One of the promises Microsoft made about Windows 11 was about the performance benefits it had. A former Microsoft engineer, however, has called Windows 11 out on its "comically bad" performance.
Despite Windows 11 optimization, it was recently found that Intel's newer 13th Gen is less snappy than the 10th Gen. Interestingly, AMD's modern Ryzen 7000 is not exhibiting this to such a degree.
On the outgoing Windows 10, it was recently found that Intel's newer 13th Gen is less snappy than 10th Gen CPUs. Interestingly, it looks like modern Ryzen is also falling behind the older Intel chip.
Microsoft and Intel worked together to optimize Windows 11 for the latter's hybrid CPU design. Testing however suggests that Windows 10 may indeed be a bit snappier overall than Windows 11.
Intel's hybrid CPUs are apparently struggling with latency issues as they can often be sluggish despite being much faster on paper than older CPUs like 10th or 11th gen, according to a report.
Microsoft has started work on XDP for Windows, which is based on a popular Linux project that enables low latency and high throughput for apps. The firm's implementation is open-source on GitHub.
Microsoft has detailed a new feature it has added in recent Windows 11 Dev Channel builds that offers reduced latency, Variable Refresh Rate, and Auto HDR for legacy games running on DX10 and DX11.
Microsoft recently began deploying HTTP/3 across Exchange Online front-door servers. Microsoft 365 customers can expect latency reductions of up to 67% when using services like Outlook.
Beginning in spring 2018 and complete before the year end, updates will be rolled out to the Xbox One S and X which will bring welcome improvements to the overall gaming experience for each console.
Intel has announced that its 802.11ax chipsets are coming this year, offering 40% better performance on a single-client device in terms of peak data rates, and low latency in games and video calls.
