Windows 11 Home vs Pro for Gaming: Which One Should You Choose?

Upgrading from Windows 11 Home to Windows 11 Pro does not yield significant benefits in gaming performance, compatibility, or features for most gamers. Both editions provide identical gaming performance, supporting the same core gaming technologies such as DirectStorage, Auto HDR, and Game Mode. Windows 11 Home supports up to 128 GB of RAM and one CPU socket with 64 cores, while Windows 11 Pro supports up to 2 TB of RAM and two CPU sockets with 128 cores. Pro includes additional features like BitLocker encryption, Remote Desktop hosting, Hyper-V virtualization, and Group Policy management, which are not typically utilized by gamers. The price of Windows 11 Home is lower than that of Pro, making it a more cost-effective choice for gaming. Both editions meet the hardware requirements for modern gaming, and compatibility with major games and platforms is consistent across both versions.

Microsoft removes another roadblock for Windows 11 24H2

Microsoft has lifted the security block on the rollout of Windows 11 24H2 for users with Asphalt 8 installed, which was previously implemented due to the game crashing or becoming unresponsive after the update. The update blocker ID for IT administrators is 52796746. Microsoft confirmed that the problem has been resolved and the update block has been removed. It may take up to 48 hours for the update to become available via Windows Update, and restarting the device can expedite this process. Users still facing issues can try a Registry/Group Policy hack to update directly.

Want to upgrade to Windows 11? Just buy a new PC, says Microsoft

Microsoft is urging users to purchase new PCs to run Windows 11, as the operating system requires specific hardware, including a CPU that supports TPM 2.0. The company emphasizes that newer computers are faster, more powerful, and more secure. While Windows 10 users can still receive support for a year, Microsoft prefers users transition to new hardware. This push raises concerns about electronic waste, as many existing Windows 10 machines can run Windows 11, and users question the need to replace functioning devices. There are alternatives to discarding old hardware, such as repurposing or recycling it.
