Since you are purchasing the license, you can upgrade your hardware without any hassles..only if you have opted for free upgrade, any majors hardware , it might make your windows 10 license invalid.

Even with the free upgrade you can get the key so no issue . and for new purchase I will recommend to buy windows 8.1 from G2A ( around 1.4k) than upgrade to windows 10/for free .

This sheet's getting serious now. Keyboard stops working randomly in Chrome.

Found possible culprit. Disabling IDM extension seems to solve this problem.

Nice tool for personalizing W10.

Downloads / Software / Winaero Tweaker

I have winten 64bit installed. The peak memory use reaches 90% (7.4gb) while playing Battlefield 4/CoDAW , etc. Never used to happen on WinSeven. I have turned off unnecessary things at startup.

[MENTION=140405]Hrishi[/MENTION] I think my machine does the same for BF4. GTX 970 at ultra drops below 30 fps with Win10 did not happen with Win 8.1

 

[Faun]

Fix ?

Can you check which process uses so much ram ? It might be memory leak in some badly coded software.
