I don’t know what Steinberg are saying about MB/CPU and windows 10 ? There was the well known issue with multicore and cubase pre v10
lots of threads and info about that
Currently SB do say this about their own software:
and they also say this:
theverge article you linked also doesn’t contradict what I wrote ? In fact it suggests you MUST run win10 on some modern hardware
you didn’t say what CPU/mobo you were using but if it’s capable of running a modern DAW then it’s capable of running windows 10
you asked a question I answered - and gave you good advice IMO - that’s me done
no problem (for me!) if you don’t believe me
