Windows 11 Enables Full Screen Experience Mode

Microsoft's Windows 11 Full Screen Experience (FSE), currently in Windows Insider builds, reduced roughly 2 GB of RAM in testing by YouTuber ETA Prime on a laptop with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050. Benchmarks with Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p Ultra showed negligible FPS differences versus desktop mode, and Microsoft may refine the feature before public release as it targets living-room and handheld scenarios.
Key Points
- 1Demonstrates roughly 2 GB RAM reduction in FSE versus desktop on an RTX 5050 laptop
- 2Reduces background processes, benefiting systems with limited RAM or shared integrated graphics
- 3Enables console-like game-centric interface but requires Insider builds; expect refinements before release
Scoring Rationale
Minor but practical product update with measurable memory savings, limited by Insider-only availability and modest performance impact.
