Hi,
I am getting another computer and avoiding windows 10, as I read here it doesn't work well with SAW. Someone can make me one (specs below) and put windows 7 on it. he said the only issue between the newest AMD RYZEN is a popup from Microsoft that one can disable. I also found an older music machine at B&H that already has windows 7 on it, and is slightly faster than my old machine. the new Ryzen build is much faster, at i7 speed.
I am looking to get this in a few days. Just wanted to check that the new Ryzen with windows 7 would be okay with SAW.
Details below.
Thanks
NEW BUILD:
AMD RYZEN 5 2400G Quad-Core 3.6 GHz (3.9 GHz Turbo) Socket AM4 65W YD2400C5FBBOX Desktop Processor with RX VEGA

WHAT BUILDER ADVISED: "One more thing I do need to mention. AMD, Intel, and Microsoft no longer provide support for Windows 7 on their Ryzen or newer 6th, 7th, or 8th Gen Intel CPUs. They claim Microsoft doesn't support it, but I have been installing Windows 7 on them for the past year and customers haven't had issues other than an annoying popup from MicroSoft that says CPU is no longer supported but you can manually uninstall that warning. The last CPUs supported would be the older AMD FM2 APUs, Am3 CPUS or 5th Gen Intels which would be drastic reduction in performance. I can switch to one of those older systems if you prefer to avoid this, but wanted to give you the heads up before we do this. I honestly don't believe you'll run across any compatibility issues with the Ryzen running Windows 7."
