SCAgent: Been a windows user for 20 years, I use my PC mostly for gaming never felt like I had much choice, so I will probably have to update when the time comes, Cant wait for something to break during the upgrade process and having to reformat everything again....
I have been wanting to try linux for a while now, been researching about it this past year, I hear gaming is very feasible there..
I tried to use Linux for some time (Ubuntu more particularly). I found that many things from changing systems settings to installing new applications was more of a hassle than in Windows. It's probably partly a matter of getting used to the new system, but after a few months I returned to Windows and it was a relief. :) So Linux is not for everyone, but people should at least try to use it for some time. It's a priceless experience.
MysterD: I still have my GTX 970 desktop with i7 950 CPU, which has W7 x64 on it.
I was considering to build an old rig for games that don't want to cooperate with modern hardware and operating systems. I would probably use WinXP for it, although it's also not perfect. I wonder how a Win98 trip to the past would look like in modern times... :D
amok: edit - anyway, just need to wait and see. there is realy no confirmed info about w11 yet, not even when it is released. MS is goinf to showcase 'something' on the 24'th, but wheter this is the release date or not is not confirmed. So not really any info yet for another 3 days, everything else is speculations.
The leaked build give us certainty that the system is coming. It'll probably be announced on 24th. I expect a release in the 4th quarter of this year. So basically we can expect a release in the same time as the next big update for W10. Or maybe Microsoft will drop the major updates for W10, focusing only on security aspects. Everything will be revealed soon.
