My upgrade to Windows 11 took about 20 mins. No big deal
I have been playing New World and it's performance has been the same or just a little better than Windows 10 for me. No major problems here

It's so weird how they "forgot" to add dark mode to a lot of their settings menus. And how some of the deeper layered settings menu still look straight out of w98 with those goofy oldschool icons and whatnot. And task manager looks identical to W10, sans the curved edges.
It's just visuals that strike me as odd, performance of the system is rock solid so far and feels faster than W10. Also less RAM in usage.

8 Hours no crash so far, laptop on silent mode with 0 RPM fans at the moment and running integrated GPU while I'm working on non 3d stuff. Going to stress test and see how long I can go without a reboot.
Gsync seems to be working - at least it seems to pass the nvidia pendulum demo. Can't say much about performance yet but will get to it when I get more time.
So far it really has been just annoying figuring out where they moved everything. The cleanup on the UI side feels nice, but I feel like have absolutely no idea where anything is anymore.

I have the samsung galaxy book
12 GB DDR4 RAM
512 GB NVMe SSD
Intel i7-1065G7 @ 1.50Ghz with IGPU
S-Pen
Upgraded from windows 10 to 11 and noticed much better battery life (lasts longer). When samsung updates its own firmware for windows 11, i am thinking even better battery life

What the fuck is that centered shit?! Can i put the old skin with the start on the left?!How does Windows 11 compare to MacOS? I dont have mac, but supposedly it looks very similar,..kind of..

I have both and aside from the Dock, is not really similar. It feels more like some Linux distro where macOS and Windows fans contribute to the development. I am so far....really unsure how I see W11.How does Windows 11 compare to MacOS? I dont have mac, but supposedly it looks very similar,..kind of..
The new icons looks really ugly in my opinion.

Using the 'Create Windows 11 installation media' tool to make a bootable USB you can do a clean install if your CPU is the only thing that doesn't meet the requirement. You'll get updates and no need to disable Secure Boot.
Just got done with my laptop which has a i7-6700HQ. My laptop has TPM 2.0 and everything else is above the requirements.

PrimoCache works in Windows 11 without a problem. I love this OS. I just hope they don't enable VBS by default because Windows crashes after enabling during restart.

Imo, on big monitors having everything centered if much more ergo. Don't have to look at the far out corner.

I've really grown to prefer it being in the center.

You can't click on things as easily without looking with it having a moving center target. I can always just move my mouse all the way to the bottom left to open Start without having to look. I can click the bottom right to go to desktop without having to look.

But once the windows menu comes up you have to look in the corner. Now it’s right there where the action is most of the time.
I notice this the most when switching instantly from Mac OS to Win 10.

Yeah I really like it as well. In retrospect it's kinda amazing they didn't do this sooner.
Takes some time to unlearn like 25+ years of muscle memory.

Wait for a few service packs if you value productivity.
Windows 11: Boomer Edition
- Multi monitor support is garbage
- Clock only appears on the main monitor
- Want to move your task bar around?
- regedit (doing that breaks stock features)
- Want to change Icon size?
- regedit
- Can't drag and drop shortcuts to the task bar
- Can't drag object on to app to open

Matter of taste, i use my pc with a 55" oled and i don't see any reason to switch to centered stuff any time soon.
Also the thing that bigpooper said.

Yea I tried updating my gfx card (2070 super) but there was no update.
I did manage to just find the install on windows site and manage to work around downloading the win 11 file.
The loader said computer good to go and it all worked out. Gotta love new releases.
So pretty much the stuff I hated in the beta stayed the same; guess I'm not upgrading!

Just upgraded my brother's laptop. It has no TPM so I did a registry hack to bypass the requirement during windows install. It has an AMD A8 APU quad-core and 8GB's of RAM.
So far everything is working and it's getting updates. All the necessary drivers are installed and are working. Seems like Microsoft is allowing this since they posted a way to bypass the TPM requirement with a registry hack tutorial.

You might need to get a TPM module. If you can, instead of ebay there's websites that pretty much sell them at regular price but there's a waiting line for them to be in stock and shipped. You just gotta find those websites.

X570 and 3700x here.
the health checker and windows update said I need TPM 2.0.
I have x570/3700x so I enabled fTPM . DO I need to do anything else? what about TSME? I think it is switched to auto. I have no idea what it is though.
So now health checker says it's OK but windows update still says it's not. Maybe I need to login with microsoft account...

You might need to disable CSM and enable secure boot. That's what I had to do on my ASrock x570.

Same with mine.
Will wait a bit before I update my stationary PC. But I like it on the laptop already.

I am always using CSM disabled for few years now. It just boots "better" and faster. Not sure about enable secure boot... what is that

I see what you did there... using Bing as the search engine. Very Nice!

I've been using Bing for the last year. Got fed up with Google. Bing is better for searching Microsoft OS related problems anyway since it's Microsoft's search engine.

Cant install it. Goes up to 64 %, then disappears, then comes back at 71 % and after that it tells me something went wrong.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
My PC is not quite 3 years old. No TPM, and an unsupported AMD processor. Fun stuff.
GPU acceleration seems to be working for Windows Sandbox now(?) least it's showing up under task manager as utilizing the GPU. Still a bit of studder/drop when running it with the Microsoft Sandbox but I suspect that may be due to me turning on that Memory Integrity feature on top of that.
on Win10 GPU acceleration with the Microsoft Sandbox never quite worked correctly, and would sometimes bluescreen with a scheduler error on the setup I've been using.
Tested Oculus Quest + VR Desktop - seems to connect just like normal after a streamer update on the desktop side. Had to stop because my controllers were running out of batteries though.
My laptop survived 24 hours uptime or so, but had to reboot when the fingerprint reader stopped logging in ( which was also an issue on Win10 for me). Not too much to complain about.

That's Windows for you. Windows is like an old house with layers of paint on the wall to keep it from looking as dated, and yet when you bump and scratch beyond the surface you see all the old shit that just clashes with the new stuff. At this point you'd think they'd scrape off all the layers and revisit all the old shit with the new hardware requirements they impose. I wish they would focus on making their OS feel like a solid consistent piece through-and-through, and maybe that truly starts after this release now that there is a significant hardware split?

I was using Win 11 a week or two ago and got stuck in a blue screen loop (but it was green?) trying to DDU gpu drivers. I also hated the start menu. I think I'll just wait until Linux becomes more useable before changing OSs again.
