I just got a new PC that has Windows 11 pre-installed, and I'm wondering if it's actually good for gaming or if I should switch back to Windows 10? What are your thoughts on this?

You should totally stick with Windows 11! Windows 10 is basically on its way out, and while there might be some exceptions, you're better off with the latest version. Plus, some reports suggest Windows 11 offers slightly better gaming performance.
In my opinion, there's really no reason to go back to Windows 10. Windows 11 is the way to go now since Windows 10 isn't getting security updates anymore. Just check if your games are running smoothly on 11—if they are, then you're good!
I'm worried about the new AI features in Windows 11 taking up too many resources. Is there a way to disable them?
Seriously, why would you downgrade to an unsupported OS? Windows 11 is pretty much on par with Windows 10 and often faster. Also, Windows 10 will end support in 2025, so sticking with 11 makes more sense for gaming in the long run.
Yeah, but I prefer the Windows 10 interface and am unsure how resource-heavy the new AI features are.
Honestly, if you haven't had any issues while gaming on Windows 11, there's no harm in staying with it. It was a bit rough at launch, but now I don’t hear anyone complaining about major problems, including myself!
I can't even move my Taskbar, though. It's so frustrating!
Thanks for the tip! I’ll check it out.
