Windows 8.1 vs Windows 11 speed test. Which is better for older devices?

[@mario123m]

8.1 is better for any devices, not just older. It surpasses 10 and 11 in terms of speed and smoothness in virtually every aspect possible. To Windows 11's credit, though, it's newer, fancier and has a bunch of useful features that 8.1 doesn't have and never will have, but compared with 8.1, it's bloated as hell (same as 10...). I mean look at the number of processes running on 11 - 146 vs. only 32 on 8.1. Enough said. Windows 8.1 is the most complete, stable and smooth OS Microsoft has ever released. It's also the last one where you can easily disable automatic updates without messing with the group policy. The only thing they messed up was Metro UI. It wasn't ugly or anything, but it had no place on a desktop. But all of that is just a minor inconvenience because you don't even have to use Metro UI at all if you install a 3rd party replacement for the Start Menu.

Chill dude Windows 11 is 1 year old and Windows 8.1 is 8 years old

I can't imagine what will Windows 11 evolve to better places

Yeah 8.1 along with the Windows 7 theme is just perfect.. However Steam support will end in a few months time 😢 I bought a newer Windows 11 laptop and it's coming today.

Windows 8.1 is probably the fastest modern windows version besides XP, but XP doesn't use WDDM so that's subjective.

[@Aderic]

Why do you not bother syncing up the boot times at 1:00? The button looks pressed at different times to me.

[@leonaduu]

Look how the response time is, it is faster despite having pressed 2 seconds before, so windows 8.1 wins

[@विचित्रलड़का]

Newer OS is slower than older one. Who would have guessed. My suggestion is keep your laptop on the same OS that it came with. The hardware usually matches the software. Unless you bought a high end one , don't upgrade the OS , just keep it up to date until the end of support.

[@PROMincraftExpliotsnotro-gt2rf]

I mean windows 11 and 10 are just as fast… that is only if junk isn’t pre installed into windows…

[@hakangursoy589]

This is not always the case. Windows 7 performs better than Vista and Windows 8.1 performs better than Windows 7. In newer releases they just stopped giving a f about performance.

[@MoreSunnySFM]

I would say Windows 8.1 would best for low end computer. Yeah I got my first laptop having dual boot which is Windows 8.1 and 11.

[@KanoValentine]

Appreciate the video man. Glad theres a reason to go for 8.1 but since 11 is the newer but despite it being slower, Windows 11 is just a better choice.

[@muhammadnajeeb8666]

In my opinion too windows 8 is best for mid spex devices too. Peoples should use it

The end of support for Windows 7 made me upgrade all of the PC's from 2004-2008 to Windows 8.1, and besides i missed Windows 8.1,. Because i hadn't Windows 8.1 in three years (from May 2017 to November 2020).

[@jezukaa8917]

Will windows 8.1 have 60-90 fps in games like call of duty or forza horizon?

For this kinda laptop its impossible. If you have gaming laptop its better with windows 11 or windows 10. Because latest graphics drivers do not support older windows operating systems
