I saw an article (can't seem to find it now, it was awhile back around Christmas time), that said Windows 11 was problematic for gamers, and that it had issues with some graphics cards and games, so I have been putting the upgrade off. Has anyone seen anything similiar? [Reply]

I think there was an AMD related issue early on that's been fixed. [Reply]

I agree.
In an enterprise environment they are essential and you're dangerously behind the curve if TPM hasn't been implemented at this point. However, I think the requirement for TPM on home PCs to run the latest operating system is a bit overkill at best and at worst a means to pull revenue into the segment of the market which will benefit.
Factors to take into consideration is what your home PC is used for obviously but for your average Joe I think it's overkill.

I'm running Nvidia, and have had no issues. Actually, a few of the latest NVidia drivers have been buggy shitty messes that have given me some issues. But it's the NVidia drivers not the OS, because the same driver issues are happening in Win10 too. [Reply]

Thanks for the info. I am running a 3060TI on my rig with no issues with WIN10 Pro....so I may consider doing the upgrade the next time it pops up....although it is running well so I might not mess with a good thing. [Reply]

There isn’t much point to upgrade to windows 11 for home PCs and adoption rate has been super slow when compared to windows 10 (mainly because Microsoft isn’t just giving it away. [Reply]
One reason to have a MS account is that your keys become linked to that account. When you upgrade your computer, you can simply access that account and let MS know that you have upgraded.
My systems are old; they ran XP, 7 and now 10. No TPM available for Phenom II processors w/DDR2 memory. Thinking Ryzen 5600X, new motherboard, memory and SSD would be a nice upgrade however the next generation is going to need a new motherboard. Graphics cards are still overpriced so I'll stick with the RX580. [Reply]
