That really is fun, i mean on W7/8.1 if you disabled updates and just put wuauserv to manual (not even disabled) the reserved bandwith probably never triggered (unless you had MSE and was just downloading definitions), but on W10 and its shitty update system it could actually make a difference, i mean all those "surprise update cunt ass bitch" download in background without asking you (in my case it even shat on me disabling them, turning off the service and editing the group policies on Pro cuck version).

Windows 7 preferred.

>>57008585
forgot about used card, think of it about getting a used car, first check who was the owner or what he do, like if it's some retarded "overclocker enthusiast" then the card is probably toast, next on the physical side obviously no damage, ask how many times he cleaned it and how (if he opened it, changed the TIM and pads or used air pressure) and if he modded any part or lubricated the fans in any way, also check if the model came with backplate and is not missing any screws.

On software side, ask a test on furmark of over 10 minutes to check artifacts (try to watch it, not just a screenshot) all while GPU-Z monitor it, temps on core/PCB/VDDC phases should tend to be equal and never over 80ºc in full load (assuming fan is 40%+, beware most where blowers and sound like a turbine when fan goes 60%+), test at least the two DVI ports (not sure if you will use the TV-out one, if you can ask for test, same with s-pdif).

Wait, I'm not OP.

Would 8 run good even with an old random-ass integrated graphics card? I experienced some problems (read: random crashes) while installing 7 to be honest, I pretty much expected the same for 8. Sorry for calling 8 (and 8.1) shit without even having tried it. I ran the "upgrade assistant" thing that was floating around during the release of 8, but it pretty much said my RAM and GPU were no good.

I'm well aware that is bullshit, since Windows can run pretty damn well on weaker machines, but I didn't want to lose my system data at the time, so I had to skip.

Anyway, what kind of benchmark is this? It's not like people on XP will use IE7 to begin with.

>>57011922
Find the drivers and install them manually.
I manually installed XP drivers on win7 and worked, try it out!

>>57011922
It's faster, that's all you need to know.

>>57011957
Will I be able to install it, when 7 kinda failed to (I had to fumble around with the files to get it working, and I ended up being able to use the Classic theme only)? I know this is a question I should answer when I eventually install it, but I can't do it now.
