I spoke with and also chatted with Dell representatives a few days ago and they said that I could downgrade to Windows 7 from the new computer which would come with Windows 10. He said when formatting it would recognize two operating systems and I could choose which one felt most appropriate. My wife has windows 10 on her laptop Dell computer and she's not really excited about it but I guess there's a learning curve that I should probably get used to.
After many hours of watching YouTube videos, I have pretty much come to a conclusion that I would like to purchase the Dell Alienware Aurora R6. It seems that Nvidia GTX 1070 that it comes with has basically the same capabilities as the 1080 which is supposed to be the newest and best. I have seen comparison videos between the 1070 and the 1080 and I honestly can't see the difference. And here again, I'm not looking for the best I'm just looking for something that should last for a few years.
Now all I need is to be motivated and frustrated enough to go through the purchase. I can get the computer shipped to me and from my understanding (I've seen on boxing videos a dozen times) and the transference of my memory from my old computer and backed up WD hard drive shouldn't be a big issue. But here again I'm always concerned about compatibility with connectors and the wiring and the unexpected surprises you get when you don't have the right connectors.
Again thanks for the advice and hope to see you people soon.
