[Hunter_M♤cer]

Here is my Pc specs first
Cpu: I5 2400
Psu: Fsp Hv Pro 85+ 650 Watts Bronze rated pau
Motherboard: Ecs H61h2-mv
Ram: 8gb ddr3
Storage: 500gb hdd
Graphics card: Currently none due to my gpu being broken


So anyways the question is, should I upgrade to Windows 11 or stick to Windows 10 till 2024?

Pretty sure you can`t with those ancient specs.

Stick with 10. You technically don't qualify for 11 but 11 still gets buggy updates and has issues 10 doesn't.

If your upgrading cpu, etc... may as well install win 11 if for nothing more than to see if it runs ok.

Long ago, in ancient times, there was a system processor, called the Pentium 4.
It was ancient, yet modern. It possessed the technology and capability to run Windows 11.

Behold, the pyramids and ancient structures of a Pentium 4 moderboard.

In ancient times the technology already existed to support the platform. Modern IT Archeologists are baffeled by this.

The point being, any 'intel Core tm' processor can likely run Windows 11, since it goes beyond the pentium line.

Yeah just save up for a new system, and wait another 6 months to a year. I'm still hearing from other users that, their are still system issues with windows 11.

Doing a parlor trick for YouTube and actually using it every day are two different things.

Just wait until you do a whole new build. Then you can take down your Win10 key you currently have and use on new machine to activate Win11 for free.

No point in using Win11 yet especially on old non gaming pcs

What I was trying to say is that "you can't" is not correct. It is possible.
To get an older system optimized, it maybe better to go for Ghost Spectre or another modded installation. (Then WIndows 11 will use about 1.5GB RAM, etc.)
It then becomes much more of an option.... 'at least', if you just use it for stereotypical things, such as youtubing, netflix, chatting, forum posting, emailing, searching reddit, etc.

For gaming, its always recommended to upgrade hardware, otherwise you get locked out of newer games.

isn't windows 11 just reskin of windows 10?

[Kobs]

Not before they stop updating win 10

[Tiberius]

stick with windows 10. There are too many problems with win11 currently

[Dr.Shadowds 🐉]

When get your new system, you can get W11, but no rush really.

You can install W11 on it, and not a problem really either AFAIK, believe it, or not the issue is that MS put a gate on the installer, and that can be bypass easily, and doing daily stuff isn't a problem.

Kind of, it's a refresh of W10 with redone work on it basically, yeah...

[Talby]

Since win11 requires some workarounds to the installer to get it installed on unsupported hw (which you will have to re-apply on the big feature updates like 22h2) probably best to just stick with 10 until you upgrade.

You know what ill upgrade to Windows 11 at 2024 after I get a couple of upgrades

[Phénomènes Mystiques]

Wait for Windows 12 Official this summer, but wait until next year. Windows 11 is a beta.
