keep coping win10fag.

strange as i've had it for 4 years with no problems

nah they pretended the free upgrade window was going to end but never disabled it because the adoption rate so terrible

Based. You whiners will have to upgrade eventually. Oh, and you WILL upgrade, when that one game you REALLY want is Win10 exclusive. Maybe none of the current Win10 exclusives are killer apps for you, but there will come a time when almost every new game is Win10 exclusive. It's inevitable that one of them will eventually catch your attention, and you'll cave in and justify to yourself that it's OK to buy it for this one game. Then you'll slowly come to the realization that 10 was better all along and you wasted years using an inferior outdated OS.

Imagine not wanting free performance upgrades. Win7 fags are stupid

>oh look at me I'm the jaded veteran that experienced ooooh OOOOH

Shut up, mongoloid. Keeping Windows going as the most relevant OS is far more important to Microsoft than any pocket change they could have lost out of giving away free copies.

When Windows 7 finally becomes 100% obsolete (and no, that won't be in 2020), I will have been dual-booting a Linux for quite some time already.

This is true as well.
Whenever someone's having issues with a game or program nowadays, I always need to ask "ya on W10?" first.
3/4 times, the answer is yes, and the blame's on the OS.
Like did you know that W10 sucks major ass at running DirectX9 nowadays, which is why they're trying to push 12 and VULKAN ?

You are literally retarded if you think WINE is as good as native Windows for gaming. All for what? So you can say MS aren’t collecting your data? As if they give a fuck what some sweaty basement neckbeard jacks off to?

This shit really boggles my mind honestly
Imagine having an OS that takes full control of your PC to the point where it will randomly delete your personal files when it updates and there's nothing you can do about it
And people are completely okay with this. They think this is normal and will gladly continue to use win10 after it happens. They are that cucked. What the fuck went wrong?
I have witnessed this myself. One of my uni lecturers mentioned it happening to him and he barely cared, like it was normal. Why?

I use Windows 10 and I know how to tweak it, it's actually much better than 7 with better hardware and software support.

Anyone smart enough to use google can find a way to disable forced updates.

I don't get how they just accept them either, what with all the rage I've read about from people getting kicked mid ranked match in whatever flavor of the month shit they're playing. But I guess the rage doesn't last long enough for them to actually learn how to use their computer.

t. retard

I already installed Linux.

They own the platform and can cease issuing updates if they want. Its been on their schedule for years.
They already prevented hardware vendors from properly supporting new components on 7 years ago.

Please don't run an unmaintained OS connected to the internet without recent security updates. Whatever imagined performance losses you'd have from upgrading to GNU/Linux, or using 7 in a VM would be more than cancelled out by upgrading your hardware, or simply upgrading your drivers if you're running 7 on recent hardware it doesn't properly support.
AMD hardware for instance has been benchmarked at 50% faster on GNU/Linux than on Windows in some cases.

There were a few minor things I didn't like, and I fixed them quickly after spending some time exploring the settings. And by "some time" I mean about an hour. Double-digit hours would be a gross exaggeration. Triple-digit hours is mental retardation.

I upgraded a few months ago and the 9700k doesn't officially support W7, I just got LTSC W10 instead, works fine.

Well, that's part of it, at least.

Win10 search bar makes a half-assed attempt to find something similar to what you typed and then just does an app-store and web search. It's awful and I can't figure out who would prefer that over a proper search. So that's the primary reason I replace the start menu pronto on any new Win10 setup.

I keep a few programs pinned to the top of the start menu, but I suppose that's just habit from Win7.
