Well on my Lenovo P15 Gen 1, Windows 11 is substantially more responsive than Ubuntu. I had been running Ubuntu on it for a couple years and switched over to Windows to play some games. I was shocked. And games aside, I mean desktop, vs code, etc, non-GPU heavy things.
- longhinidas 2y agoProbably you were suffering from CPU throttle, trying with thinkfan and throotled projects should match or exceed your (non GPU) related problem
- bongodongobob 2y agoMy CPU was no where near being throttled. I'm talking about basic desktop responsiveness.
- longhinidas 2y agoIt could be, by default no turbo boost is enabled, and after a few activities you should feel the lag and maybe unresponsiveness of using small amount of CPU power, I can be bad guessing, but using some Intel CPUs after 8th generation, this was a recurrent problem. In summary, it feels like an underpowered machine; then enable turbo boost, starts to heat up and feel the new kind of unresponsiveness, nice until there is to much heat (like 60 celsius); then, unlock the fan to keep the temp low, this recover a little bit of responsiveness, but that temp limit seems low; then, you get throttled in to play, with it you can play with the limit up to 98 celsius, so you can have a better experience overall and tweak your preference.
