Original Question:
Hey Folks!
Been a long time, as my Hack has been flawless since building it and running updates.
But the time has come to move to Big Sur - I have software that is no longer supporting or running on 10.13
Just picked up a MSI AMD Radeon RX 580 Armour in preparation for the swap but I have a question...
What's the best advice - do a fresh install from the beginning or do an update via the App Store?
Cheers and many thanks in advance.
