No issues at the moment but i did not use it extensively yet will update once i do since the build i did not use it a lot yet aside from time consuming software updates/drivers/patches and so on on each platform, only thing i had to mod my case a bit to fit the GPU (small piece had to be cut out of a hdd tray panel with a multi tool) I looked at R9 290x as well but won't work with xp which was a bummer, Titan X is too expensive for this build, but the 7970 will do just fine it is equivalent to +-R9 280x/GTX 960 my use case for this system is to have games on each of the OS'es from their respective era.

I know it is dated, i re-used parts lying around still for that era it is a beast for gaming also compatibility with XP / Vista and 7 was required so not much options I know the Titan X is the best but i am not spending that amount on this system and it won't be needed for my use, if i need more power i will use my "current" pc

I just built a Vista Ultimate beast with following specs, had most parts lying around after doing a couple upgrades to builds of relatives/friends, love Vista CPU: Xeon W3680 MB: Asus P6t SE X58 RAM: 6x4gb @ 1866c9 GPU: MSI HD 7970 OC SSD: 500gb Sata
