Installing Tiny 11 on a pure gaming build ?
Can installing Tiny 11 instead of the normal Windows 11 on a pure gaming build (meaning I will do nothing on that sytem other than game), be a good idea? so as to use the least amount of resources possible. Or bad idea?
I would not install it on my main system. Because I never know when I would need the normal features and updates.

No. it is not recommended for gaming

If the system is to be used only for gaming, then Tiny 11 can definitely be considered as it is bloatware-free and has fewer background processes, which can give a performance boost. But it is important to check compatibility, especially if you need anti-cheat software or modern game updates — some features or services may be missing. Doing a test install and checking benchmarks would be the best approach.

Tiny11 is not a good choice for gaming. You can play it for testing purpose.
