Windows 10 & Raptor Lake

[Mista G]

Is Windows 11 required for Raptor Lake or is Windows 10 fully supported now?

Windows 10 still doesn't play well with the P & E core set up, It will work & it is better than it was with the newer updates but performance might be a bit all over the place as the scheduler still isn't perfect.

I'm currently running Windows 10 and not having issues as yet. What should I lookout for should the behaviour change? Also, I had weird issue with AMD Drivers on Windows 11, yet Windows 10 is stable.

Some things will be off loaded onto the E cores rather than the P cores hampering the performance.

The E cores are suprisingly good for what they are but you could squeeze more out of the setup on windows 11 if the tasks are handled correctly.

Currently running a fresh install of Windows 11 and nothing funky yet with the drivers.

Makes me wonder how mature Win 11 needs to be before gamers will finally move to it. I have been running Win 11 in enterprise and home use and have found no issue which would be remedied by dusting off a copy of windows 10. As far as I know you can even use your Win 10 product key to install Win 11 so why not just run the OS which is getting all the support and updates?

Been on it since August 2021. Zero real issues with 10900K and 13700K. Most are just small nitpicks, nothing game or performance breaking. UI changes are just a little less accessible in some ways, which I suppose is a valid concern.
