> There is no reason to use Win10 as a gamer Let me know how Windows 7 on the latest Intel and AMD processors works out for you.

  Great! There’s no reason why you can’t use it. You have to install Windows Updates manually, but MS still provides them (as they have to, by law, in the EU, during the warranty period). And you don’t end up with a system forcefully updating and coming up with a bluescreen after every boot (my win10 test machine atm), nor do you have ads and telemetry in the megabytes after every login.

      That’s automated updates. As required by law, you can still download them anyway.
