After a long time with the engineer to find a solution to the problem, he sended to me an updated drivers that, now, control the spindle speed by the gcode command and the slider into the software

Yes my CNC is working good it's a 3040 with 800w spindle(watercooled) with 4 axis.
I have the XHC Mk4 mach4 USB motherboard.
here is my CNC:


I'm working on windows 10 and windows 8.
Except the fact that it came with a "hacked" version of Mach3 I will say that it's a good product.
For a new computer to pilot your cnc you don't need to buy a big one(I mean 8 cores with 32 Go memory etc ...), a simple one is able to pilot the CNC, but you will need a power one to calculate the Gcode if you are doing complex milling(with a lot of path) or else the calculating time will be longer (of course).
