Windows 10 or Windows 11 for gaming?

[Bubbaloo - Reusable P Cup 2996]

Pros? 
Cons?

Any improvements in gaming performance?

Windows 10 is more stable.  Personally I would stick with 10 at the moment.  With windows 11 I had a weird issue where after every restart I would loose my audio settings. They may of fixed the issue by now.

TLDR stick with 10 unless you are fine with bugs here and there. You can always upgrade to 11 from 10, but not 11 to 10

To be fair he had this problem over a year ago. I know many people that have switched to Windows 11 and like it. Most major bugs that I would see online have been resolved. I plan on switching soon. I think @ Doc just switched.

There's isn't a major framework leap like there was between 8 and 10.  The two are basically identical aside from GUI based differences.

I use windows 11 on my laptop and windows 10 on my main pc. Basically 0 difference.

I got 11 on my gaming laptop, and 10 on my desktop. I do prefer 10 still but that may just be because I’m used to it. Realistically not that many major differences, I would probably ride out windows 10 until you can’t anymore.

Fun fact cnc machinery runs off of like windows 99 or some shit lol. so your fancy custom milled parts are made by dinos

Windows 11 is a major step back, they've dumbed down the settings so it's harder for powerusers to fiddle with the settings properly. There's still duplicated settings as in Windows 10. Windows 11 basically requires you to have the .cpl shortcuts in a folder on your desktop to access the proper settings (ike mmsys.cpl).

I think Windows 11 has better support for WSL which means Linux is useless in 2023 though.

No problems with windows 11. May as well get used to it now before 10 goes EOL in October 2025

Nah you rarely need to terminal nowadays after you're all set up if you're running something like Mint
