why would you be sure you'll install Windows 12?

I'm not, my post said this isn't an issue till 12, as in, I'm not even considering 11, but I will consider 12.

That said, you can't stay on 10 forever without losing modern software support and modern drivers and security updates after EOL... So you basically HAVE to move at some point. My point was just in not touching 11. But it's unlikely that you'll be able to keep a Win 10 device running till 13 so... It's either 11 or 12 and with the way Microsofts cycles go, 12 likely will be better than 11.

If not... Well... Maybe Linux and proton will have caught up and Nvidia will actually make drivers etc etc. But not worth worrying about that yet.
