Hi guys-

So I recently ordered the parts for a new PC, but didn't have enough money to buy Windows 8.1. Will XP work with my setup?

i5 4670K
ASRock Z87 Extreme3
8gb G.Skill Sniper 2133
No GPU yet, also didn't have enough $$.

I strongly advise against using windows xp as Microsoft have stopped updating it. IF your xp computer is connected to the internet it is wide open for hackers and viruses. I would wait for you to get 8.1 and stay away from xp now.

They haven't stopped supporting it yet, but they will.
