Still not as many as there are Sony shills.How many Microsoft, windows and gamepass shills can you get on one website... Hmmm..

Well that's a big fuck you from MS.
In their "All In" on gaming thing with Satya, Phil said there will frankly always be a place for consoles and they're not going to abandon them so I wouldn't be too worried.Is the writing on the wall that the Xbox Console is no longer going to be the focus of the Xbox brand? A renewed focus on PC, xCloud and talk of streaming boxes and TV support I wonder if the traditional console will be around two generations from now. At least in the same sense as the Series X is right now. Just a thought.

Maybe if people had actual data, personal experience, or an opinion, but no. It's a link to a company avertising. Or countless "but muh gamepass" posts. I would think people were legit, but we already had a cyberpunk shill on here for months, who's to say some people aren't just that (it's not like Ms hasn't deployed this tactic over and over again.)
Wont that just make them hotter?Make NVME drive go vroom vroom.
I can't really complain much if its a free upgrade from 10, it's probably going to be 90% Windows 10 with a face-lift anyway.
Yeah....that's going to be a problem. TPM 2.0 is not supported on my motherboard. I have to buy a module or something.
Seriously, Microsoft?
idk if the TPM need is accurate
and yet, these people have Windows 11 installedTPM 2.0 is listed in the minimum requirements for Windows 11.
and yet, these people have Windows 11 installed
I don't believe the "console" will vanish but will it be inline with the same vision as Series X? I'm wondering if they will take a more Series S approach in that it doesn't need as much under the hood and focus on it being less expensive once priority has fully shifted. Nintendo has proven power does not win you the market.In their "All In" on gaming thing with Satya, Phil said there will frankly always be a place for consoles and they're not going to abandon them so I wouldn't be too worried.
DirectStorage API exclusive to Windows 11.. just why?
Doesn't seem very pro consumer at all.
Best and most stable Windows ever.At least they admit w10 is pure crap.
Pretty much everyone with Ryzen CPU have fTPM options, which works too.
Turn on fTPM in bios and it will be compatibleAccording to the Windows PC Health check they ask you to install - my device is not compatible with Windows 11.
My Ryzen 7 5800X with an X570 motherboard, 16GB 3600MHZ memory, 2X nvme drives and a 6900 XT is "not compatible".

So DirectStorage won't work on SATA SSDs.![]()

It works, it's supplying TPM 2.0. I just tried that and no problem.Did Microsoft say fTPM will work for Windows 11?

it's a free upgrade ....DirectStorage API exclusive to Windows 11.. just why?

However not sure about updating BIOS after W11 installation, not sure if it does not wipe the keys.![]()
Yep. Finally found the setting in my bios and PC Health check says I'm good now.
However not sure about updating BIOS after W11 installation, not sure if it does not wipe the keys.
Aware of that.. mentioned that here.it's a free upgrade ....
It's a shame for the people who want to stick with Windows 10 AND make use of DirectStorage. There isn't any option for them.
Can't think of a single reason why this isn't technically possible for Microsoft. It's just a weird and anti consumer decision to me.
It's less work for them. It's free.Aware of that.. mentioned that here.
Best and most stable Windows ever.
most changes that occur in any operating system are not released on the previous operating system .. it works like this on Android, Macos, iOS and even on Windows ..... what reason would there be to change the operating system if all the new features were brought over the previous ones? and then why stop at w10? and what about w7?Aware of that.. mentioned that here.
"With DirectStorage, which will only be available with Windows 11, games can quickly load assets to the graphics card without bogging down the CPU. This means you’ll get to experience incredibly detailed game worlds rendered at lightning speeds, without long load times. “DirectStorage Optimized” Windows 11 PCs are configured with the hardware and drivers needed to enable this amazing experience."
YAY! Now PC players will finally understand what PS5 players have been enjoying since November, 2020. Welcome aboard guys!
Not gonna lie, that 1TB requirement is kinda unfortunate. I got one 1TB and a 500GB PCIe 4.0 M.2 NVMe and it would be a shame to be only able to use one for direct storage gaming.Good.
this post reminds me of this pic (which is NSFW and you really, really shouldn't look at):"With DirectStorage, which will only be available with Windows 11, games can quickly load assets to the graphics card without bogging down the CPU.

There is a difference between satisfied customer and a shill.Still not as many as there are Sony shills.
You nailed it , buddy. Confirmed.Turn on fTPM in bios and it will be compatible
Because it wasn't that great when it launched, and turned out to become good over time with lots of updates and refinements.I remember when people HATED Windows 10 when it released...now people suddenly want to stick with it for reasons.

I've worked in IT for coming up on 30 years. This cycle has been repeated time and time and time and time again with every Windows release I've been around for. Everyone hates it at first because it's new. Then people reluctantly use it and either adjust their habits to tolerate it, or genuinely start to like it. Nowadays Microsoft rolls out patches that increase performance and stability, so the longer it's in use the better it gets. The more it becomes routine, the more people are unwilling to give it up - especially true when it's a radical shift like Win 3.1 -> Win 95 or from ME -> XP. People have their programs set up the way they like them. Things are stable. Then most people feel like Microsoft rips the rug out from under them.I remember when people HATED Windows 10 when it released...now people suddenly want to stick with it for reasons.
