The only thing it's going to hurt is the security updates and possibly driver updates. You will still be able to use it unless a new game comes out that needs a specific driver. Not sure if GPU manufacturers will continue to make updated drivers for Win 7. That is up to the GPU manufacturers. You can still upgrade to Win 10 for free with the Media Creation tool. As long as your current win 7 is activated. Doesn't matter if you activated it with a KMS activator or what ever. All it looks for is to see if the current version is activated. If it is then it will let you upgrade to a legit digitally signed, pre activated copy of Win 10. Once you upgrade and it validates I would do a complete reinstall. Upgrades are very buggy and problematic at best. Edited March 25, 2019 by J3st3r TheHammer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
