Microsoft reveals why 32-bit Windows was limited to 4GB RAM, and it wasn't a technical limit

2+ day, 3+ hour ago   (900+ words) It’s a popular myth that 32-bit Windows is limited to 4GB of RAM because a 32-bit address can only represent 2^32 combinations, which works out to 4GB. This is one of those things that sound true until you look at the history of…...

Microsoft extended Windows 10, but Nvidia just made the extension meaningless for gamers

1+ week, 6+ day ago   (456+ words) Windows 10 is fully supported until October 2027 as part of Extended Security Updates (ESU), which makes sense given that 3 in 10 PCs still run the “retired” OS. But it’ll eventually become difficult to keep using it, specifically for gaming, as Nvidia is…...
