    It's possible the leak's somewhere in Asia perhaps, depending on which part of the US you are in. Like in my neck of the woods, you had posted at 2:55am in the US, but it's 2:55pm here....so, it's possible the OS was installed around my neck of the woods in the early morning on the 16th, making it early afternoon on the 15th in the US.

    This is almost very painful to look at, good thing the icons on taskbar can be moved to the left (I know some users want it in the center).
    The first images does not give any justice to the powerful computers and graphics that we have today.
    Maybe it's the lack of colour :eek: IDK

    Has anyone ran any kind of games and benchmarks yet ? Is it faster than windows 10 ? 3dmark timespy and geekbench or wprime and aida 64 memory test would be useful information.

    I put it on a spare ssd (1TB Corsair MP600 with the F'ked up firmware they will not fix) and hooked it up to the test bench computer last night and gave it a whirl. Hate the new interface. If I want a MAC I would go buy a MAC. The stock drivers are a joke at this point. The ones it downloads from WU are not much better. At this point you cannot be too critical (they are WDDM 4.0 at least). Installed Diablo 3 for sh*ts and giggles (quick and easy on a 1.5GB pipe). It runs horribly. It did not crash during a two hour session but could barely get 40fps @1440p (G-Sync enabled) on a Ryzen 2700x/16GB/GTX 1080Ti. Same setup with Win10 hits over 230fps. Hate to see what a AAA title would be like.

    It would be much easier if Microsoft gave install options. Like full or lite modes. That will never happen though.

    firmware TPM is an optional implementation per the mainboard vendor and not an AMD hardware feature, its executed within the (not very secure) TXE processor.

    AMD does not have an equivalent hardware TPM.

    Doesn't really matter though, the final install iso's won't require TPM on desktops.


    [note]
    There are TPM headers on some Zen motherboards that you can plug a TPM dongle into

    That enables the PSP 11 or 12 module on AMD system boards. The equivalent to the TPM 2.0 module on Intel boards. Didn't someone earlier say AMD did not have the ability? Guess they need to brush up on modern cpu technologies. But it is optioned on the system board based on manufacturer spec.

    I have created the perfect UI for me with KDE. It's a mix of Windows elements, macOS (the global menu and the keyboard shortcuts are the best in the business), with a tiling window manager script.

    Not the options I was referring to, but rather these:

    Win 10 taskbar right click options:

    vs Win 11:

    But I agree, the final version to consumers will not likely have the TPM requirement.

    All I care about is if WIN11 will ditch 32-bit support
