Hi everyone,
I have just bought myself some new parts and buidling my new machine. I have treated myself as its been over 7 years since I last upgraded.
I got myself:
Intel i5 7600K
MSI Z270 Gaming M5 motherboard
Crucial 4x 8GB DDR 4 Ram (I know the amount of ram is overkill but honestly you would be shocked at the price I paid hence why I got it)
Define R5 Case
Noctua D15s Cooler
Crucial MX 480GB ssd
Toshiba 2TB Internal HDD
Only thing I have left to get is a good graphics card which I will get soon, just been deciding back n fourth about it.
Anyhow, the most I am going to be doing is a lot of multi tasking, browsing, emails and watching HD/Bluray Movies via MadVR Codec.
I would like to get the best out of my hardware in terms of playing back movies and overall system performance. I know that for games I will need windows 10 but honestly I dont do pc gaming no more, I prefer my xbox. I dont really like windows 10, I have used it on some peoples machines and hated the new layout etc.
Currently I am still using Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and love it.
I would like to know what you all think? Should I jump to windows 10 to get the best out of what I have bought or will it not make a difference if I don't do pc gaming?
Sorry for making this post long and apologies if I have posted this in the wrong section.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
