Windows 11, a completely new experience. On your completely new PC.
Win 10 will be supported until 2025, so you can continue to use this for a while.

An older PC will not do anymore for Win 11 coming out in october 2021. When your PC does not have a 7th generation CPU and UEFI mainboard with a tpm 'trusted platform module' chip, you will not be able to run it.
You can easily check your PC by typing "tpm.msc" in the command line – if none can be found your pc will be obsolete for Win 11.
Any PC/Laptop bought after 2023 with Win 11 will also have to have a 720 dpi camera onboard for face recognition to unlock your PC, along with some other requirements.

An older article, things have again changed since:

This coming at a time where processor and electronics prices are reaching the moon..
