Fidelizer on Windows 10 v2004 (May 2020 Update) Update Report

Hello everyone. Windows 10 v2004 update was out for a while and I spent a long time testing since this update has very good sound quality improvements over previous v1909 update. It has the new kernel from 20H1 base fixing some flaws in v1909 version.

To make sure this is properly tested, I installed a new v2004 update on SSD drive to test with my server and swap out with v1909 and v1903 which took like a week or two to conclude as below.

Windows 10 v2004 update has everything I complained in v1909 fixed. Bass articulation is better than ever and musicality is very good. Although it seem to have a bit of refined smoothness sound signature but still delivery very good performance.

For higher quality performance, I still prefer v1903 for better transparency and imaging that can demonstrate stereo image better but musicality on v2004 is very close to v1511 which is Nimitra’s reference platform for a long while.

  1. Threshold (v1507) – By very small margin
  2. Threshold 2 (v1511) / May 2019 Update (v1903)
  3. May 2020 Update (v2004)
  4. Spring Creators Update (v1803)
  5. November 2019 Update (v1909)
  6. October 2018 Update (v1809)
  7. Creators Update (v1703)
  8. Fall Creators Update (v1709)
  9. Anniversary Edition (v1607)

The first 20H1 update is clearly a good start and highly recommended to upgrade over v1909. You won’t miss much from v1903 too and don’t forget to re-apply Fidelizer Pro optimizations after major Windows Update to make sure Fidelizer is running with 100% optimizations. 🙂
