Is Windows 11 really that bad for gaming?I swear all my friends who play esport games fucking hate Win 11 passionately.
Are you autistic enough to play esport games? No? Than it's fine.
Why just for gaming? It's bad in general. It's the OS of a confused investor who wants to stick AI everywhere without first thinking if it's the right place for AI.
it's sending every keystroke to microsoft which probably impacts performance
>>724484847>made at bill gates shithole company for making you upgrade to garbage that doesnt work>shitty win 10 finally works>lol bro upgrade again to broken crap gee i wonder why people are mad>also every time you update or switch os you gotta reinstall everything
>>724484847No one likes Windows 10
>>724484847can jaks die already
>Bitlocker turned on by default without any warning for the user>Most people don't even know what bitlocker isImagine using Windows in 2025
>>724484847>Why don't you like being forced to move to worse and worse operating systems?
Win7 works perfectly fine.
>>724484847>look I posted it again
>>724484847yes, windows just keep getting worseI don't know what this image is trying to prove
it's fine. Just like every other Windows version.
>>724484847After switching to 11 all videos are red tinted. Looked up the issue, other people have it, and it still isn't resolved. Forcing us to switch to 10 meant giving up privacy, but with 11 you get that and an actively shittier experience. If you have issues, you're fucked, that's the end of it.
>>724484847it's win 10 with a few gui changes
>>724485114Windows 10 is bad but can be tolerated, Windows 11 is so bad it feels like your PC has moved to some pajeet slum.
>>724484847Good morning sars.
Everything looks so round and big and pinnable and the task bar mixes dverything together. its like going from a normal tool bench to a fisher price one.
>>724485969Awesome. Now try again without the racism.
>>724486030Indian slow caste neighborhood*.
>>724486030It's easier to make linux work than to make win 11 work
>>724486030Windows 11 is like if a CHINK and JEET made an OS for SPICS and NIGGERS but it was sold by KIKES
>>724485114Unfortunately a lot of people do. You gotta consider that windows 10 lasted for 10 years, there's a decent chunk of /v/ users that have literally never used any other version of windows.
>>724486024A complaint people had about XP funnily enough
>>724486030You can't be racist against an operating system.
blame Linux for not being good enough to compete
>>724486256Good enough for me
>>724484847>Windows 10 finally gets to a point where it's somewhat stable and isn't complete cancer to use.>Windows 11 comes out and it's fucking awful and is getting worse and worse with each update on top of breaking a bunch of PCs.
>>724486292same
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>wojakniggerDidn't read.
>>724484847Win10 improved over time, w11 is just tucked completely to the point fucking notepad has ai in it
>>724486314That's the most frustrating thing of all. 10 had got to a point where it was a decent OS and felt comfortable to use, its no 7 but it sufficed if you knew what you were doing (debloating, etc)Then 11 shits on everything and isn't even remotely redeemable. I've moved to Fedora and haven't looked back.
>>724486256>>724486292I really wish Linux was a viable alternative for me, but after trying it in a dual boot setup, it just doesn't have the compatibility with what I need. Great if you can switch with minimal sacrifice though.
>>724486480What compatibility are you having problems with?
>>724486480what do you need, AAA games or software?
>>724486227XP had themes. If you didn't like default you could just replace it like currently on Linux.
>>724486538>>724486609For one, games with anti-cheatYea I know kernal yada yada I don't like it eitherBut my friends and brother play games with it so I'll suffer with Windows to play games with them.And dual boot was good for a while but whats the point of double dipping OSs at that point, I'd rather fully commit to one. For now at least
>>724485114I don't like itI sure as shit like it more than W11 though.
>>724486809nothing more cringe than reverse searching images on the archive lmao
>>724486030Windows 11 is the new Vista.
>>724484847works fine on my PCt. not an esports monkey
Reminder that the Home edition is so badly-optimized that the minimum requirements are just a bandage for poor coding while the Enterprise version of 11 can run on PCs from 2005:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuyC0y7Ahfg

>>724484847>>724486809>>724486891Sincere question. Why do you come to 4chan just to post wojak shit? What compels you people to do this? No one is angry or seething or think that they're ""getting pwned"". All you're doing is degrading the overall quality of the site and perpetuating that garbage like this is in 4chan culture. I admit that 4chan has always had cancerous garbage, but you are others like you are actively trying to engulf the entirety of this place with it. Why?
>>724487210Its paid demotivation.

>>724484847Windows 10 wasn't that bad for me, after I figured out how to remove telemetry shit. The second I got Windows 11 I ran that Win11Debloat thing and it's not that bad, though it does use a lot of RAM. My previous PC had 8 GB of RAM and didn't use half of it passively. My new Win11 PC has 32GB of RAM and it's usually at 6-8 GB of RAM usage, leaning towards 8.
>>724486136This is just a straight up lie lmao what
>>724486748Ah yeah no real way around that. I get that, I play shit with my cousin and some guys occasionally too and I need windows for some of those, although it's infrequent enough that I dual boot. But if it was regular then I'd probably have a harder time sticking to linux
>>724484847Performance wise it's not bad. And shit just work, the only issue is that it spy on you more than 10
I honestly don't care all that much about the bloatware because I'm and old man who has been modifying Windows for 20 years.No the only thing that I hate about win11 is when an update breaks compatibility.
>>724487501>nothing deleted but thisKek IDF is out in full force ever since Netanyahu's genocide campaign.

>>724487210Wojak posters shadowbox with strawmen and often times even lose to them. It's just a gayop to alleviate their own social standing within the simulacrum. When you notice how fucking kneebish a lot of these online personalities actually are, you start to see through modern meme culture more.
>>724486030Fuck you pajeet
>>724484847windows just keeps getting shittier and shitter, it's so fucking gay. microsoft need to fire everyone, that entire company can't do anything right
>>724484847Things just got worse. I went over to 10 relatively late. Three years later I got told that it's going to be made obsolete. 11 sounds like a privacy nightmare with all the forced telemetry and now AI being shoved through the users' throat. That's not gonna fly.Now I bought a mac mini and my main pc, which consists of old parts and part refreshes, is going in the spare room for a bit until I figure out how Linux works. I also gave up on google chrome. So far apple seems kind of sane, though they have their own aspects of insanity elsewhere.
>>724486878No, that's not fair. Vista was great, but it was running on hardware that it had no business running on because of manufacturers being retards. 11 is so bad it fucks up good hardware.
>>724487454It takes less than 2 days to set up linux.It takes at least 2 days to set up win 11.Installing 20 programs to make the system work is terrible when all of those programs have to run in the background and eat resources.
>>724486030KILL YOURSELF NIGGERJEET
>>724487945Windows is better than ever though.
I have a clean win11pro install and it is fine. needed like 2hours to make it look like win10 and disable the shit I can.

>>724488493You’re right but nobody said that. it represents Kamala Harris. Is that really something you want to stand behind, anon? A symbol of injustice and inequality?
>>724484847But I didn't install Windows 10, so I don't care that it's leaving.
>>724487210Imagine being at a community center where just about anything goes as long as your not breaking any established rules. Then in comes a man who just shat his pants and is going around smear it on the walls and people as much as he can with insane glee from all the reactions and chaos his causing.Thats your average wojak poster, they derive immense pleasure from shitting up threads and doing anything unhinged that will get a reaction out of people or just feed their various mental ill derived tendencies.Honest to god psychos or just attention seeking retards.
>>724489183>forgets windows 8 existed >forgets windows 8.1 existed The only conceivable reason that someone would remember that either of these existed was because they got a laptop preloaded with it and never installed a different OS, there was never a reason to switch off of 7.8 is garbage, so too is 10 and 11, the Windows cycle is over.
>>724486030Shut the fuck up you seething effeminate faggot. Streetshitters need to all be killed to the last man woman and child, right after the yids.
Windows 11 is actually worse than Vista. It is genuinely so fucking bad I regret switching to it every day.
>>724485249this guy is right
>oosu10>winaerotweak>startallbackIt can become....bearable.
>>724486030NIGGER
>>724484847>>724485114This. Windows 10 is just shitty 7, but hardware manufacturers conspired with Microsoft to stop making drivers for 7.When that happens for 10, I'm just going to figure out Linux or get a fucking Mac if I'm desperate enough. 11 is jeeted beyond repair.
>>724490752Win7 didn't have UWP bloat little zoomie and the style was actually appealing instead of corpo alop
If you use 11 don't be surprised if one day a folio arrives on your doorstep postmarked Tel Aviv blackmailing you if you don't pull a Black Mirror's Shut Up and Dance and pretend to shoot Charlie Kirb or the next judeo dissident.
>>724489998>mandatory update pushed>all your shit gets reset to "acceptable defaults">your tweaks no longer work because they were "patched vulnerabilities"You already can't fully disable updates in 11. They're working on forcing you to use a microsoft account that will not allow you to log in without an internet connection.You are fucked on 11.
>>724485114There's a wide gap between "liking windows 10" and "tolerating windows 10" just because 11 is so absolutely dogshit.I was really hyped when I say ms was going to release a new Windows. "The nightmare is finallly over" I naively thought. Welp, I have no faith in anything anymore.
>>724490882Not sure what that has to do with my post but cool.I liked 7 and miss it every day.
>>724491042>You already can't fully disable updates in 11Skill issue. Just set it to metered internet.
If you have a real reason to use Windows like Adobe that's cool but if you don't it's cringe not to switch to Loonix. Filtered by an OS? kek

Here's the hot fucking news flash: new OS is always "bad" for gaming WHEN IT FIRST RELEASES because of driver incompatibility/instability issues and similar bullshit. Flash forward 1 year and all that trash has been ironed out and the only people have OS specific issues are oldfags trying to run Windows XP era shit that they refuse to let go of. Win 11 as of now has fuck all issues with any normal game.When windows 12 (or whatever) comes out DO NOT FUCKING TOUCH IT until after 1 year of it's release. Then it's fine. Rinse repeat for fucking infinity./thread
>>724484847Switched to Linux as of yesterday.Every game I own runs without compatibility issues, including multi-player, and everything loads significantly faster.I'm convinced that everything bad I've ever heard about Linux was spouted by paid Microsoft shills.

It never happened when she was playing on a computer with 10 or on an xbox. She plays it through EA's launcher. Any ideas?I'll ask /g/ if the thread dies.

>>724497407Check its history, see if it somehow got triggered by EA Launcher or the game and decided to quarentine the save files.I don't believe a competent antivirus would do such thing to a competent game launcher, but we're talking about EA and a new laptop might come with some garbage antivirus like McAfee.
>>724484847Windows 7 was better than Windows 10. Windows 10 is better than Windows 11. In 2020 you wouldn't want to downgrade. In 2025 you don't want to downgrade. These ideas aren't contradictory.

In fact I can't even tell outside of the AI icon appearing in programs it has no business being in like notepad or paint. That said the out of the box experience is a horror show, I bought a new laptop that came with win11 and during the whole setup process I was in utter disbelief at how bad things have gotten, I imagine the average normgroid is too tech illiterate to circumvent or remove all the bullshit which is why everyone is acting like they are being forced to inject themselves with Nadella's 5G powered AI enhanced microjeet nanobots.

Another thread about shitting on Linux while you get spitroasted by Microsoft executives, huh?
>>724500476Q40S is good, but it’s a lightweight distributor. It’s comparable to Mint Xfce.
It isn't about the performance unto itself, but a lot of retarded shit like locking intel e/p cores behind it, basically running all apps inside virtual machines at release tanking performance by 30%, the constants bugs due to zero QA, the spyware, the main menu taking 30 seconds to load, half the UI being a browser window, ads in system apps, onedrive pushed down your throat, recall being enabled by default and being unprotected at launch, the forcing to buy a new puter with tpm 2.0, breaking 20 things last week, shoving AI down your arse, the fact that vidya now forces kernel level anti cheat, secure boot, tpm 2.0, Microsoft Pluto chips and other shit to end up having lobbies filled with cheaters, the s0 sleep that wakes your puter to install updates, forcing you to install updates even if you have shit open and unsaved, etc.Probably missing some shit since I'm quite a bit out the loop since I haven't used wangblows in like 10 years.
>>724500743I'm speaking from my experience using work computers that have W11 installed by defaultI'd never install that shit on my PC
>>724493837Linux Mint is good. I replaced W10 with it on my PC, install was a breeze, PC feels even more reactive, and games just work.My only gripe with it is that it doesn’t create a separate partition for /home by default.
>>724484847>Is Windows 11 really that bad for gaming?Windows 11 isn't bad "for gaming." It's bad for your personal use of your own fucking computer hardware. I installed it on my laptop when the updates for 10 expired, and I want to throw my lappy through a fucking brick wall. It's the most obnoxious fucking OS ever created, and boy is that saying something. There are some absolute dogshit OS's throughout history, and 11 takes the cake.

>>724484847Why is it impossible to find a proper source for disabling the W11 telemetry and AI?

>>724503791>>724503361Most wifi 7 devices have drivers for 10 and they work just fine. The only limiting factor is that you can't access 6ghz bands from win10, but you can use 2.4 and 5 just fine.
>>724484847its shit for everything
>>724486292That is precisely the problem. It's good for people who're used to it. One can get used to anything.That's not a good quality for a general purpose OS.Linux is a crutch strapped to an engine block, an engine block strapped to a crutch, it is to systems what current day milsims are to the strategy genre.No matter how many superstructures are built on it, Linux's messy nature can be intuitively recognized even in Android out of all places.Windows may be proprietary up its own ass (not even a problem, really, unlike spying), and have all sorts of issues even before 2000s, but it is at least somewhat designed for humans. Even though it only barely approximates a full "out of the box" solution, its standardization is humane. It's an actual OS.Linux is a glorified toy for computationally disenfranchised vagrants who have nothing better to do than to engage in explicitly useless and non-innovative programming exercises, like an orchestra that makes music only rarely and mostly incidentally, because at least someone had thought to make instruments.Incapable of order, incapable of chaos, but still shambling about meaninglessly.

>>724501798they are.
>>724493294Pretty much yeahI grew up with Windows XP and I've had as many, if not fewer issues on Linux than I ever had with that OS.Will you have to figure some shit out? Yes. Still, games will run better, theres no privacy issues, no forced cloud, no forced updates etc.
>>724500469If you're an underage faggot who's never grown up with an actual, decent, optimized OS then sure - you get used to the taste of eating shit everyday.The rest of humanity can tell that Win11 is a horribly optimized piece of garbage that breaks with every new update because they have a mix of jeets and LLMs writing the code.
>>724511796They do that, and the result is fedora. However, there were once some absolute fucking retards who made debian, which has caused every problem.
>>724511796>imagine if they pulled all that effort to make a single good oneMint is good.>hurr durr but I said SINGLE good oneI don't care. The others being bad is not a prerequisite for using Mint. There can be more than one good one.>they're all either forks of Arch or Debian anywayThen why are you complaining about there being too many?
Oh and before anyone says "no, it's not good":Works on my machine, Q.E.D.
>>724515385I can guarantee that Mint is in fact not working on your machine. It is a debian fork twice removed. You just don't understand that it's broken.
>>724515729I run games on it though.
>>724511796I think every distro that is not Arch is bad. What would I use if Arch no longer existed? Clearly Arch isn't suitable for every single Linux user, and if there was a single good distro it would have to be suitable for every single user. Like Windows 11.

>>724518528>Windows 2000It wasn't a consumer version of windows.So it doesn't really count as Microsoft gives consumers the short end while other businesses the long end.
>>724484847It's just full of bloatware, ads, AI and telemetry. While still running on the same exact win10 base.

Windows is not some perfectly intuitive operating system, you just think that because you've been using it since before your balls dropped.
>>724484847It's identical to 10. The only difference in performance may come from the fact that some security features are enabled by default in 11 while in 10 they're disabled.

>>724521315The problem is that such a consumer's take on things cannot be used as a standard for interpreting any OS, or worse, become an unstated community standard among builders, because it's a systemically poor approach to infrastructure making, both from an economic point of view, and within future and utility considerations.Since Linux is inadequate in fine details, but is positioned as a de-facto contender to the only other major PC system, it has made a community that is too used to a certain lackadaisical and disorganized conduct that is incompatible with such big endeavours.This "used to" problem applies to Windows too, but M$ never made any pretenses about anything that I recall, and generally held to some standards until they went past 7.When you buy M$ you expect a product, it's proprietary.Linux is a project that at once too whimsical, but also prevents other alternatives by existing.And while people that can make such big projects are rare regardless of any cultural disposition, the associated cultural sphere of Linux et al does take some wind from sails.tl;dr bad cultural effects on imagination, lack of discipline and long term effects of design selection, e.g. Babbage vs Thomas Fowler

>>724529592Mint is good for beginner linux newbies who need a gui and need gui apps but eventually you realize the terminal is always superior so eventually you move to arch.Also mint makes changes without your permission like updating the theme colors of the desktop when you don't want them to or using nemo file manager which is the slowest file manager on linux, even slower than nautilus despite it being a fork I think, it takes like a solid .5 second to load a folder in nemo.

Normies think the OS is an integral part of the computer itself. They do not comprehend the idea of reinstalling the system at all. They think AVs are like an immune system and that you can "fix" broken or compromised systems, they don't even think of simple redeployments.They will never understand that Windows or Linux or whatever is broken. It'll always he "my computer is broken". Most DIY people are just slightly less retarded and their expertise ends at installing Windows and troubleshooting common issues with step by step tutorials. You will never convert them because you're hurting their pride by forcing them to learn something new.What you'll see is there being less and less desktop users until it's exclusive to power users and creators while normoids will only be allowed to have phones.

>>724545163On Mint you have to use flatpak Steam or games will not work because of ancient dependencies. And flatpak Steam isn't official, it's packaged by some literal whos. If you're relying on flatpaks so much you're better off with an immutable distro in the first place.
>>724549274It's even worse. It just spams an entire one core to almost 100% for a moment even on a modern CPU like Zen 5 or Arrow Lake. Even on Enterprise versions with ads and telemetry disabled. And the worst part is that XAML is written in C++ and C# so it doesn't even have the excuse of being JS shit. It's just pure unfiltered jeetcode.
>>724549514yeah i'm not really sure why mint is still getting recommended. it's only fine if you only want to do desktop work and you think windows 7 is the pinnacle of systems.sticking to gnome 2 was cute in 2015, but nobody's updating gnome 2, so you're stuck with old ass design philosophies and old software that lacks modern features like HDR or fucking wayland.
