Any clubic player would undoubtedly agree to compare two machines as close as possible on which the two systems have installed in turn to carry out the measurements. Then, only, it would have been possible to proclaim loud and clear – or to say nothing at all if the result was not going in the “good” meaning – which came out victorious.
No, for Microsoft, the duel is done by comparing ” A selection of Windows 10 PCs equipped with the 6th, 8th and 10th generation Intel Core processors to Windows 11 PCs equipped with 12th and 13th generation Intel Core processors ». At least Microsoft is honored to add that ” Performances vary considerably depending on the device, parameters, conditions of use and other factors ».
So, it is true that Intel is sometimes broken on the number of instructions per cycle of its latest processors, but compare PCs based on Core i5-6200U to PC animated by a Core i7-1335u, you had to think about it! Microsoft takes the opportunity to compare the autonomy of the laptops used and comes out with a shiny: ” The best Windows 11 PCs have up to 2.7 hours of autonomy […] more than Windows 10 PCs ».
Microsoft’s conclusion obviously has no meaning. The comparison is made here more in terms of hardware than software and we will not even talk about the total absence of any AMD processor. No, all this is brilliant!
