Upgrading to Windows 10 will give you an experience as if you have upgraded your graphic card. DirectX 12 will go leaner on the CPU too.

Test have shown that the frame rate can be doubled.
This is like getting free hardware," Langley said. "So if you're a gamer, and you upgrade to Windows 10, and you have that Iris Pro, it's like getting that extra kick. It may make your game go from not quite playable, to playable, from mediocre to awesome, from awesome to just out of this world


The effect will be better on Nvidia cards than on AMD.

MIcrosoft building on its strengths there, which seems to be a good idea.

Sadly; what you also get with Windows 10 is the MS certified secure boot which takes the flexibility out of your hardware....
Microsoft doesn't love Linux that much :mrgreen:

If you are a gamer this is probably just too tempting.

Interesting.

I always say to lure people to Linux you need games as some for younger generation to get their feet wet. One thing that MS is good at it. Just turn them in XBox Bots :lol:

But in another hand... this MS Love Linux crap is not some to be trusted. If I am them and I know how much they Cheat and Steal is a way to get their way to the Linux code. Once they are there, they can send a battery of layers to make stupid patents and steal Linux from underneath. Is not going to happen overnight; just small increments.

What will be interesting.... how to turn the tide to the Open Source side.... :smug

Kind of "Looking for Wool and end up Sheared" in the process :lol:

It must be possible to get that superduper graphics on Linux too:
Steam has announced the Steam machines and they are Linux based if I have understood it correctly.

It looks like the most advanced Steam Machine will have dual boot though. :think:

hmm.. Linux becomes Vulcan ! , really.. the next Generation of OpenGL names Vulcan .. :T
( in my opinion, it' gives an better name, because the association with an word Vulcan of Graficspower it's not well
maybe OpenInf (for infinity) or OpenUBG (unbelivibal Grafics Power or something is be not bad.. but "Vulcan" ?)

in this words, let'z go on WC and give Lava *g*
it is the next Generation and Smell, really, you can see the 3D Graphics and can smell it ! :mrgreen:
:lolup
