Vulkan is going to destroy DX12 and it's not even platform independent. Every major game engine is moving towards supporting it and there's literally no reason to make a dx12 game unless it's PC/xbone exclusive

It's actually coming along, they've started working on it a while ago, there's some very early DX11 support right now.

Hopefully we won't even have to worry about DX12 support because Microsoft went full retard and made it Win10 only, which will force developers to continue to support DX11.

The same thing happened with DX9, do you know why it was supported for so long? Because Microsoft made DX10+ not available for Windows XP. It almost killed DirectX too.

>Doesn't Vulkan offer better performance anyway?

There's been way too little time yet to know this for sure. Vulkan and DX12 are similarly designed, so in theory there shouldn't be something that makes either one automatically faster than the other. It'll come down to AMD/Nvidia's implementation of them which one is faster.

People said "Vulkan is faster than DX11/OpenGL 4" a lot but that's not necessarily true, it's just faster if you use it well and didn't use OGL well, and it's harder to use than OGL/DX11. People already used a lot of extensions to OGL to make it work essentially how Vulkan does, so if you already had put in the work on OGL Vulkan doesn't necessarily offer any real speedups.

Being harder to use also makes it take longer to develop games from the ground up with Vulkan which could be a real concern. Games using engines like UE4 etc. of course get a Vulkan port for free, but that's been true for OGL as well and it hasn't meant people used it.
>>
>>337020337
>It'll come down to AMD/Nvidia's implementation of them which one is faster
Vulkan and DX12 are actually a lot more minimal compared to DX11 and OpenGL. Performance will depend a lot less on drivers and a lot more on the engine.

I don't have any problems like that, my computer is probably a bit better than yours. Can yours run Morrowind? I can hit 60 fps easy if I turn off the shadows and lower the draw distance. The draw distance doesn't hurt it too bad, but the shadows are overkill.

I had Win7 and my CPU would always sit around 30-33C

I decided to install Win10 to see what the fuss was about and not only does it run smoothly, it lowered the CPU temps to 23-25C.

Also, Windows 7 downloads some spying updates too.

>>337029238
You have to move to the newest thing if that's what is getting support
>>
>>337029248
>you can turn that off
only some of the more overt options
W10 is built as an information collection system first and foremost

here's a short list of the various updates you will have to uninstall to remove more of the hidden telemetry and spying processes

Some mediocre HP craptop. I can't even hear the dog whining at the neighbor anymore because of how loud the fan is. Also at least you could disable updates by blocking some "crucial" stuff, Win10 just forces you without any say.

All I see it's just paranoia and the word telemetry thrown around.

They already clarified if you use their services like their shitty cloud you can get your files transferred to them.

Logging into the PC with your account also allows them to do that.

For the most part is just searches you perform around your computer to get advertisements and shit.

Simply put, do not use cortana, their cloud, or any of their gay ass services for that matter.

It's no different than using google drive or dropbox since they also do the same.

So basically if you're on a major ISP you're getting your shit spied regardless of OS?

That certainly is going to put at ease all those Anons.

>>337031164

That was last year, at the first month of going free. Then there were reports of laptops not being stable and shit. Later on it was found to be an incompatibility or driver issues with mobile graphics cards.

Not sure if it got fixed.

It has been proven:

http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2015/08/even-when-told-not-to-windows-10-just-cant-stop-talking-to-microsoft/

Even when you disable everything, it keeps sending data.
>>
>>337031193

You can figure out the rest.

I asked what's being sent, not if it was being sent or not. I already know it keeps the telemetry going on but the question remains:

>Has any fucking one confirmed what's actually being sent to their servers?

Nobody has been able to provide an answer to that. It's just mass hysteria.
