    Hello,
    Now just out of curiosity, why would you want to do that?
    IMHO windows 10 is a poor excuse of an OS, and I believe you are able to use Windows 7 with your configuration. I can't use Windows 7 due to Maxwell/ UEFI incompatibility with my configuration.
    Anyways, you'll need to disable DSE and a modded driver for windows 10.
    Take a look here:
