No. Windows 7 no longer gets security update support. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

i mean 7 is better than 11 but you lose support for everything... W7 doesn't support DX12, and a ton of other stuff like that that you wouldn't think of.

No clue what prompted the question but the only reason to use W7 is the same as people still building and using windows 2000 or DOS. you want to run era appropriate software that doesn't work quite right on current windows.
