isee that coming fast as well like I said above you can all ready see it like how 7 and 8's are in nvidias release notes of there latest drivers - like a slow fade away till its gone
remember like for 900 series cards where they had xp drivers for say 90 and up ?? then a few months went by and NVidia removed all the xp support even form the older drivers that supported it to start with? lucky I downloaded and saved a few before NVidia changed them , but still last I checked you can get full xp drivers for a 960 /950 cards
http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/105040/en-us pretty say how you now build there computer for there needs instead of you build your computer for your needs . look at these new cards you pay 400 for a pascal card that don't support near as much as the older series did
cant use this cant do that cant won't . wow like I'm going to go buy that junk then turn around and buy stuff that I have to support the card ??? well cant use all my running OS's cant use all my monitors with it but I can with a 900 series or below out of the box plug and play 10 series cant and costs more lol... I guess its true what P.t Barnum said ''a suckers born every day ''
remember this stuff use to support you and your needs now they got it to where you got to support them and there needs , sad but true .
next thing I see coming is if you buy a asus board you will need to use all asus hardware or say evga has to pay asus for the bios's micro codes for there stuff to fully work on a asus brand board [for example ] that's what a uefi bios can do for them if they wanted to where the old legacy bios did not . think on that one down the road the way its now going
anyway good luck
for fun
