Should I get Windows 10 before installing ver 4.2?

Recommended Posts

If you are using Windows 7, stick with that. if you are using Windows 8/8.1, then consider Windows 10.

In general it is always better to update to the latest Windows version.

It's one of the best moments to update the OS. That or changing the main hardware.

I am running Windows Home Premium 64bit now. Is it worth upgrading to Windows 10? What would I gain in performance?

Bear in mind that Win7 Home Premium cannot use more than 16GB of RAM. I learned that after building a new PC with 32GB. Windows 10 Home will use up to 128GB.
