Besides, I am sure NVIDIA's R550 Vulkan beta driver will be replaced by new driver branch which only works on Windows 11 compatible CPU when NVIDIA releases Blackwell GPUs in 2025, so old CPUs like AMD's Phenom2 or Intel's Core2 will be affected. There is more to computer use than the retail market. In the US there are people who buy the old computers and send them overseas to Africa and other regions, for use by communities and organisations that still need computers.
FantasyAcquiesce Posted December 5, 2024 Posted December 5, 2024 Simple, just keep my Windows 10 PCs and keep using them until there's a reason to replace them. I'm not forking over 600 USD for another laptop for the exact same tasks as my Windows XP machines.
