Because I'm not going to willingly install malware on my PC, even if it's Microsoft branded.

because using older versions of software is retarded

Autism

I’ll only put some food on this dry ass bait because of your digits.

My brother’s computer has Windows 8.1. It sucks ass. Case closed.

anyone else think Jow Forums might be compromised by outsiders?
hiromoot doesn't talk about it, but there's weird stuff going on sometimes. or weirdly pruned or weirdly promoted threads too.

>scriptfags

Because it's windows. Build by Microsoft and Microsoft doesn't have normal developers. They can't even bring dark theme a year after development. All they care about telemetry.

I agree, but no one else seems to.

Go on gif someone keeps making threads for advertising scam sites. I'm half convinced this hiroshima's way of getting around adblocking, by giving free license to make threads.

pajeets fuck off
desu anti-linux and pro-windows threads increased by 4 times since valve announced proton

>using it right now
>it just works

8.1 made me tweak more things to make it usable that I did 10 years ago as a nerdy teenager with vista inspirat xp.

Retard

Gonna have to agree with OP.

-Native USB3 support, also better hardware support out of the box than 7
-Better memory management than 7
-Better multimonitor support and scaling than 7
-Better task manager than 7
-Faster than 7 on newer low end PCs
-Boots faster even without hybrid boot
-Way more stable than Windows 10
-Doesn't try hard to replace every older component that doesn't need fixing (like the control panel, default programs settings or opening CMD on folders)
-Doesn't shove notifications down your throat about anything you do or don't do
-Doesn't force updates and works the same as 7 with them, can choose which to enable or disable

Its only fault is the start menu, which can be replaced in a minute.

Quints say win 8.1 embedded is theone and true path

4GB VRAM limit in DX9.
Cloud integration which can't be removed.
Store integration which can't be removed.
METRO garbage part of which can't be removed.
Can't disable desktop composition.
Shadow Copy fucked.

Windows 7 is simply better in every single way.

Attached: Windows-7-logo.png (537x534, 95K)

Because I use Ubuntu and I like it better.

okay but how is 4gb vram limit reached at all? use pagefile

What does pagefile have to do with VRAM?

Skyrim titty texture mods and a few select ancient games played on 5K. You know, gotta use that amazing GPU with 4GB of VRAM for that stupid shit.

Well thats where my shit gets put when I fill my vram

i prefer either 10 or xp

>no DX12
into the trash it goes, along with Windows 8.

list of better os:
linux
freebsd
openbsd
mac os x
haiku
plan 9
literally anything that ever existed

I suggest you first look online what VRAM is then come back to this thread.

why there are 2 steering wheels on the trolley that the little pepe is riding?

Because it's still crap. Older games play like crap. Neverwinter nights is example. It will stutter the fuck out. 7 plays fine.
7 will forever be king

Dude I literally watched dark souls 3 do that shit on my 2gb card

enjoy the botnet

>compatibility mode: win7
WOW

Once VRAM is filled part of it needs to be flushed. Pagefile is only for RAM.

Redundancy for failover options

Based and Redpilled, 8.1 with ui mods is God tier.

Attached: mrrobotsaison4confirmee.jpg (684x385, 16K)

Nah. Some games need more fixing than that compatibility mode. However there's barely any fucking games these days that don't have a quick patch for that shit.

Does shit.

>.1
>literally the botneted version of windows 8
just use 8.0 without updates

based, redpilled and saved

Try Windows 9 - which is a customised iso of 8.1 embedded.

cd Cringe/ && scrot

now win10 build 1803 is required to run freesync monitors with nvidia cards its basically the required OS that will save you like 500$. wait for LTSC 2018 that will build 1803 use that.

You're forced to use Metro on 8 though, and 8.1 has various improvements to 8.

There is no reason to use 8 over 8.1

>4GB VRAM limit in DX9.
What unmodded DX9 game uses more than 4GB VRAM?

>Cloud integration which can't be removed.
You can remove OneDrive via registry.

>Store integration which can't be removed.
You can permanently stop Store from making any connections and thus not function. I haven't ever used or seen it since I did it.

>METRO garbage part of which can't be removed.
Classic shell. I haven't seen the metro screen in 4 years.

>Can't disable desktop composition.
Disabling it makes performance worse on modern GPUs.

>Shadow Copy fucked.
No clue what you mean.

Windows 8.1 is perfectly fine.

That image doesn't even apply in this context. Most games that used DX9 are old, and even then they never came close to using 4GB VRAM, so what unmodded game are you playing that requires more?

Let me guess you're some little shithead that wants to install a billion mods in Skyrim.

You have completely missed the point. lmaoing at ur life.

how many times are people gonna post this fake quote?

but i do use it

Attached: my desktop.png (1920x1080, 724K)

Ok what point are you making? Modern games using DX10 and above do not have that limitation.

It's not fake.

My point is saying "but you don't even need it" is retarded because one day you will.

I'm still using win 7. The only thing that was added after it was spyware and limitations.

Of course windows has been spyware since at least 98.

nice proof retard

>My point is saying "but you don't even need it" is retarded because one day you will.
...So you're just proving my point that you have no idea what you're talking about and the context is irrelevant here.

>one day you will
DX9 is old. Devs do not use it for modern games anymore. You will never need it. The only reason anyone would even think of needing 4GB VRAM for DX9 is for stupid shit like 4k textures and mods in old ass games.

You wasted my time.

durrrrrrrrrrr wrong

Of course he will deny it, he's had the piss taken for it for years.

Look at this fucktard everyone, look.

He's trying to argue that having limitations is better than not having limitations.

He's a cock sucking retard. Look at him and laugh.

Also fuck you Hiro for range banning VPNs

nani?

Jow Forums really is full of normies

maybe it is but frankly, i really don't have the time or will to digest all that widows experience. i'm literally too old for that shit. i'm on debian for 3 years now, and i really don't care any more about windows or microsoft.

good luck.

and windows phone failed in the market.
m$ only exists because people have PCS nothing else, and vars get premium from them

>implying microsoft makes money from windows

>What unmodded DX9 game uses more than 4GB VRAM?
Many if you play on high resolutions.

>You can remove OneDrive via registry.
You merely disable it, but not remove it. Same with Store.

>Classic shell. I haven't seen the metro screen in 4 years.
How's creating new user accounts working for you? Or managing wireles networks including connecting to them.

>Disabling it makes performance worse on modern GPUs.
I don't know, on my Titan Xp I see different results.

>No clue what you mean.
I can see that.

There is nothing wrong with metro. All it does is flash on the screen and then immediately disappear when I start typing two letters and hit enter for the program I want.
Or just click on the big tile that I want.
8.1 breaks many things that made metro good as well. Like new installed programs don't auto's how up in metro start window thing, and search indexing sucks.

When has it not? Personally, I've been disabling it since XP, at least. I don't even remember if it was available prior.
