Microsoft claims "2026 is the moment" for AI PCs, but its essay-length beginner explanation only creates more confusion — Is it any wonder adoption is slow? (www.windowscentral.com)

Honestly, I would say either of those are good options to start with. I sincerely doubt fully breaking the PC. Maybe research Linux for your GPU, you may have multiple options. It may be worth a second hard drive so you can easily swap back and forth until you are fully comfortable. Dual booting on the same HDD is also possible, but more annoying.

Personal issue I ran into: motherboard customization on my big gamer doesn't work without Windows... Not a huge deal, but my Rainbow LED runs its animation in reverse. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Good idea ! I will install it on an external HDD (I have a laptop), so if there is any problem my computer will still be safe. And once i'll will be use to it (in 6 months or a year maybe) I can fully install in in place of Windows ! It's a great advice ! Thank you !!!
