Circulated Windows 11 game performance loss 30%?Actually test it, the result is not like this

The Windows 11 system has recently opened the update push. Fortunate users have received the push and have experienced the update. Earlier, some media broke the news that Windows 11 will have a small improvement in gaming, bringing a more stable gaming performance experience, but is this really the case?

Recently, the foreign media Tom’s Hardware conducted gameplay tests on the two new security features of Windows 11, VBS and HVCI. The result is that due to the security features, it has up to 30% performance in special environments. loss.

Through the test of Tom’s Hardware, it is found that the safety functions VBS and HVCI not only cause a certain performance loss, but the loss is based on different CPU brands and models. Fixed.

After several tests, it was found that when VBS and HVCI were turned on, the game performance obviously dropped. Although there was no online circulation as high as 30%, but The maximum performance loss of 8.6% is also very alarming.

It is worth mentioning that the performance loss is particularly obvious on the Intel platform, and most games have reached 5% and above. Moreover, after turning on VBS and HVCI, the 11th-generation i7 even lags behind the 10th-generation i7 without security features.

For AMD platforms, the performance loss is high or low, and even some games are almost unaffected. With the huge gap between Zen2 and Zen3, the performance loss has not been eliminated, and the performance advantage of Zen3 over the 11th generation i7 still exists.

We can guess that the reason for the high hardware requirements of the Windows 11 system may come from the forced TPM 2.0 security certification. The new security authentication method seriously affects performance.

Fortunately, Windows 11 generally does not enable VBS and HVCI by default except for special circumstances and OEM customized systems. If you find that the computer performance is abnormal after upgrading Windows 11, you can check whether it is caused by turning on the security function.
