Windows Upgrade?

[PCTechNoob]

So i'm trying to save money on a copy of windows for my new gaming PC and was wondering if it was possible to purchase a copy of windows 7 (https://softwaregeeks.co.uk/product/windows-7-professional-product-key-label-coa/) as it is cheaper than windows 10 right now and upgrade. Would it all work fine or am I better spending more money on a copy of windows 10.

It should work fine, but there are a couple things that you should keep in mind.

Depending on the system (if it's a pre-built or one you put together yourself) the Win 10 upgrade might not have rolled out yet.

If you go the Win10 upgrade route and then want to upgrade your key hardware (CPU or Mobo) at a later date, you will have to contact MS support to get the OS re-authenticated because it is registered to your hardware configuration at the MS servers.

ok, I will probably just buy Windows 10 without the upgrade. I'll do some shopping around and find the cheapest price.
