Hello,
new PC Lenovo T470
CPU Intel Core i5 2.4 GHz - 8 GB RAM
Intel HD Graphics 520
Windows 7 Pro x64
Do you think that having Windows 10 with DX12 and all the rest is worth the hassle of reinstalling everything from scratch?
You may wonder why I have Win7 OEM on a recent machine designed for Win10. That's because Microsoft, after yelling "Windows 10 for everybody!", still allows manufacturers to install Win7 OEM through some twisted "downgrade rights" agreement eligible for a free upgrade to Win10.
I have my Windows 10 recovery image ready to install, though it's my least favorite option. I can happily rest on Win7 for another couple years, but obviously support is declining quickly, defective device drivers are no longer updated, etc... so do you suggest to upgrade?
Thank you and goodbye,
Lurka
