Well, a 4070 is more money, the rig is over 7.5 years old, and the power supply is 750W only, there is also a risk that the powerplugs need creative solutions. Finally, air cooling, I don'T know how much space for manouvering I have there, in the first year, temps were critically high quite often, now are usually in the low to mid-70s.


I am more about stability and compatability, not about buying the latest graphics orgies that kill systems much more powerful than mine.


And when I find that it was not the gfx board, and I have a different, unidentifed hardware issue - then it makes itself felt whether I spend 200 Euros more or less.


The good thing is I am not in a hurry. I made a W10 installation medium, finally, and switched the system from local account to Windows account, so that the digital license, that cannot be obtained from the depths of the hardware, is finally linked to that account and can be used to activate a possible W10 re-installation. Hopefully.


As long as Microsoft does not switch all that off in despair, their W11 business still does not go great. I hope it implodes and leaves a big crater.


W10 reaches end of life this autumn, and then gets no more unpaid updates and security updates. I dont care, am already now avoiding updates as good as I can (its no longer possible to avoid W10 updates completely, for many years I could, but no more). I will then rely on ESET Security, Malwarebytes (old life-long license)and the fact that no shopping, personal data, banking stuff or anything sensitive is being run on the Windows rig anymore since years, is all on a second Linux system.
