will 11 give better performance for those cards? if it was appreciable, that would be a reason to upgrade, maybe.waiting for the first rtx io benchmarks
Win 11 will be the only OS to have direct IO, and we dont yet know what it will do to real world performance.will 11 give better performance for those cards? if it was appreciable, that would be a reason to upgrade, maybe.
oh, nice, will be interesting to see it in use.Win 11 will be the only OS to have direct IO, and we dont yet know what it will do to real world performance.
Is directstorage working with preview builds?
I am not a game engine programmer, just do some work with python so take my reply with a pinch of salt but Windows 11 is the only Windows os with DirectStorage support and therefore rtx io. In terms of real world performance, windows 11 will probably have significantly increased loading speeds as I can see that being more easily updated on the engine side but not sure about general performance. Feels like that would need more work in terms of engine.will 11 give better performance for those cards? if it was appreciable, that would be a reason to upgrade, maybe.
Would be referring to artificial benchmarks at this point in development of windows 10No games support this so even if it works...
Yeah but is there a way to benchmark it?No games support this so even if it works...
It is the only reason for gamers to upgrade really.oh, nice, will be interesting to see it in use.
Windows 11 has been revealed to the world. What's new, and what does it mean for PC gaming?
a) All laptops have webcams. Just think about that for a few seconds. b) This is most like just to ensure full compatibility with Windows Hello functionality - on paper (because of "a)" it's already in place in practice).
The somewhat niche/internet popular Zephyrus G14 doesn't have a built in webcam. Nor do quite a lot of Zephyrus models of late - they sold them as optional USB accessories. Of note Asus does have the capability to use an app hat links your phone as your PC webcam - a phone which typically is a far more competent camera than the tiny built in ones typlically shoehorned in.a) All laptops have webcams.

I'm all for consumer rights, but this is seriously low hanging fruit for the urinalists to drum up an issue over a non-issue (by inferring the notion that W11 requires users to have their cams on while using W11, which is ridiculous FUD).
Informative and enjoyable to read, easy to respect opinions.. You sir are an excellent poster.The somewhat niche/internet popular Zephyrus G14 doesn't have a built in webcam.

Though of note, the G14 2021 model has a fingerprint sensor which does currently work on Windows 10, and is recognized by Windows Hello as a sign in device. The interesting thing about it is that it seems to swipe your finger during power up and logs you in once Windows has finished initial startup/boot.
The only Windows Hello camera I've played with was built in on an HP Spectre, and it wasn't just a standard webcam - it was actually an IR webcam (someone more technically inclined can fill in the details here). In the past there were only a select number of laptops with IR enabled advertised as "Windows Hello" enabled laptops.
Granted this only apply to recent models. Asus probably adjust going forward by 2023, though I'm more inclined to use the fingerprint reader built into the power button on some models over a Windows Hello IR webcam that can take a while longer to read your face.
Reading between the lines with my tin foil hat on I'm inclined to think this is all to pave the way for Microsoft's password-less future. Biometrics for everything login related, 2fa being a simple app prompt yes or no on phones.
All your icons are giving me anxiety, lol. But how does it run so far? I thought about making the switch, but decided I'll just wait until the official launch and what people are saying in the beta.I don't know what to think, it looks nice i guess
So let's start this experiment
True, but that's exactly what they want to change.I am worried over the TPM 2.0 requirement. Not even some modern motherboards support it.
rtx 2000 series are also dx12 ultimate capable, just a fyi
1 tb requirement is weird.. dunno what is their intent
ye that's strange. I get that it needs to be nvme, but why 1TB... maybe they are planning to bring quick resume to Windows as well?
1 tb requirement is already delistedMy best guess? It's likely that they want a little padding for Windows Updates and other crap filling up the main drive.
I can tell from my own experience with my old 512gb SSD drive, and a Windows installation that has been running since 2014 without any reinstalls, that I had to purge the Windows Update cache multiple times in the past as I ran out of space. However, they did mention that Windows updates are likely to take up less space with Windows 11.. so who knows.
i don't think it's anything to do with the capacity. W11 needs 64GB storage so any caching/suspending of files will be part of the OS partition. Windows isn't gonna need 1TB.rtx 2000 series are also dx12 ultimate capable, just a fyi

all i can suggest is going into bios to disable then re enable the setting for dynamic clocks. it might be called "Cool & Quiet". i dont have an AMD cpu so had to google it. On intel it's Speedshift. Also it's likely it could be a driver issue. Make sure your chipset driver is up to date.A few issues I am facing with the preview build. Can someone help out?-
1. The CPU is not going power saving mode properly (5600x). Earlier it used to go as low as 1.7GHz. Now its stuck at ~3.6GHz. Even if power saving mode is selected.
2. Task manager isnt working properly. Hangs and also isnt showing internet usage in performance tab.

same for your internet...disable your wifi or ethernet adapter and turn it back on. again make sure your wifi/ethernet driver is up to date.

Can you run 3dmark

Got the Windows Insider build of 11 installed yesterday. Overall it's mostly just Windows 10 with a fresh coat of paint.
this.Even if you have recommended items turned off in Settings, it takes up a large amount of space in the start menu where they would be if it was turned on with a message about it being turned off...

If DirectStorage API is not implemented in games, there's no reason to change unless we get better performance.
Terminal app was already on W10, could be installed from the store.Got the Windows Insider build of 11 installed yesterday. Overall it's mostly just Windows 10 with a fresh coat of paint.
I like the unified "Windows Terminal" for Powershell\Command Prompt\Azure Cloud Shell with tabs and stuff. They are clearly going all in with moving more stuff to the Settings app.
Control Panel is still present at least.
The new start menu feels like a step backwards. You can't group icons into a single group icon in the start menu now and it seems you can't have more than 18 pinned icons in the start menu. Even if you have recommended items turned off in Settings, it takes up a large amount of space in the start menu where they would be if it was turned on with a message about it being turned off...
The newish feature where you can click hover over re-size button in a window to tell it to pop to a certain size & location works for some windows and not others. Worked in O365 Apps, but not in Teams or Firefox\Chrome.
