My work laptop was upgraded to Windows 11 and performance has severely suffered.
As someone who usually uses 3 monitors (sometimes 4) and does GIS, it's an issue.
Are you using scaling?
On my work laptop dragging a window from one monitor to the next would make them "snag" in between borders as they struggled and stuttered trying to change the scale.
It looked soooo fucking stupid I couldn't believe my eyes
You can tell just by the fan noise or monitoring cpu usage. Win 11 uses more cpu regularly.
I’m not sure if it’s bad, because they changed other things too like the start menu, and it’s less responsive.
Single app performance is about the same as 10.
Many such moments with the PCs at work. I can't wait to retire and never have to deal with anything modern again. What absolute dogshit and slop computers have become.
Oh yeah. If you've got 4 GB ram, win 11 is going to absolutely skullfuck that machine.
