I second the Windows 64 bit and more RAM. While on paper, it should not matter, in reality, it might. My experience; exact same computer(with LE8), with Windows XP and 6GB of RAM, Dverb score was 320. With Win7 64 bit, Dverb score went to 500. Also, which exact version of 10? Updates are at 10.3.3 now, but many feel 10.3.2 is better, so you may want to update(but save a drive image before any and every system change. Acronis True Image(or similar) is your best friend there
