I'm still on Windows 7 for my home computer, and it's still fast

Bought my last two computers from Falcon Northwest, and both are pretty powerful. My most recent one is usually well into the top 1% on speed tests. I've built my own machines in the past, however this last one was a little overboard. I do a fair amount of gaming and video editing/processing, so the speed helps.
