Consider your needs and system compatibility before deciding.
Consider your needs and system compatibility before deciding.
I rely on my PC for YouTube and light gaming. My current specs are below; I have 4 gigabytes of RAM and an Intel Integrated Graphics. Should I consider upgrading? Also, I’m dual-booted with Arch Linux. After the upgrade, would I need to reset everything?
Windows 10 performs well on Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Quad processors; just disregard those specs. It’s nice to know you’re on that setup, though I’d still suggest an 8 with a start menu instead of 10.
It's more stable at 8 and works better with a start menu compared to versions 7 and 10, which are currently in an unusual state. Personally, I wouldn't suggest it. However, if you're doing the free upgrade, you might want to give it a shot since you can always revert if it doesn't meet your needs.
