Hello All,

 

I've seen this question lurking around but no update for the past two weeks came up regarding this issue.

 

The free upgrade to Windows 10 under "Check My PC" It says the "Here's why Windows 10 Can't Be Installed On This PC" : Nvidia GeForce 980 TI (Your Display wont work)

 

Has anyone came to a fix or still in the dark?

  MOBO: Gigabyte GA-Z170X Gaming 7 RAM: 16GB Corsair Dom. - CPU: i5 6600k w/ H100i

 PSU: Corsair RM 850 - GPU:  GTX 980 Ti - Case: NZXT 820 Full Tower

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

Switch to the onboard graphics temporarily, upgrade, then when you're inside win10 re-install your graphics drivers. Nvidia should release drivers for the new OS anyway considering it launches next week

It's completely blown out of proportion. Also if you're the least bit worried about data gathering then you should go live in a cave a 1000Km from the nearest establishment simply because every device and every entity gathers information these days. In the current era privacy is just fallacy and nothing more.

Similar thing popped on my PC yesterday... AVAST was screaming, that my PC is running slow (check my specs) and only "viable" thing it posted to "speed it up" was to remove 1,1Gb of unused files and such (mind you I have 4TB HDD) :D
