Since windows 10 is more spyware with each update what is the best option for a gaymen partition?
Windows 8.1 or 7?
>>51605227
which ever you prefer
All of 10's botnet has been backported to 7 and 8 and is forced to you through updates.
You're basically fucked whichever way you guy. I have Win10 installed, though. Nothing to hide.
If it is really only a gayming partition it shouldn't matter. Just game there, then boot to linux.
Win10 is the best for gaming due to performance enhancements. Why do you give a shit about telemetry if you're gaming anyways?
>>51605227
Fear not my goy, we estimate that 100 million are already using windows 10, you will just be a number and your data pointless indexed crap

What does that say?
It's all Greek to me.
8.1 embedded

Um... whats her name again?
>>51605377
Such huge improvements.
windows 10
I'm assuming you have a separate gnu+linux partition and only use windows for gaymen.
>>51605227
Just block outgoing traffic from ms
>>51605284
thats why you leave automatic updates turned off
>>51605602
Improvements are improvements. The fact that they were able to have improvements while still harvesting all the shit for telemetry is a testament to how much better the internals are.
>>51606071
>these improvements aren't actually improvements because of <unrelated bullshit>
broham desu
>>51606129
The fuck does harvesting usage info have to do with a weak ass quarter of a frame improvement.
Their unrelated when I call you a dumb motherfucker, but amazing space age techo wizardry when you suckin redmonds dick.

Is thanks giving break over yet? It's late, go to bed.
>>51606231
>only cares about gaming
>doesn't just use Windows 10
Oh no, Microsoft will know that I'm playing video games!
7. the improvements are not noticeable.

DX11.1/.2 and DX12
>>51605227
My next PC will be VT-d enabled which will solve everything (current is a i5 2500k).
I will have a Linux based system with windows 10.1 in a VM which will have full control of the graphics card, and locked down by a thousands firewalls.
Game when I want, have absolutey everything like Firefox and mumble on Linux, windows will have just steam.
>>51606676
how many games use those? 0?
>>51606777
Same plan here. Haven't quite worked out a parts yet as I'm waiting on Zen, but generally thinking I'll be looking for a Thunderbolt controller on the motherboard or as an expansion card. Whether or not AMD lines up for that at that time is less than likely right now, but I'm holding out hope for a nice surprise.
If you have a parts list, go ahead and post it.

GNU/Linux + Wine
>>51607379
See >>51606777
Wine simply does not provide the performance required for modern gaming, and a virtualized setup with PCI-E passthrough provides the best of both worlds.
Install ReactOS

Which data does w10 collect and why should I care?
>>51609554
>what information does win10 take?
it takes your wife's naked photos, your daughter's phone number, and your bank account information
optionally, it will just take telemetry data, hash some photos, or upload some filenames. For example: upload every button you click in windows explorer to microsoft
I personally don't think it goes far enough, and have signed my house over to microsoft in my will.
>why should I care?
You have nothing to hide, right? Why should you?
>>51605227
good lawd what a qt ^^ what's her name?

Keep the thread alive, and maybe you'll find out if >>51605472 comes back.
>>51607947
What's the status on this now? Is it feature compatible with the day to day from Windows XP yet?

Yeah, right..

Windows 10 desktop for gayman
Windows 98 laptop for fappan

Explain
>all those people recommending keeping separate OS just for gaming
Do you really see no problem in switching OS when you need to do different tasks?
My 7 right now is usable 10-15 minutes after launch, with heavy disk usage by "perfmon" and such processes, despite low memory/cpu usage. I cant imagine switching to linux just because I would need to do work instead of playing games.
>>51610339
Your game OS really shouldn't be anything more than that. Even on my shitty hardware I have no problem getting into a usable Windows 7 within 5 minutes of power off.
If you're currently having that long of a boot time, you need to be optimising something. Low hanging fruit is startup programs and scheduled tasks.
>>51605309
>Nothing to hide.
That's irrelevant. You shouldn't allow this even if you don't care since there are people that do care.
>>51610425
that's like saying i can't have milk because you're lactose intolerant.
>>51606676
DX12 won't become a standard until much later when some other Windows OS has replaced 10.
Windows 10 is a supreme operating system for gamers and business men alike. I would highly recommend updating to Microsoft's latest operating system. DirectX 12 is going to be sick, desu.
>>51610392
That 7 is running without reinstallation for like 5 years maybe. I checked startup programs but there is nothing "heavy" except for Avast.
>>51610437
That makes no sense. What I'm saying is that since you obviously don't care if someone is spying on you then it shouldn't matter if the telemetry were removed/didn't exist. Why should you be catered to when you couldn't care less either way?
>>51605227
Idk how edgy your gamin is but windows 10 supports DirectX 12.
>>51610339
My laptop with an SSD and windows 10 reboots to desktop in literally 10 seconds.
It's not really a problem switching OS's if you are about to play a game for a long time
>>51610457
Actually, why should DX12 become more popular than Vulkan? If said Vulkan will be released, of course.
One would be able to run only on single OS, rest would be able to run on nearly all.
>>51605472
>>51610494
I do hope Vulkan debases DX to be honest. I'd love to see Windows lose its hold on PC gaming.
>>51610520
I would love to see Vulkan debase DX despite being Windows lover for simple reason - I could play my games with Windows 7, completely ignoring 10. I dont mind Linux getting part of pie at all.
But after running Mint at work, I still prefer Windows. And much Aero Glass.
So I pirated windows 8.1 a while ago, my copy says it's been 'activated'
Can I just go through windows update to 10 without any reprecussions?
Should I upgrade anyway?
>>51609890
I'm here
She is a know as fuck BR camwhore that jumped into porn how fucking new are you

Wait until the next generation of DirectX 12 games.

Looks like Anita is going for the "using sex appeal to capture an audience doesn't make me less of a feminist extremist" approach.
