Question Should I buy Windows 10 or Windows 11 ?

[Diesel Gaming]

Is there any reason to buy Windows 10 over Windows 11?

I'm getting ready to get my gaming PC built and below is a list of my parts if it helps.

I hope you're getting the above parts for a cheap price since they're dated for 2023, yes they can hold their ground but in 2023 you might want to look into the Ryzen 5000 series. You should look into Windows 11 since that's what the direction for an OS should be. You can still stick to Windows 10 but that support will end by 2025, so that's about 1.6 years from now.

I'd vote Windows 11.

I don't have any qualms about your build (it's better than mine). And after having been a W10 hanger-oner for quite some time, I finally upgraded to W11 sometime back. So far, I've never looked back. In fact I've upgraded most of my newer machines to W11.

Win 10 vs Win 11...
I have some of both.

If your hardware is fully Win 11 capable, there is no reason to avoid it.

At this point, there's not much reason not to migrate to Windows 11, if you can. Windows 10 is already on life support. It will only be receiving security updates, until it EoL's in 2025. Windows 11 will be receiving both security updates, and feature updates.

I'd say get Windows 10, you can always go to Windows 11 later for free, If you do upgrade to Windows 11 and hate it, you can go back to Windows 10 and still be activated on that machine.

I say 11. However I also agree the parts selected are kind of dated. You really should look at ryzen 5000 series or go Intel 12th gen or higher.
