I'm unsure who's the target audience of that video.
One one hand, those who will be up to modify some files to fool Windows will probably have systems that pass all the requirements or, if not, are on the verge of upgrading. Meanwhile, I feel like those with older PCs that may not pass all the check-ins are less likely to modify files just to get a newer OS which they don't need.
So, yeah, good video, and it's good to know that there are ways to get W11 to work, but I doubt it will be something many will even attempt.

If true, next generation of GPUs are going to get even more interesting than we once thought. Especially if Lovelace will be using TSMC's 5nm instead of Samsung as that would put Nvidia on a node parity against AMD. But RDNA3 still might have an advantage with their Chiplets design. The other interesting thing if the rumour is legit would be AMD doubling their infinity cache where as Nvidia looking to continue with their higher memory bus/bandwidth route.
Hopefully, unlike the TI series which more so slots in between cards these days, the Super series will replace cards with more performance. We will see though! AMD Raphael Zen4 Based CPUs Rumored To Only Have 16 Cores https://wccftech.com/amd-raphael-zen4-based-cpus-rumored-to-only-have-16-cores/ Of course, if it's 16 big cores vs Intels half big and half small cores, then it really won't matter as long as those 16 cores perform better. https://twitter.com/greymon55/status/1415112419374878725?s=20 |
I doubt the 16 cores for Zen4 will be a problem. If you need more than that, you're not an ordinary user and you may do better getting a Threadripper system.
The 30 series refresh is interesting. We'll see how much performance can they squeeze from Samsung and those chips. If they're made by Samsung, of course.
As for RDNA3... I think sticking with a 192/256-bit bus is a mistake. It's clear that the cache helps a lot, it's easy to see it at 1080p, but if we move to higher resolutions we can see that the performance advantage drops fast, all it's because memory bus can't fed the cache fast enough. That's why all the advantage Navi cards have at 1080p disappear at 1440p, and then they lose at 4K.
Increasing the cache size will help, of course, but they really need to beef up the memory bus at the same time to avoid bottlenecks.
