Windows 11 starts giving custom advice based on your PC hardware

Back in March, one Twitter user leaked a new Windows 11 24H2 feature that tells you whether your PC hardware is powerful enough to handle demanding tasks like gaming and video editing. Now, that feature is being tested via Windows Insiders and will roll out to all regular Windows 11 24H2 users in the coming weeks, reports Windows Latest.

This new feature can be found in the Settings app as a special FAQ section in the About page (accessible via Settings > System > About). In that FAQ area, you’ll see expandable questions like:

• “Am I running the latest version of the Windows OS? What is the latest Windows version?”
• “How does having 8-16 GB of RAM impact my PC’s performance? Can I run modern applications smoothly with this RAM capacity?”
• “What is a GPU? I don’t have a dedicated GPU, how does its absence impact gaming and graphical performance?”
• “Is my GPU sufficient for high-end gaming and video experience? How can having a dedicated GPU enhance my experience and productivity?”

When you expand a question, Windows provides answers that are personalized to the very hardware in your system and will flat-out tell you if it’s sufficient or insufficient for various scenarios. They’re pretty generic, as you can tell, but the fact that they’re tweaked and customized for your PC makes this feature pretty useful potentially.
