Gettting a new boot drive since last one died, with a fresh install should I get windows 24H2 or stick with 23H2? (lemmy.world)

Before anyone says it, I already have Fedora in another drive (which I will remove to install windows, dont worry) so no need to suggest linux.

Basically the last time I tried 24H2 was earlier this year from a forced update and it sucked balls, major performance issues in most games. I heard that a fresh install could fix this but I really couldnt be bothered so I reverted and blocked updates. But now thanks to my shitty chinese NVME that died with 30TBW with 2 years of use, I have an opportunity to install windows fresh. Should I even try 24H2 again? Better to install 23H2 offline and block feature updates again?

I see, how about gaming performance? I might give a try from what you told me but any stuttering would just mean wiping clean for 23h2 tbh

    between the two, maybe margin of error in favour of 24h2?

    Can you tell us the contexts in which you encountered stuttering? Was it just gameplay on its own? Did it involve video playback simultaneously? Maybe streaming gameplay or something like that?

    I do always have a twitch tab open but I don't stream myself

    I see, that could be relevant to the areas above. The Chromium project has at least one high-impact open issue pertaining to Windows multiplane overlay implementation.

    Am I right in presuming you used a chromium derived browser?

    Was using Vivaldi, so chromium. Can that multiplane overlay be disabled?

    you can disable it via windows registry but it's not a method I like to recommend, given that it's a beneficial technology.

    If it causes stutters than it isn't beneficial to me though

    true, that specific issue lies with chromium, though.

    After several hours of struggling with a ton of stuff, I played MH Wilds with 24H2 and it ran fine? Game's performance sucks but this isnt any better or worse than 23H2, a win I guess?

    I'm glad to hear. I gather wilds was recently updated (within the last two or so months) to address much of the performance woes? I'm sorry to hear that hasn't really materialised.

    I recently sent a copy to a friend with a modest setup hoping it would now run fine on their hardware :/

    Its a little better, for me at least, but for a lot of people it actually got worse /shrug

    MH World took years to run reasonably well on PC so I'm keeping my hopes up.
