Here's the problem. When you upgrade to the newer motherboard chipsets....there are no drivers for anything BUT Win 10.
As for task scheduler....who needs it.

That's cold. I thought you said task scheduler

/e All I can tell ya bro, is that Win 10 is faster than Win 7. And you can beat it into submission as to "looks" as well.

/ee I'm sure part of it is the new hardware, but with WinAero you can disable a lot of crap that Win 10 needed to deal with, out of the box.

It's humorous how Ghot was on the forever 7 train and preached it like mad

1. what art said
2. what art said but keep in mind bios idle is much hotter than desktop idle but to me that still sounds too warm.
3. fuck windows 10
4. at stock of course it will be, but don't overclock with it. Also why do you want corsair's garbage? Go arctic freezer, they got a dank vrm fan and no useless rgb insane value and low price.
5. arctic freezer II
6. cable management is optional
7. windows 7 is not slow, it even has a better scheduler than 10 in many workloads. Even with build 2004.
8. do one fan in front one in back for now, all you need for push/pull config technically...

i did try 10, just wasn't impressed at the time.
I may upgrade one day when i can consider it an upgrade for my usage of the computer.

Don't get me wrong, there's a lot I don't like about Windows 10. They added enough junk in there to make a grown man cry. They destroyed the GUI. Win 10 reminds me of one of those one-man-band guys you used to see in the 1940's.
Sure it makes sounds, but I wouldn't exactly call it music. :/

The telemetry is bordering on criminal, and finding even the simplest settings is a nightmare. Then when you do find a setting you have to decipher it. I guess I'm about two weeks into it and have had to spend those entire two weeks eliminating 90% of the crap
that whoever designed this junk, thought up.

It's almost like, Windows 10 is more like a badly designed video game than an operating system. But if you like to "tweak" things, there's so many side quests in Windows 10, that it'll keep you busy, for years. And for extra added enjoyment, there's always the Windows Updates which rewrite the game code every month, and twice a year, the "feature updates" are like meeting the scary boss monsters.

Just when you get everything tweaked, just how you like... MS comes along with an evil cackle, and changes everything. Windows 10 does seem to be able to do anything, and it accepts any device you can think of, but it doesn't seem to do anything... well.
But... like any video game, with perseverance, and determination you can defeat any monster MS throws at you.

And this isn't just your average every day video game. This one attacks you, even during install. You have to be on your guard 24/7 with Windows 10.

Security wise... Windows 10 is definitely more secure. The only hackers you'll ever have to deal with on Windows 10, are those that live at Microsoft. :D



Last but not least, there are three program you must have if you're running Windows 10...

1. Revo Uninstaller
2. WinAero Tweaker
3. Great backup software

For the last, the backup software... after testing out like 3-4 of the most highly recommended, I went with Macrium Reflect 7 (free). It's not exactly user friendly, but it's VERY powerful, even in the free version. Best of all, it only runs one service and one process. That, most of all is a welcome breath of fresh air in the backup software world.
