You find 10 faster to boot and snappier than Win 7? That's completely
the opposite of what I've found. The laptop I upgraded myself is
definitely lethargic (there is a hesitation after every click) and I've
seen two PCs where the owners wanted them rolled back to 7 because of
how much slower they had gotten.
Perhaps a fresh install might be faster, but I haven't had time to test
that yet.
I would expect games to be faster due to the new DirectX, but
unfortunately I don't have much time to game any more.

I've been a Win10 preview insider for several months now and the final version got automatically
downloaded and installed a couple weeks back. It has patched itself several times since but seems
quiet this week except for Nvidia drivers. Honestly I like Win8.1 which is a lot faster booting and
snappier to use than Win7 Pro which is still on my other two boxes. Win10 Preview was a "bug
festival" with hangs and spontaneous reboots etc. I was lucky if an individual build ran
problem free for one day especially while gaming. The one program I had most trouble with was
Folding@Home but it was Nvidia's fault for not including the "opencl.dll" driver with
their Win10 driver releases. That has been fixed now and all is well with the final build and I
can't recommend it highly enough. Coming from Win7 and 8.1 it's very easy locating the controls to
configure it to my taste. If I don't know where something is Google finds it real fast. I
especially like it with the latest Witcher 3 Wild Hunt 1.07 patch. Smooth.
