I have X-Lite Ultimate 11 and love it. Everything is pretty much the same as Optimum, it seems. Plays COD a lot better than a normal install of windows. Honestly, I had jumped from windows to Linux a couple months ago (and didn't really miss it). I loaded youtube one day and saw a video by X-Lite. Decided to try it in VMware and, well, here I am now.

[@_DashingAdi_]

Same I came back from linux. It's cool, fast and everything but honestly it's not worth me wasting 4-5 hours every couple of days on errors occuring just because I update some packages. Even with snapshots available linux sucks. Even tried immutable distros like NixOs and the experience wasn't so good.

I've been using this OS for over a year now and I must say; this is the best ver. Of windows out there, The initial performance you get right after installation is better but that's not even the best part, it's the consistency in performance. The problem with windows vanilla is that after a few months your PC starts slow down like crazy if you don't have a high end PC. I haven't noticed any drops in performance for over a year using this version. And here's an advice; don't activate windows updates, if you go to the website you can find the updates and install them manually at your own pace. Edit: i might reformat to try the new coboly edition 😂😂

[@bobcamoh.a.f.2874]

glad someone else noticed the performance slow down on windows OS's... this has actually been a thing since winXP which is when i first tested it and noticed it, hasn't been addressed since... I've literally installed them on machines and NEVER did anything but VERY basic stuff and NEVER updated or installed newer stuff and after a month or so(some as soon as 2 weeks), the performance would ALWAYS drag down... could never figure this out, and it doesn't matter if it's high end or low end, just high end it's not as jarring of a change but it still slows down pretty badly. started making my self to re-install windows weekly to monthly because of it... BUT i use to find custom WinXP's and Win7's that i started using and never had issues with them. think my favorite XP was the Gold Cobra Edition someone made. i forget the win7 one but was basically a minimal style which was easy to make your self with a tool.

Can you do an optimum11 vs tiny os banchmark? Also I have tried to combine chris titus tool + rectify 11 + atlasos on a tiny os installation. It turned out to be a nice idea for achieving best performance. I have tried with revios too, but i prefer to use the previous combination, the one without it. So I'm asking for this banchmark to know which one is the os with best performance between tiny and optimum, also for the fact that tiny has a surprising fps boost and better performance compared to a lot of other OSes. Thank you! :)

Don't install this. I'm certain this breaks the terms of service for Microsoft. Also, this requires you to disable security on windows to set up which is already sketchy.

You can remove bloat from your PC manually to speed up your PC without having to risk your Info or data.
