Not windows 10.
- KozmoNau7 9y agoW10 runs fine on my laptop, a Thinkpad T440 with an i5-4300U, 8GB RAM and SSD. W10 does a fair few things wrong, but performance is not really one of them, unless you're on a Pentium 4 or something.
- krutzger 9y agoI converted a similar laptop from win10 to Ubuntu and now it is all cool and quiet. Windows seem to require many many CPU cycles just to update itself and index files (yet cortana never seems to find anything, but that's another discussion).
- pletnes 9y agoA significant fraction of the time, win10 is indexing files, running antivirus scans, running win update (multiple times a day), etc. This will often pin 1-2 cores. On my dual core i7 laptop from 2016. That’s not good performance. Since I also use ubuntu on a daily basis, I can see the benefits pretty clearly.
