Im building a new gaming PC:

i9 9900K
32GB RAM
RTX 2080

Ok but why wouldn't it recognize it. I mean there's plenty of hardware that could take windows 95 that came out long after windows 95. So why wouldn't windows 95 take my specs?

I'm not him, but here it is.

Microsoft stated back in 2016 that Intel platforms starting from Skylake will not support Windows Vista or Windows 7. Now put it this way, if 6th gen skylake refuses to run on Vista, will it run on XP, 98 or even 95?

Ok. I didn't know that. So I couldn't even install windows 7?
