RRPyttriumregarding what problem exactly?

I ask because there are lots of issues with windowed mode so I don't know which one you're explicitly talking about
Forced vsync and/or other input lag causing crap, dualmonitor stuttering

Oh, that.

I was actually really sensitive to this issue back in 7, and I made a couple of long, detailed posts about my findings back then here on TFTV.

For what it's worth, I play in borderless windowed for almost every game in Win10, and while it's not perfect, it's FAR better for me than it was in 7 (with aero on). I'm not sure what they've really improved but it does actually feel like it's 144Hz.

Playing a video on another monitor while I play games on my primary 144Hz one will reduce the framerate on the primary, but that actually depends on how demanding the video is (resolution/what browser/what type of player it uses, flash or html5) so I think that's just misprioritized system resources causing issues, rather than actual vsync bugs.

KanecoBonafideOk so I know I probably shouldn't trust Imgur on this matter but

If this turns out to be true, then wtf microsoft, luring people into getting "free" upgrades

Can anyone confirm?
So I'm holding off upgrading to windows 10 atm for this reason alone. Is this fully confirmed?

I'm 100% sure that Jave B. is wholly uneducated about what invalidates a windows install. I've added both RAM and another HDD to my new desktop since installing windows 10 and haven't had an issue with invalidation.

Also side note.

If you have an SSD in a current build with the windows 7/8 on it and want to use it in your new build. Just put the SSD into the new build, do the upgrade to windows 10 and you'll have a valid install again (I did this with an OEM install of windows 7).
