Title says it all. I love it so far and I am really enjoying the clean look. My Ryzen 5900x runs a smoother and a lot cooler when multitasking. Steady 52c in wow (prior was 55c-63c and it would bounce around a lot). Noy its steady. Heck its 38c just using chrome when before it would jump all around between 40-60c. Not anymore. Windows 11 temps are just more consistent. I haven’t been this excited with an update in a long while. Cant wait to see how my Ryzen 5800H laptop does.
What are your thoughts?

Loving Windows 11. I used it during the beta via the Windows Insider Program. Nice to see it’s finally out for release!
Highly recommend it as I’ve noticed some changes in my running temperatures as well. Average temperature is lower when running apps such as World of Warcraft compared to when I was running Windows 10.
My PC is a Acer Predator Gaming PC, Which I bought brand new at Best Buy last summer.
I have always liked Acer Predator products. When I bought my laptop I almost bought the Acer Predator Triton 500 se. In the end I didn’t get it due to the lack of a mux switch and 100w limited GPU. Not to mention the fact that the Legion Series Laptops have a on site repair warranty. So if something goes wrong they send a tech to your house to fix it so you never have to go without your laptop
My Laptop is a Legion 5 Pro 16". I just ran a test last night on it. It use to get a little toasty because of the RTX 3070 in it. The 5800H cpu used to hit a max temp of 92c in 1440p gaming. Now its max temp is 85c. I must say that it is a nice change for my laptop also
Looks like CPU improvements made it into the newer builds but the improvements are still small. You’ll need new CPUs to possibly take advantage so we’ll see… in the meantime Linux is still leagues faster.
Until they get the storage features working I don’t see a reason for me to even bother trying it out.
There are many reddit threads and youtube videos on this. Most of the comments state they are actually seeing improvements. Not a performance hit.
I have a Ryzen 9 5900x in my desktop. I have a performance increase with a temp decrease. The same can be said about my 5800H in my laptop. Its more likely its effecting certain hardware combos
I’m going to hold off on upgrading my 5950X desktop for a few months, but my ThinkPad X1 Nano is running it now and it’s decent. A few rough edges but I like the new visual style. Nice to see the stupid Windows 8 “metro” or “modern” look finally meeting its demise.
It’s entirely relevant to the thread and could be useful to people who are considering upgrading. It also comes directly from AMD. And no, I didn’t say anything about FPS loss, either but nice try, Strawman You.
I know I won’t be upgrading my Ryzen 5900HS system while this AMD bug is unfixed. Probably going to wait awhile longer, seeing how bug fixes sometimes introduce more problems.
