Trying to install OS and stick to it for 2 Years Atleast. Windows 10 or 11?

HI,

I'm just freaky about installing fresh windows every 3 4 month. but i have to stick to one for a bit ( Like 2 3 years )

so my main question is which OS do you think runs better? Win10 Gets Updates Only till end of 2025 but Who Cares about the Updates when the OS runs Like butter With the Latest Version?
in terms of features I don't see that much, if the Copilot is the feature i don't want it i use GPT.

all a round, what do you guys think should i install? Win 10 or 11? and Why?

my PC Spec for running both for programs on long term is solid

i5 13400 + RTX 3070 + 32GB RAM + 980 Pro

Either. The stuff people don't like about Win11 are generally quite specific UI stuff (it's fine on my laptop but I will not use it on the desktop) but if you don't care about those things it's fine.

Well since W10 is EOL in about 9 months I would probably go W11 pro version. Having said that W10 apparently will have option of $40/yr for security updates.

I guess another question is the software you use, and if any of if has preference for OS or not?

I have been running 2yrs now

The security updates will stop, so you will be left vulnerable.

Windows 11 works better than w10 with the heterogenous cores on intel cpu's was my understanding.

You should take Windows 11 Pro.

You may take your time reading the specifics about backups, data privacy and other important points.

Windows 11 Pro is buggy, but it was a free upgrade form windows 10 pro, which was a free upgrade form a second hand windows 8 pro paper box license.

I hardly remember any windows without bugs. Maybe windows 3.11 and the other version I used before that on the 286 computer was bug free.

As the question was about windows operating system - that's it

Are LTSC versions an option too?

This has been my experience. Ever since 24H2 I have been having problems. Everytime Windows makes an update they add some annoying feature. I was getting freezes and black screens before my PSU started tripping. So I re installed Windows. First issue was a error key. When I investigated it had to do with Extra Storage like RAID 0 drives. What I had to do was go into CMD and use DIskpart to convert them to Basic. Of course that wiped all of those drives. So I reset the OS and it came right back. I installed Bazzite for a day and was not satisfied. I decided on Windows 10. The first thing that happened is my board is WIFI 7. There are no Windows 10 drivers for that. I got a USB Network Adapter to make it work. Then I -get into Windows and all of the rest of the Drives in my PC that are not Raid are all now locked by Bitlocker. Going online solves nothing as the keys are not in my profile. Now I am stable but have to re-download almost 800 Games.
