The only reason I’m on 10 with my main pc is because the 7th gen intel in there isn’t compatible with win11. I have another pc that is 7th gen, which I put windows 11 on and there is just something weird about it. When I do anything on that machine it doesn’t do it immediately, it sits for a few seconds before actions are done. Really aggravating. Clicking on a program on the taskbar takes a few seconds before it opens. File explorer, firefox browser, settings pane, … Once programs are running it’s fine to use said programs, but I wonder what they did to make it feel this way.
I have Linux on both machines as primary OS and they are super snappy, it’s not the hardware.
I had Windows 10 on an older (but not ancient) machine and it was literally unusable. 10-15 minute boot time and another 5 or so just to get a browser to open. The misery didn’t end once things were open; everything was still slower than when I had windows 7 on what would now be considered a truly ancient machine. I put Linux on it and experienced a roughly 5x speedup.

How much RAM do the systems have? 8gb? The delay may be in the system making room in ram for the program. Win11 is so ram hungry. It’s stupid.
They both have 16GB RAM.
The one with Windows 10 has a i5 7600k and GTX1060
The one with Windows 11 has a i7 7700k and GTX1080
Both with nvme ssd storage samsung evo (cant remember which exactly). The 7600k machine even has hdds and ssds via sata extra.
