Hi all, just about to order a 2700X from Amazon, and I happened to notice it says:
Compatibility: Windows 10 64-bit, RHEL x86 64-bit, and Ubuntu x86 64-bit.
Windows 7 isn't mentioned, does this mean the 2700X can't be used with Windows 7 64-bit?
I understand that I need Windows 10 for DX12, and that it has other functions that will improve performance, but I'm going to be using an 8Gb RX580 for awhile, and I'm thinking that's going to be my bottleneck, and I won't need the enhanced performance yet.
I figure that whenever I upgrade the GPU, I can get Windows 10 at that time. I'd get it now, (want to play State of Decay 2) but I'm straining my budget limits as is.
So can I use the 2700X with Windows 7?
