I don't know, with 64GB 6000mhz RAM and Ryzen 9 7950X processor, things are instant for me on Windows 11, and even faster on Windows 10. Surely nobody runs on Windows on any lesser system?
- anthk 4y agoGet Virtualbox. Install Windows 2000 or XP or an old Linux with KDE 3.15 on it. Notice the lack of latency, notice how it flies and there's no delay on displaying the widgets and typing on a text editor or a word processor.
- M95D 4y agoI hate to say it to you, but there a VERY BIG latency on anything newer than Win95! VERY BIG. The Win95 Explorer is the last that doesn't have Internet Explorer embedded in it. It keeps the whole start menu in memory. Starting with Win98 (or was it Win95OSR2? - can't remebember) they added IE into everything. From then on, opening the start menu requires a disk read. Also, you can't really experience the no-latency speed of Win95 if you use virtualization. You probably got used to Win7/10/11 latency so much, that even WinXP with virtualisation feels fast. Trust me: that isn't fast.
- anthk 4y agow98 could be debloated, the same with w95 without that sp. On XP, well, with the classic theme it can run pretty fast. But I woudn't use propietary OSes today except for nostalgia experiments on secluded VM's.
- integricho 4y agoYes, that's exactly the feel I'd like to have with a modern operating system also!

- AtlasBarfed 4y agoDid you recently install? Wait a year. I'm a linux home user, does Windows still do that slow-down-gradually thing?
- askonomm 4y agoHonestly no clue, built this machine a few months ago, and built it with the thought that even an inefficient OS would not be able to get slow anytime soon.
