Microsoft will officially release Windows 11 on October 5, 2021

Microsoft officially announced that it will start pushing Windows 11 on October 5, 2021. All eligible Windows 10 PCs will be upgraded to Windows 11 for free, and various PC devices pre-installed with Windows 11 will also be available for sale. I believe that major manufacturers will follow up at that time, and it also means that the launch of the Intel Alder Lake-S processor is not far away.

According to Microsoft, the official launch of Windows 11 does not mean that all Windows 10 PCs that meet the requirements can be upgraded to Windows 11 immediately. Microsoft’s push and upgrade will be carried out in phases. It is estimated that by the middle of 2022, all eligible devices can be upgraded to Windows 11 for free.

Windows 11 Dev Build 22000.51

Windows 11 has brought many new designs. Microsoft has already made a lot of introductions at the June conference, including a new UI, window arrangement mode, game enhancements, and a new Microsoft Store, etc. Due to the requirements of TPM 2.0, it once caused a lot of controversies. However, Microsoft recently confirmed that even if the computer does not meet the requirements, users can still install manually, but will not automatically update.

Microsoft said that Windows 11 will bring gamers the best Windows operating system ever, and use DirectX12 Ultimate, DirectStorage, and Auto HDR technologies to give full play to the potential of the hardware. Through Xbox Game Pass for PC or Ultimate, players will be able to play more than 100 high-quality games on Windows 11 at a very low monthly fee.

After Microsoft officially pushes Windows 11, I believe many gamers will look forward to Intel’s official release of the 12th-generation Core series processors at the end of this year. As Intel’s first x86 desktop processor with big.LITTLE hybrid architecture, Windows 11 has optimized it, and its computing performance is very interesting.
