every other version of windows sucks. just use windows 10 until 12 comes out. 

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

Come on now, just because that's how its been until now, doesn't mean it will be the same. Lets give it a chance at least. It looks promising, IMO.

 

As for using it as your primary OS, only do so if you're fine with plenty of OS breaking bugs. Be prepared to lose your data.

it's been that way for decades now. 

plus, the centered taskbar is a massive turn off for me. and it's a mostly cosmetic upgrade. so i'm think it's going to be like Vista or 8.

You can align it to the left...

If all you do with it is play games and browse and you don't mind bugs & potential crashes, sure.
If you use it for school / work or store any kind of important data on it... then wait for the full official release.

Well... that's your personal opinion of not liking a centred taskbar, not sure how that applies to whether or not OP should be running Windows 11.

The decision is yours.

Windows 11 is in development, and you need to be ready to live with issues, unexpected system re-install, device/peripherals that will stop working, and data loss.

You need to have the time and patience to troubleshoot issues with limited to no help, and you need to have a strong backup solution in place (again, expect unexpected data loss).
