Hello everyone and welcome to another Budget Builds Episode where today we're taking another look at the $3 PC....Which became the $10 GAMING PC....and now after popular demand we're whacking Windows 7 back on the machine after all its upgrades. Something that about half of you requested (the other half wanted Linux, and ill get around to it soon), so join me as we find out...Can running this now ancient version of Windows imrprove our performance quite dramatically, or is it a complete flop of an idea?
