Yes, I'll upgrade if MS allows windows updates on computers that are non TPM 2.O and older i5-6600 processors. If they don't, adios, I'll stick to Windows 10 20H2
No, just if I'm forced like I was with Windows 10 + DX12 + support for some games. And not before at least one Windows 11 feature update comes out as the first versions and with the first updates Windows always has a lot of problems. But seriously thinking about playing the games I want that only run on Win10 and then downgrade to Windows 8.1
I want to hear about the OS and inner workings of 11 . What has changed and stuff but most just want to talk about how it looks. And yes I have 2 systems at work on Win 11 and my home sys on Win 11 .. funny because I stayed away from 10 for as long as I could and now comes the chance to move past it hehe
maybe.. if the trick to install on mbr without tpm still works ill upgrade.. if not, w10 + linux for the win.. and then, in a few months, linux for the win and fck microsoft..
This report here claims there's some scheduler changes: W10 (19041 with the Ryzen scheduler fixes) on my 2700X has scored lower with Geekbench than Linux at least since December last year when I got it, so I'm curious to see if this has been finally fixed up enough in W11, assuming W11 ever gets the L3 cache performance fixed.
They seem to have been working on it for a while because there was an insider preview build of Windows 10 back in December 2020 that had removed the artificial NUMA but then it was reintroduced in the next build. I'm still trying to find documentation on what Hyper-V 10.0 configuration version means for VMs, but seems there's still much in the Windows 11 core yet to be documented publicly by Microsoft. It's definitely not just a UI overhaul release
I'll be on Windows 7 until the ESU program ends then I'll move to the most recent Windows 10 LTSC and run that until its life support gets turned off. I'll have to re-evaluate my options after that.
will only upgrade if; 1. there are install workarounds on release. i don't want to use uefi, tpm, secure boot or gpt. 2. they improve the taskbar and add back the missing features.
I will as it works great on my laptop as well as meeting all the new hardware requirements, it's been my primary OS every since initial leaked release. The features for the taskbar are still there but you have to add keys to the registry to get the desired feature. I hope Microsoft puts the button back in to the personalize menu to allow you to make these desired taskbar feature changes more easily without having to muck with the Windows Registry. Other then that Windows 11 is starting to appear as a rock solid OS, but in that being said every Operating system that has ever been made was flaky or glitchy in the initial development stage, that's why its called development or beta. UEFI and Secure Boot are becoming a standard and those who choose to fall behind in technology will remain behind. Floppies to CD's, zip drives to hard drives to solid state it doesn't matter.
I don't think win 11 is a critical OS to be upgrading no different then 10 just gui mess up no proven better benchmarks not faster then 10 I think MS will realize such a big mistake they made down the next year
I'm with you brother except that I'm on 8.1. I might give the new LTSC a try and then decide if I want to stick with 8.1 or 2022 LTSC. Even if I do, Windows 10 will probably be my last OS.
The UI changes like hiding the right click menu genuinely piss me off so unless there's performance benefits to using Windows 11 I doubt I will upgrade....
Windows 7 was great and then came the pos Windows 8. Windows 10 is not perfect, but is pretty decent. Windows 11 reminds me more and more of Windows 8, in that it is half baked, very buggy, and is not ready for prime time. There are so many design changes that just don’t make sense, just like Windows 8.
L3 cache is fixed on Ryzen, and Oculus Link works on 22449.1000. Now that nothing is seemingly holding me back, I think I can give switching to W11 a go in earnest Edit: That didn't last long. Apps worked fine, but everything just overall felt a tiny bit slower even with the L3 cache fix. I'll likely revisit W11 once it releases.
I agree, if they fix the taskbar (enable back small icons and able to get rid of the date), taskbar is too high as is.. also when the bring back all the features that were taken out... also if there is way to get rid of the 'recommended section' - it drives me nuts... among other things...it seems customization was takes away....
