Best version of windows 10 for gaming

[Custly]

So I'm buying parts for my PC so I can game on a APU and of course I want every bit of performance I can get. If I remember correctly a patch of windows caused some problems by slowing PC's down and I don't know if they have fixed it in recent patches or anything, so I need help finding the best patch of windows 10 for gaming... If that's even a thing :D. 

Thanks in advance.

Not really a thing unless you really want to maximize performance and lose a few features (Maybe you get 1-2% more fps but its not noticible to the human eye). Just clean the bloatware they include in the start menu and set everything to performance mode or just run a script like this that does it for you: https://christitus.com/debloat-windows-10-2020/. There might be some performance gains of 2 fps or so beyond that, but it’s not worth it searching through every menu and reading every description.

The most recent one with a bit of crap removed. Those custom versions are well at best a mild security risk as who knows what someone put in there. That and most do not get regular updates if at all which is again a  security risk and also a stability issue. So at most run a debloater script or do it yourself.

 

Besides that you'll get a couple % fps at best depending on what you have. You aren't going to make a game that wasn't at all playable magically playable.

I though so, but thanks for your time

I wanted to squeeze some fps but looking at the replies it seems its not worth the effort, thanks for you time nonetheless

It's especially not worth it before trying the regular version.

 

And you could always just run a debloater to gain a few fps - you will see,  windows is relentless trying to make your gaming as miserable as possible with the default settings... ~
