a couple of days ago i got a message from a friend and they said brian you gotta check out windows 11
and i'm scratching my head thinking windows 11. i haven't even heard about this
and sure enough i went to research what had happened and someone had leaked the developer's
copy of windows 11 on the web and i knew this was legit when i got a link to download it
and the link had been taken down so microsoft isn't going to go around and take down links
if that wasn't the legit thing anyway we ended up getting a copy and we ended up trying to install
it and this is where the problems did start to happen where you will need a tpm 2.0 module
on your motherboard or you will either need tpm on the amd side of things which you can activate in
the bios via the option there with the cpu once either of these two conditions are met you can
then start to install windows 11 and i gotta admit first impressions are really good it looks like
a windows 10.1 sort of thing but the performance feels like it's really good it almost feels like
this developer copy of windows 11 has all the crap or most of the crap taken away from the
get-go which is why i'm going to be recommending if people can get on this copy as soon as they can
then they do that another thing as well is it looks like windows 7 windows 8.1 and windows
10 pro keys they do work absolutely fine on this copy of windows 11 however if you guys want to see
a full installation tutorial on how to install windows 11 do let us know in the comments section
below but in today's video we are going to be looking at the windows 10 versus windows 11
gaming performance and seeing how that stacks up and whether you should think about upgrading
to this os let's get on to it right after this sponsor spot do you feel like this when you see
this well if so you can get rid of that windows activation message with today's video sponsor scd
keys for as little as 12 usd after you use that coupon bftyc you can get activated today links in
description below so the testbed that i decided to use here today was a 5950x from amd and this is on
the asrock phantom gaming x motherboard with the 6800 xt taichi now the games that we're testing
here we're going to drop them down to 1080p lower settings to really work that cpu and get the
most fps possible and what i found here was with windows 10 we'll pull up here first of all f1 2020
was that we're getting 480 average fps and the one percent and 0.1 lows were also really good too
and then we stepped over to windows 11 and we were getting slightly higher fps it'd be to the tune of
around five percent more fps which was looking very promising and even though the os's do feel
similar we'll pull up the next example here that shadow of the tomb raider where i'll show you
guys when i got to the end of the benchmark it actually shows it as windows 10 as another build
so as i was saying in the intro it does look like windows 11 is actually based off of windows 10 but
it's just a re-skin and also the features are pretty cool but that being said i believe this
extra performance that you're seeing here in today's video could be due to the fact
that it is a bit of a lighter weight version from the get-go as i did test on a windows 10
default copy so i just reinstalled both windows 10 and windows 11 for this video and what we can see
with shadow the tomb raider was a very impressive result on windows 11. i haven't actually seen my
fps this high in shadow of the tomb raider before we got an average fps on this benchmark of 223 and
then the minimum fps was 147 and then on windows 10 we got 212 fps and a very similar minimum score
moving things over to fortnite this is the new update where you can fly ufos and i gotta say
flying the ufos was actually pretty fun while i was benchmarking this i was like
you can fly a ufo i was like cool so i started flying ufos i actually want to battle royale
as the tech yes man do you know even if it's again bots i'll take that victory and we got here 468
fps on windows 11 versus 455 on windows 10 but on both these examples that i'm showing up here today
it's almost like the fps was just too high it's breaking this engine where the 1 and
0.1 lows were just actually really bad so i wouldn't recommend taking your fps this high on
fortnite especially this new alien update where i have seen a lot better numbers in the past on
those one percent and 0.1 percent lows now moving over to the final title we decided to test here
and this was cs go where we got the average fps was coming in a similar ballpark on both sides we
got a 520 on windows 10 versus 528 on windows 11 so we're just getting etching out eight more fps
on windows 11 side now there was a trick that i had to do in cs go i looked around
everywhere because i was like damn my fps is looking pretty low at least when i benchmarked
this game in the past and i couldn't figure out why the fps was this low i mean i tried uh this
guy on twitter posted up a fix that he was like log address or something in the console i tried
that didn't work but then i found what was working in cs go especially on low settings at 1080p
was the fact that the graphics card wasn't running its full potential so i had to go into the amd
software and then up that minimum frequency to roughly a hundred percent as well and then that
fixed the problem even upping it double the speed of what it is normally because what was happening
was the game wasn't demanding much graphical power at all so the gpu is like falling asleep and
sometimes when the gpu falls asleep you may notice in programs like gpu id that it does show that it
does change from pci 4 down to like pci 2 and pci 1 sometimes and so i believe that can affect your
fps so this raised the fps up by quite a lot and that might be a fix for you guys if you're having
fps problems in cs go and maybe not just cs go for that matter maybe other games like minecraft or
valorant for example but that would fix that and there it all is with windows 11 versus windows 10
i believe the performance gains we saw here today were just due to that developer copy being
an actual better implementation of the os rather than the standard windows 10 that just comes with
a lot of crap installed from the get-go i mean their latest update of windows 10 they installed
some weather bar which i just was like what is microsoft doing why are they including a weather
bar no one asked for this but sure enough they put some extra i'd call it bloatware on the os just to
who knows maybe just confuse the end user that's all i could take it out because as soon as i saw
this thing i got rid of it but speaking of getting rid of things if you guys want to see a windows 11
tutorial guide on how to decrapify windows 11 then i can get that done on the channel because windows
10 i feel is going to be at an end of an error and then windows 11 i definitely welcome the changes
that they've done to this os it does look very polished even with this developer copy and it was
running better for games so i can give you guys a heap of content around this if you want to see
that then be sure to smash that like button also let us know in the comment section below have you
tried windows 11 yet love reading those thoughts and opinions as always just like this question of
the day here which comes from california thrills and they ask how do those front fans pull any air
through and they're talking about our custom build here that we did with the corsair 500d i did this
with a fellow youtuber designs by rfi does amazing work but basically this build right here it pulls
air because there's openings on both sides of the glass and then it can pull air through there and
it does keep the build actually surprisingly cool for what would be considered a closed front on
the case itself hope that answers that question and if you guys have stayed this far and you're
enjoying that tech yes content then be sure to hit that sub button ring that bell to get the content
as soon as it drops and i'll catch you guys in another tech video very soon peace out for now
bye
you
