Agreed. Though there really isn't anything special about Windows 10, either.

Or maybe I just like windows 7

Well, considering literally tons of games I enjoy, even recently, purchased, would NEVER in a million years, actually been fixable or even run at all in some cases, WITHOUT windows 7.. That's why I just like it myself.

run windows 10, run old windows 7 in hyper v, win win....

people don't have issue with google or apple for some reason, but when microsoft does it all eyes goto them and they are eeeevil, people don't even mind buying fake versions of phones from ebay pre-loaded with spyware thats fine, but anything from ms that isn't XP or 7 wel thats evil.

start is back is awesome if your biggest gripe is the interface

anyways, are there many DX12 only games? i'm assuming ones that are dx11/dx12 still work in 7?

There is no use for DX12 in this game that I see.

DX12 usually runs better than Dx11; that's part of the better tech and optimizations.

Windows compatibility?

Ppl had the same response when WIndows 7/Vista came out and users had issues running Windows XP games

No, it's the fact even titles sold today here are not compatible with it, at all. Hell some even have issues with Windows 7 and only function properly on Win XP. The fact games are not open source after greedy filth CEO's lockout the software from distributors is the problem. It should always be open so selling spots can work on them (I.E. UPDATE PATCHES), not just the damn community, & in many cases some just won't work, end of..

From my perspective DX12 has not matured enough. MD had quite a lot of stuttering with DX12 for some time and now it runs essentially the same. It doesn't upgrade the visuals either.

Can only agree that DX12 so far have been a huge disappiontment for me. Most games run better with DX11 anyway, and I can't see any visual difference at all. So those that upgraded to WIN 10 for DX12 only, can just wait a little longer.

I totally skipped win 8-8.1 as I hated the interface, I tried WIN 10 Pro, and it's almost faster to turn off all crap, and get it as you want it, from a fresh install in Win 10 then Win 7.. (OK every update you have to read really carefully what you have to turn off once again, (and preferably have all scrips saved on another drive if you should be forced to reinstall))

So WIN 10 Pro is the first op-sys I ever bought, and I've been chugging along since the DOS times, when Norton Commander were the king

You realize the telemetry was backported to both 7 and 8 right? And that it can be disabled?

Let me guess... Maxwell GPU?

EDIT->Pascal!.. AMD might be able to squeeze more out of it (soon at least) But getting a 1080, and having to lower GFX to maintain 60+ FPS were a little bit of a downer, considering it's not that good looking.
