[QUOTE="monkeylove, post: 952656, member: 19756"] According to some testers in Youtube, it is good enough, together with Kaspersky Security Cloud Free. In general, free versions of Bitdefender, Kaspersky, Sophos, Avast, and AVG are recommended. Given that, you can test for performance impact by using free apps like Novabench (i.e., install the AV, then run the benchmarker several times to see scores; clean uninstall using software provided by the AV developer and in safe mode may be needed to completely remove the AV), then try doing things like browsing the 'net and files (with large numbers of small and large files) to sense the impact.
