For my i5 2400, it is already messed up by for post 2015 AAA titles, because console ports coming to PC suck balls. Hyper-Threaded cores would only delay the inevitable. And best Intel offerings are only 40-50% better than what I got, and they cost 4-6x more.

Hurry up Linux and give us better game support. The Windows platform is bloated and restrictive, old hardware that still survives to this day becomes obsolete for me way quicker than it should.

We have such powerful hardware around nowadays and it is really underused. Because we totally need abstraction layers, stopgaps, DRM and all that good ****.

we do need abstraction layers, i like it that my programs no longer cause bsods like no tomorrow

This is 100% BS unless you're gaming and transcoding video to x264/x265 simultaneously which no sane person will ever do.

It might have a modicum of sense in the era of single core CPUs but it's long gone.

Isn't that just shadow play.

Instead of such crippled solutions, why not just make the whole OS being less of a burden on our hardware?

IF they make XBOX go away. It is a Golden OS besides Windows 7 and 8.1 for gamers.

I doubt it will turn the PC into an Xbox. That would be pretty amazing, but unlikely.

Many years late too.

It's pretty awesome being able to pick up and play Forza Horizon 3 on my PC or Xbox at will...
