    Are Kaby Lake CPUs compatible with Windows 7?

    OK, I understand my Skylake i3-6100 system with Windows 7 will only get updates until July 18, 2018. Fortunately for me, this is my backup system. lol

    Are Kaby Lake CPUs compatible with Windows 7?

    Really? This sounds unreal to me. With the BILLIONS of people using computers why doesn't Mircrosoft make Windows 10 in a way that allows people to get to a Windows 7 layout mode with a simple mouse click?

    Possible Intel i3-6100 CPU eBay scam?

    Did you click on the username to see if they're in the US? Because the ads I saw if I remember correctly were all about the same: same layout, same description, same price, same quantity, but different usernames in the US shipping from Hong Kong and very few feedback scores (like 1, 2 or 3)...

    Possible Intel i3-6100 CPU eBay scam?

    lol, so I finally took the time to click on the eBay money back guarantee banner on their web site (only way I could find the buttons to click to make a request) and made a request to be refunded. It says the seller is no longer a registered user. I was able to make a request to be refunded...

    Are Kaby Lake CPUs compatible with Windows 7?

    Maybe I wasn't always paying attention to prices when I went from AMD to Intel years ago. I can say however that if I would have gone Kaby Lake instead of Skylake, I would have paid maybe more than $60 (Canadian dollars) more. I don't know if I stated this already but the AMD CPU I compared to...

    Are Kaby Lake CPUs compatible with Windows 7?

    OK, thanks for the pic and reply. I always wondered why the industry seems to be trying "scare tactics" to get you to upgrade your OS. In any case, I know the quad-cores might be better in the long term but I chose an i3-6100 partly because its base speed is 3.7GHz and Bluestacks I read is...

    Are Kaby Lake CPUs compatible with Windows 7?

    Since I installed Windows 7 (Pro 64-bit) on a Skylake build, I wanted to know out of curiosity if some people have tried Windows 7 on a Kaby Lake build to see if those CPUs really won't run on Win7. If want to know what I think of the Intel i3-6100, after receiving it I can say I'm surprised up...

    Computer sleeps after Windows 7 updates

    I switched the display and computer to never in power options but it keeps getting into sleep mode when I don't touch it. EDIT: I may or may not have solved the situation by clicking on Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > Change plan settings (next to balanced which is...

    Possible Intel i3-6100 CPU eBay scam?

    I just did and double-checked the number. My notes indicate I ordered the CPU on eBay on November 23, 2016 for $63.69 Canadian dollars (for brand new Intel i3-6100). Today, I ordered the Intel i3-6100 for $147 CAD with shipping and tax from NCIX. After buying the Gigabyte GA-H170M-D3H from...

    Possible Intel i3-6100 CPU eBay scam?

    I just clicked on 3 links after searching for "Hong Kong Post" in google and all web sites had no info for my tracking number. At least I changed my Paypal password. Don't know what else I can do but wait until I get a message I was refunded...
