Need advice /g/.
My brother is doing his second year in uni and just got his new laptop. For the last 4 years he and I both have had the shittiest dell prebuilts you could get your hands on.
I've since upgraded and i'm more than comfy, but his new laptop somehow managed to be worse than the old ones. It's wicked fucking slow and overflowing with bloat.
I want to help him /g/.
I'm not sure if any of the components can be swapped out, I'll find out eventually, but I want to know if installing linux will make anything better. Currently it's running windows 10. Would installing any distros help his computer run better in terms of freeing up processing power? He's also majoring in music, so will switching OS's make certain music programs unusable? Pls halp.

void gnu/linux will speed things up quite a bit, but yes it will limit which music programs he can use a bit

reinstall windows 7.Install chocolatey and do:
choco install -y mse 7-zip(or winrar) chromium(or firefox) qbittorrent(or transmisson) mpc-hc(or mpv). that's what I basically do for every fresh install. Also be sure to install ublock origin on his browser and tell him not to download/install anything on his computer before asking you first.
