Windows 11 appears capable for upgrades, but stability depends on your system and requirements.
You're on Windows 10, and the update prompts keep suggesting upgrading to Windows 11. I've also seen it in the PC Health Check app, which confirms the same advice. The main concern is whether it's stable enough for the upgrade. You're using an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and a Radeon RX 5700 XT. There were past compatibility issues with AMD, but it seems those have been resolved. As for software, most programs should still work on Windows 11, though some might need adjustments. If it feels different, let me know what you experience!
There will be plenty of people who say no its riddled with bugs and will kill your cat, so you can choose not to based on that. Personally, been running it on two machines since before release and its perfectly fine. So much that I don't even really notice a difference at this point from 10. Third option.. if you don't know what you're getting into and have to ask, maybe just don't if you're not prepared to fix issues that may arise. You have years of support for 10 still to come, there is nothing you need . I follow Windows development closely and enjoy having the latest things and am well versed in finding ways to resolve issues on my own so I'm perfectly happy to live on the bleeding edge. If there is nothing you need from 11, there is no reason to update.
It seems stable overall, though a few bugs remain (taskbar placement requires regedit). I haven’t hit any issues with it on my 3700x/RTX3070, and I haven’t encountered any problematic programs on Windows 11 yet.
If you suggest a fresh setup, perhaps I should skip it since I lack a place to save my files.
