I want to make the best Windows XP rig I can for my older games.

I have one with windows 7 thanks.

I wonder who knows which graphics is the best for winXP.

Yes I know there are good ones out there but few have drivers anymore.

So if someone knows then thanks ahead of time :)

 

This seems to be an extremely difficult question as no one seems to know the answer to it.

I am hoping you good people here know it.

Thanks again :)

Some newer cards have support for xp. AMD even has xp drivers for the 300 series and fury cards.

Nvidia offers xp drivers for the gtx 960/950, and 700/600/500/400 cards, as well as earlier 8/9 series cards.

I love Canada. This just sounds disingenuous and sarcastic.

It doesn't really matter. I think he was saying that as a general term since no one knows who you are or if its just a screen name.

Wow, thanks for this.

I will go look for the drivers now and see if I can find them on AMD's site.

 

Sorry but I do not see a little arrow [not trying to be dumb here. I really do not see it].

Hi again.

I tried AMD's website and that card is no longer supported for XP.

Thanks for trying though :)

Saddens me that manners and such are things some one thinks is sarcasm here.

Have things gotten that bad? Really?

I am 56 and still use manners.

 

Sorry if many here has no clue about them and thinks I am being sarcastic.

I don't bother with sarcasm to be honest.

Oh well. Not much I can do about your or anyone else's lack of manners or upbringing.

 

Anyhow, I simply asked a tech question and trying to be polite.

And now I am taken into question whether I have manners or not.

 

This forum does not seem right some how.

 

I went to youtube and watched Linus for months.

I had a question and decided to join here.

I ask one question and now am being drummed for it.

 

Strange.

The nividia titan X or titan xp or titan X pascal [they appear to all be the same].

They are very modern video cards and will not work with windows XP according to Nividias website.

 

But thanks for trying :)

You would have to pick something from the 700 series or earlier to have XP driver support from NV.  Fortunately if you're playing older games then the cards from that generation should be more than sufficient and pretty cheap on the used market.

Thanks. I have literally hundreds of old games and wanted to continue using winxp natively.

Many are 16 bit as well.

Anyhow, thanks for the advise :)
