Win 11 has been around a long time. If you moved up from Windows 10, is it actually better or worse? Did the move work well? People say the upgrade was okay because they didn't completely replace everything, but some think it's better thanks to new processors and how the system handles many threads at once. However, no one has heard anything else confirming this yet 🤔

If you go from version 10 to version 11 inside your computer, it is best to reinstall Windows 11 using the official installer USB after making that USB bootable with the Media Creation Tools. This has been true for the same thing: upgrading from Win 7 to 8, or from 8 to 10.

The thread scheduler is something only Intel makes, and it actually works better on Windows 11 than the current version of Windows 11. AMD's not involved here either. You don't really need to switch to Windows 11 if you are okay with Windows 10, unless Microsoft decides to stop supporting Windows 10 soon.

RAM is a pricey item, so you want your computer using it wisely. Both Windows 10 and Windows 11 have great memory managers that try to use as much in their own memory as possible, without stopping the system from giving out more for specific tasks. It's not smart at all to guess how much RAM the system is using by looking at the screen. So saying that Win11 using too much RAM isn't a good thing is pointless.
