This is how AMD should have done it
I am staying with Win 7 for as long as possible. I hate win 10 so much that I would happily use Win 8.1 to avoid it.
So, it's Sandy Lake for me to upgrade my first gen i7 860. Zen looks as if it will be a nice CPU, but if it cannot run Win 7/8.1 it's useless to me and many, many others too I'd wager.
