If you're in 2017 and you still use a 32-bit operating system and expect to be able to use the latest and greatest hardware/drivers you're a fucking nut anyway because your system is pretty impressively bottlenecked by your inability to use more than 4gb ram anyway.
There's a point where it's a huge waste of resources to keep updating for completely outdated tech, especially when the difference is buying an 8gb stick of ram and installing a 64-bit OS, which is pretty damn cheap since the ddr3 price drop.
Anyone's who's on 32-bit Win 8 is probably running an Atom or something anyway.
According to the Steam Hardware survey .10 percent of its user base use 32bit Win8, you're talking even less than that when you consider 23.41 percent of steam users use AMD.
Most of those are probably Atom tablets anyway, its such a small drop in the bucket that I would agree with their decision.
I'm still on Windows xp why can't I take advantage of these new features how dare they
Why do us windows 98 users get no love from the big hardware companies anymore?!? It's a scam to get us to buy new hardware I tell you! I paid $500 for my GeForce 2 Ultra and I'm entitled to product support 17 years later! /s
