4K Bliss(windows XP) on a 1080p VG248QE.

Why? FOR THE GLORY OF SATAN OF COURSE.

I like XP and I would still use it if games with DX 10 and 11 ran on it.

You need to take a look at this song.

It's true though. I only plan to use XP on my dual-PIII rig just because of drivers and older games. If it weren't for that, it would be getting Windows 7.

XP reminds me of my childhood(born 2000, be happy I am not using win 95, that's the OS on my first PC) and that's why I like it, also the metro style on 8/8.1/10 is just awful.

The other thing is my second PC has XP because it has only 2 GB ram, and it's at 50% (1gb) on idle, but with a e8400 I know it has the CPU power to run even win 10.

I was born and raised on XP but I don't use it any more than I have to, and there's good reason for that. I mean, there are no more security fixes, Pro x64 sucks ass just to get more than 4GB of usable RAM...

Got an idea last night and photoshopped some images to make this. It's now my wallpaper.

Inspired by https://twitter.com/sadserver

I actually couldn't underclock my 5 year old GPU to make it as slow as a next-gen console.
