Windows 11 is touted to be the most secure operating system from Microsoft for PCs. It comes with elements such as virtualisation-based security (VBS). This feature is one of the key aspects of the OS but it is speculated to reduce the performance of the system, a catch that especially gamers should be worried about.

Windows 11 For Gamers

As per a report by PC Gamer, gaming enthusiasts might see a decline in the performance of their system by 25 percent, which will leave an impact on the frame rates. However, it is said that this will be a concern only on the pre-built PCs that will be shipped with Windows 11 OS. The older PCs that are upgraded from Windows 10 Home or Windows 10 Pro to Windows 11 are likely to have this VBS feature disabled by default and it will not decline the gaming performance, it adds.

The report notes that while the VBS feature is not needed when upgrading to Windows 11, it is believed that the security benefits offered by this feature are essential. Also, PCs running Windows 11 can meet the same security the DoD depends on only when the devices have the minimum system requirements. This was detailed in an earlier post that explains the TPM 2.0 requirement for the latest generation Windows 11 OS.
