Thanks, I forgot to add: i5-2500K

I want to format the SSD, run the 1903-64 Win 10 pro from a DVD and
re-install Windows. Will malwarebytes pro and Kaspersky free run OK?
I am thinking of using Comodo firewall.

the 2500k is pretty slow (as fast as an ancient FX-6300 actually) but
you didn't mention gaming or anything of the sort so there's no reason
for you to worry about its performance. If anything, it's almost as

Thanks Paul. I looked up as well for a comparison, my 2500K is faster.
