Games are mostly what's keeping me on Windows. I don't need nor want to upgrade, the games I play and stuff I do run fine on a i7-3770k (oc'ed to 4.2 boost), 24GB ram and a 4060. No TPM wanted. How many computers will be recycled in October '25?

My PC runs 11 24H2 pretty fine even if it's a 12ish-years old CPU. Why would I want a new one?
