Needs an upgrade to Windows?
Needs an upgrade to Windows?
You're exploring options to save costs by getting Windows 7 instead of Windows 10 for your gaming PC. It's worth noting that Windows 7 is no longer supported, so you'd need to ensure compatibility with your hardware and software. Comparing prices at the link you shared can help decide if it's a better financial choice now versus later.
It should function properly, though a few points need attention. The Win 10 upgrade may not be available yet depending on whether you use a ready-made version or build it yourself. If you proceed with the upgrade and later replace your hardware components like the CPU or motherboard, you'll need to reach out to Microsoft support to re-register the OS since it's tied to your device setup on their servers.
I think I’ll go with Windows 10 straight away without upgrading. I’ll compare prices and look for the best deal.
