Very nice.

Have you found any benchmarks that compare the performance between the 2 mobile versions and their desktop versions, just to see what the actual performance differences are?
Sent from my SM-G900F...
Yes, but in Pro you can set the OS to delay all pushed updates for up to a month and set a scheduled day for the system to perform a monthly update of accumulated updates. Not really recommended...
@DC. No, the 980 doesn't justify the huge difference in price compared to the performed difference. If you were planning to run games in 4K resolution or were serious about VR such as Oculous...
Yes, mobile versions are a bit less powerful. Before you decide just check to see when the next series of GPUs are sure to be announced because they might not be far off. The 970 and 980 have...
I went from an XFX 6950 XXX Double-D 2GB to an MSI GTX970. I had the old card for quite some time since building my i7 2600K gaming rig at the start of 2013 and it had performed perfectly well up...
Is good that they did.
However to save the hassle I just would have installed a cracked copy of 7 with the Windows Toolkit on the new system, then downloaded the Windows 10 Pro ISO from M$ and...
The 970 GPU is brilliant for the price. It's what I upgraded to last year and it's a great upgrade. I posted the upgrade test results somewhere at the time. It tripled the performance in...
Yes that is quite cool that once complete everything remains the same. It's the first Windows update that has achieved that so well.
Initially I was a bit unsure about the flat windows look...
Yes. I've done it for a few systems. As long as Windows 7 is showing as genuine it will upgrade ok to an official licence.
Regarding Windows 10 Home vs Pro. Home has some useful things...
Don't upgrade a home edition as you will be stuck with the home edition of 10. You can upgrade an unofficial copy of 7 ultimate to 10 just fine if it was correctly activated by the Microsoft...
Performance from 8.1 to 10 is less noticed compared to upgrading from 7. You will only really see a significant performance boost with high end hardware.
Regarding nVidia. I had a similar...
In answer to your other question. Yes you can do a clean windows 10 install. However you need to first upgrade an existing registered copy of 7 or 8 to convert the serial number to 10 and...
Why not just upgrade to 10? It is better than 7 amd fully compatible.
Regarding the icon. I never had any upgrade issues whilst still on 7 with the icon. I also never upgraded via the icon...
Anyone wishing to, you can download the latest preview ISO for Windows 10 to give it a try.

Good to know, but why didn't they just have it quit once complete? Should have worked like the 30 day to authenticate your license message Windows throws up when first installed.
It is annoying that the icon remains, even after completing the registration and selecting close.
Just to confirm. . All of my "copies" of Windows 7 had the upgrade to Windows 10 icon appear in the notification bar. I've registered the upgrade just so I have the option within the next year...
Apparently even those running pirate copies of Windows 7 will be invited to take part in the free upgrade. It's Microsoft's way to attempt to get all users onto the same code base and secured with...
