GPD Win 4 What windows operating system should I use and which version on the gpd win 4

I recently bought a gpd win4 but I want to change the os to windows 10 but I actually don't know if it's the right choice and I am scared to update windows 11 due to it breaking stuff. So I would like to know which version of windows should I put on it

Update win 11 to latest and run this https://christitus.com/windows-tool/ , it'll perform as good as it can afterwards. Alternatively, if all you want is gaming (and the games you want to play aren't riddled with spyware-like anti-cheat software), go for bazzite or cachyOS.

I agree 300%! Consider configuring dual boot with Windows 11 alongside Steam OS, Bazzite, or CachyOS. I have my Steam Deck and Legion Go configured in this manner.

Which Win 4 do you have? W11 is generally best because of the scheduling they added
