    Thanks for the tip. My orginal motherboard quit a few years back and my options were limited by my cpu socket. My biggest issue right now is memory capacity. I’m capped at 16 gb ddr3 right now, my old board went to 32 but its BIOS corrupted then also corrupted the BIOS backup or something.

        I honestly found windows 7 to run faster than 10 on my current set up. Im still on a 120gb ssd for my OS that cost like $200 when purchased so my boot times are fast enough. Im trying to unplug more and socialize/be more active so putting off the upgrade helps me with that in some ways. Glad you’re happy with your upgrade results.

            I have an oposite situation where my work has me working actively and I meet new customers everyday so I’m usually burnt by getting home.

            Smaller communities are really good for meeting more people. Good luck on finding more friendships. I find it hard to meet people in real life during this digital age. I wish it were as easy and common have friendly conversations with a stranger as it is online here.
