This is what I game on. 2-3 years old now but still churns out 1440p 60fps on most games so I'm happy

2160p's marginally better clarity on a standard 24" monitor over 1080p is not worth how difficult it is to run, even the 1080 Ti struggles getting to 60 FPS at that res.

Built this around 4 years ago. It still runs pretty much everything at 1080p/60fps. Older games run at 1440p or 4K no problem.
>>
>>384599396

It's true though. If you have nothing to hide you don't really mind privacy issues. You're a normal human who does normal things.

If you download lolicon or child porn or use illegal drugs, then you hate Windows 10.

It's really that simple.

Its alright for shitposting. I'll upgrade to 4k once *70 series can do 4K the way current ones do 1080p. Fuck wasting more than 400€ on GPU.

Also, people with cuck card really need their eyes checked if they think they are getting 1080p 60+ fps on ultra with everything on in new titles.

No problems with it, right? Are C.P. Technology Powercolor or Sapphire? Heard their 580s use quite a lot of power

Saying you don't need privacy because you have nothing to hide is the same as saying you don't need free speech because you have nothing to say.

Privacy concerns aside, it's a fucking awful OS.

>Saying you don't need privacy because you have nothing to hide is the same as saying you don't need free speech because you have nothing to say.

No it's not wtf.

Having nothing to hide is good. It means you're not a fucking pedophile druggie.

Having something to say is normal and good.

Built this boy in early 2013 and it still runs nearly everything perfectly. The only game I want to play but can't is Dishonored 2, which is notoriously badly optimized and runs like crap on just about anything. Have only dusted the interior once since building, thanks to based Fractal.

Every windows is set to automatically update,
and every one can be set to manual download.
In 10 you need to set it in group policy.

Never got an add, i think you have to agree to see this while installing, or maybe it depends on location.

what a fucking lie, i'm barely getting 144fps on overwatch
>>
>>384605667
Most people aren't autistic about getting 144 FPS
144 FPS at 1080p is pretty good on a 2016 game, considering the price of the card.

I think you have unrealistic expectations of your hardware.

1070 is literally perfect card for no compromise 1080p gaming.

>>384605667
the 1070 is overkill for 1080p 60 FPS. The 9xx series is the best if you are aiming for 1080p 60 FPS.

The only real difference is a slight advantage from Win8.1 and 10 over 7 in boot times and go to sleep times.
Gaming are the exact same on all of them.

The problem with Win10 apart from any issues with not being able to disable updates is that it is designed to spy on you in every possible way. Even if you turn off these settings, a lot of them will reset themselves upon reboot. Why would anyone ever consider a OS that has literally been designed to spy on you?

The only reason anyone will ever defend Win10 is because they are too lazy and/or stupid to change to Win8.1.

The only relatively safe alternative OS for gaming is Win 8.1 or 7.
You can always change the look and feel of it with classicshell, themes, rainmeter, etc.
Not that there is any need to.

you've forgotten to mention desktop composition, forced in 8 and 10 (optional on w7)
>>
>>384606759
I've never had forced updates, ads or any shit that retards keep complaining about on jewdose 10. I haven't done any registry edits either besides forcing my ethernet connection to act as a metered connection. You literally just disable like 4 services, that's it, if that. I think using a metered connection is all you really need desu and turning off obvious shit in the settings. There's even software like Spybot Anti-Beacon if you're worried.
If you think they don't spy on you using ANY Windows OS then you're a complete retard. I love how people suddenly care about privacy on an OS level all while using Chrome with nothing but an adblocker, no VPN, using social media, etc and using hardware like newer Intel CPUs that have backdoors built in and some popular motherboards.
Fact is, people use Windows 10 because Linux is still shit for gaming. If you really care about your privacy because you're a pedo, you're going to use throwaway hardware like a raspberry pi running linux. Less than $~100 for all you need.
Oh and have you rooted your phone? You know it's listening to you right? Your smart TV too? Windows 10 is the last thing you should be worried about.
