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
