    Default Best OS for Revo r3700

    I've been using Windows on this machine since I bought it and it just can't handle it running sabnzbd sickbeard couchpotato and kodi.

    Installed windows 10 on it today and it isn't any better. Is there another Slimmed down OS which can do the same? I'll also be installing an SSD in this soon too to make a difference

    Are sab, sickbeard and couch potato that intensive? I'm sure they where just background processes when I downloaded stuff?

    I know people like having copies of stuff on their computer but wouldn't you be better off streaming with kodi and genesis etc?

    Or is it for when your offshore?
