I think it's good.
about win 10 I heard that it gives out your internet password to people and use my computers internet to download software to other peoples computers and stuff. I know I can turn all the privacy settings to what I want, but I'm just not sure if I can trust Microsoft in this one.
also my friend said that I should use a 4gig VRAM card instead because he said "most games don't even use 4 gig VRAM". if that's the case should I change my card to a r9 380X or something similar? I would like to make my computer future proof for a while and I would hate it to get a card that won't last me at least 2 years maybe 4?

to 4GB VRAM - you not specified your
screen resolution (monitor) and also what
type of gamer you are, if "hardcore" & obsessed with graphic or such a casual (play all types games but because of story/fun/etc. not graphic) or CS:GO, LoL, DOTA and so on (3rd type = yes go for lower card).
For 1080p (1920x1080 scrn res.) is r9 390X overkill for now, yes of course. But
why to buy something "slower" nowdays (if hardcore/casual) when there is a new GPU generation around the corner and 144Hz gaming monitors standard or rising 4K and you
have money for it. R9 390X is really more
futureproof and
can be sold for decent price even 2-5 years from now.
In case of GPU, if you do not want/plan to change it every 1-2 year, always buy the best you can.
Or you can be like me and play waiting game for new flagships GPUs with some low-end card like 950... and see if something valuable come or just price of R9 390X / gtx 980Ti drop down
to win10 - no you can NOT trust Microsoft just like you can not google, apple and so on.
It is not about passwords or something like that. It's about personal
informations about you
for "marketing purpose", collecting info about you, installed soft, hardware... shortly. Of course thing with forced updates and fact that win10 is not really on "your HDD" but more virtual if understand. And also think about one thing, why they give it for free at first ? Coz they love us ? Find answer yourself. But I am not that much sceptical how it looks like.
For a regular pc user is not a great deal what is going on. But try to ask someone who is with "both legs in pc world" if curious about that and do what YOU WANT. I am sticking with W7 for at least 1 year...
And ast but not least, IMO, never use MC soft as fresh new because of bugs and bullshit. Wait for it. Take your time and especially grant it to MS
