[QUOTE="Bikeman0I17, post: 812668, member: 66185"] Just Resumed Using WD on my Intel I7 7700 Desktop with 16gb of ram, Nvidia Geforce 1050, and Western SSD/and WD Black 1TB Storage drive, system performance to me seems as fast as when I was using Avast Free on the system, sure scan time is a little slow, but I normally start that, watch a Netflix movie while it does it, and usually done by time movie over in my experience so far. Usually Remove 3rd Party Avs prior to Windows Feature updates then decide if i wanna resume using my 3rd party Av, Avast Free or not, not so sure this time around, as performance doesn't seem bad with it thus far, but will see once 1903 is out, and how system is after that i guess Don't have a folder with a lot of exe's, Mostly game, watch some youtube, sometimes rip audio cd's at times, nothing too heavy use really, stream music with Spotify as well most days, usually browse the same sites daily. Malwarebytes Free scan once a month--Full Threat custom scan, so far nothing found which is a good sign I think [/QUOTE]
